I had this problem too. It took me a while to figure it out. go to Program Files/Firaxis games, or Infrogames(i have heard both)/Civilization III/Art/Units

once you are there, make a folder, and make sure it is spelled the same way you want it to be spelled when it shows up in the game, and paste all the unit information in that folder, (i.e.-fortify, death, attack, victory)

there is another file, subtitled configuration settings. This will be the only one inside the new unit folder you will rename, and make sure it is the exact same as the unit folder and how you want it to turn up in the game.

After that just make a mod, add that unit (with the same exact name) and play. It should work, sorry if i confused you more, i can do that sometimes.
