The author used the units found on www.civfanatics.com,
so all credit due goes to the creators of these brilliant units -
including danrell, Chugginator, Bakuel, bernie14, asioasioasio, Rabbit, White,
sepamu92, Zerver, GarretSidzaka, C.Roland, AlazkanAssassin, Ploeperpengel,
seZereth, Cham, GeneralMatt, Polycrates, snafusmith
and forgive me if left out someone(as I have, I'm sure), but pretty much all
of the civfanatics unit db was used, so thanks to all the unit makers!

Special mention:
- Gedemon - valuable error-findings!
- Polycrates for his insights and units!
- mamba for BtS 3.13 patch info
- Amuroray for his buttons fix
