What do you intend to use a sickle for? The workers don't reap crops of course. I assume it is for clearing jungle? That seems to be the most similar action.
Incidentally the Angolan socialists put a machete on their flag a replacement for the sickle as an agrarian symbol.

I saw a commerical where they had the florida communist party and their symbol was a sickle and a palm tree. It was for fun of coarse, not a real communist party symbol or group, just a stupid commericial. But it was funny.

Does anyone know if you can make the animation and icons change for units based upon culture, the same way you can do for buildings?
We all know that you can for units by era, just by looking at settlers, workers, leaders and armies in the vanilla game and by this tutorial.
But is it possible to change this type of thing by culture? So that the "Aztec Worker" would be used by the American cultural group, the "Celtic Worker" would be used the European cultural group, and the "Indian Worker" would be used by the Middle Eastern cultural group?
That would make these units a lot easier and better to use in game, imho.

Irrigate animation?
I'm going to use a sickle for the Jungle, and also as part of his costume.
[wolf brother] You can do better than that - you can have a different worker for every civ if you want. In the Units page of the Rules editor you can specify which civs are able to build a unit. So you could, for example, add in the Aztec Worker and make it available only to the Mesoamerican civs. Then you could add in the Roman Worker and make that available only to the Mediterranean civs. And so on. If you want all the various workers to be called simply "worker", so they really differ only in their graphics, you will have to add spaces to the names to differentiate them - "worker", "worker ", "worker ", and so on.

I just saw the title of that thread and never read it, I assumed it was about the spaces. Cool, thanks kai! 
You can also use Gramphos copy tool to just makes as many copies of the workers as you have same, and keep the same name
IT may be confusing, but it works.
In my mod, I'm adding a "code" in the name
so US_01S # Worker
Is the worker for the American save, first era.

Yes. With more than 3000 units, I decided it was the best way to keep it managable
I do.
But I also take years to make my mods
