I am looking at my Civ 2 graphics. The submarine unit does not look anything
like the sub unit you eliminated. In fact your replacement has an uncanny

to the silver sub I see in units.gif in my Civ 2 directory.

The originals were from Civ 2? I'm wondering how come Microprose has not
cracked down on C-evo.
