Here are some Napoleonic units. Most are historically correct.
The ones I have posted are just a very tiny number of the HUGE number of graphics that have been for Civ2. As you can see, the art is very good.

I would suggest that work currently being done on Civ2 (a 1996 game) can rival most turn-based games currently on the market.
There are lots of highly talented individuals who have freely devoted their time to doing thousands of graphics for civ2. This also includes new events, sounds, scenarios, etc...

Very nice Warfare1, I would even say those graphics rival the upcoming Crown of Glory unit graphics. Well done.
So, you need to find a place to upload your modded graphics so others can enjoy those fine quality graphics that want them. Whoever did them did some very good and detailed work for sure. I just don't have the patience or time to piddle with coloring though. Heck I never was even good with a coloring book as a kid, give me a brown crayon an every page was brown. lol

A friend of mine still loves playing Civ 2. Any chance you could e-mail me your modified graphics set in a zip file?

Erik:
I am currently updating the Civ2 default units file. I am a bit anal about getting the graphics just right. I haven't done so in a while, and I found some good graphics.
Hang in a bit, OK?
Also, if anyone has some webspace, I would like to post these graphics for everyone. They will be for the default game, and will involve very comprehensive graphics, with the total file size being about 2-3mb.

I found a link of someones who has done 500 unit graphics models. Don't seem to be the quality that Warfare1 has shown, but, different models and colors none the less.

Ok, good news.
I found a place where I can host the civ2 graphics.
So, over the next few days I will be updating the civ2 default units file. I will be adding new graphics, and I will then be tweaking the artwork a bit. I like to have things just so [;)]
When everything's done, I will put together a package of graphic files that will give a nice facelift to that 1996 game many of you are still playing.
I still play Civ2 MGE, and the new graphics really make a difference.

Personally, I could look at artwork like this all day long. It is truly amazing what is being done for this 9 year old game.
Some American Civil War units:
Historically correct units for the Battle of Gettysburg:

Nah, Eric and Marc hijacked it after my 3rd post talking about the cost of graphics.
This new game even without state of the art graphics definitely has the detail of a good game, will have to wait and see how it plays out.
Then Warfare1 came in with the CIV2 graphics after I stated that it didn't have state of the art graphics by todays standards, but, is still a highly praised and still played game. Proving my point it doesn't take state of the art graphics to have a great game. Just great gameplay with longevity.

I stand corrected...your cost analysis topic appeared because the original WatP topic was played out.....then the Civ2 graphics took over because your cost cost analysis topic was played out.....now I understand....[:D]
