Hm, haven't you been asking the very same qestion here (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=306629) already ? And got both a link to a tutorial and the advice that this is the wrong forum ?

If you cannot figure it out with a tutorial, I advise you download a mod instead (like mine, or Varietas Delectat (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=237192) or Wolfshanze (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=249129)) instead of adding units manually. If you still want to add certain units, take a look at how we did it :)

You should put it in a mod underneath the Mods dir of where you installed Civ. In that mod it goes underneath the Assets/Art dir. In your case that would be C:\Program Files\Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\Beyond the Sword\Mods\<WhateverMod>\Assets\Art\<Unitdirs>. Of course you will then still need to set up the required xml, as described in the tutorial.

Oh, and stop asking in this forum, this is not the right place.

EDIT: You are lucky, I did create the xml for the unit a while ago and posted it in another thread, get it there (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showpost.php?p=6716312&postcount=68).
