It's in the pre-release info: 'Units strength will be represented by the number of units. At full strength, a unit will have three units, and when it takes damage it loses a single unit until it is destroyed.'Belboz said:
You can see it happening in the Immortals video.

True, but there are only two chariots in the chariots movie and only one helicopter in the gunship movie. It's probably not significant, but I was curious if some units only have one or two icons per square even at full strength, and if so, if this changes the mechanics of combat for those units.

Did you notice the last line of that page under Coming Soon: 'CIV fans should keep visiting this portion of the site as there will be much more content coming soon including the official Civilization IV fansite kit.'

On second thought, there seems to be an awful lot of singing in the music

I assume the chariot and the gunship already had taken some damage from a previous battle so they started this one with less than three units in the unit.Belboz said:

Since there are 3 units in the still shot, I would assume this is correct.darkdude said:

Wait, I don't think I ever saw more than one unit in a tank unit at the same time in a screenshot and also the still shots only give one unit in the unit for gunship and tank, so maybe my assumption was correct only for the chariot. Maybe the tank and gunship are depicted after all with only one unit in the unit. And looking back at some screenshots the workers always seem to come with two units in the unit.joethreeblah said:
So the next assumption is: explorer, scout, worker: two units in a unit; tank, gunship, icbm: one unit in a unit; Military units where you see bodies: three units in a unit.

There is a distinct lack of muzzle flashes for the modern units. The infantry just go *bang* and apparently shoot the guys directly in the face, but there's no real animation.
The galley battle is pretty lame too.
However, it all looks really impressive and I'm really excited!

Awesome site. Hey, did anybody else notice that the Game Info page has background music from Civ I?? They upgraded that music with the flute instead of a MIDI synthesiser! I thought that was awesome. Oh yeah, the rest of the site is good, just needs the rest of the leaderheads.

Not bad. My only problem is that they say Julius Caesar was the first Roman Emperor. This is not true Augustus(Octavian) Caesae was the actuall first emperor.
