I've been super-busy with work this week (averaging 14-hour work days). I should have a few days of peace coming soon, and I'll see what I can do with finding an alternate server.
As for deleting the 34-civ DLL, I think that might save 1 or 2 megs out of a 118-meg download... I don't think that would solve any server space issues. The "meat" of my download is not the DLL, but rather the graphics FPK which contains all the new unit graphics (the FPK is over 200-megs uncompressed). Deleting that would make the mod essentially pointless.
