All tags must be opened and closed; the first is the 'open', the second the 'closed' tag. If nothing goes inside a 'list tag', then it should just be the opening tag with a / before the closing bracket.

Text Tags

<UnitInfos></UnitInfos> This begins and ends the file. Everything must go in between these two, or it will not work.

<UnitInfo></UnitInfo> Each different unit's data is enclosed in a seperate tag like this.

<Class></Class> The class as defined in CIV4UnitClassInfos.xml. Class is the thing that holds, say, a Swordsman and a Praetorian together; each civilisation can only have one of each class.

<Type></Type> The unit's in-game name, which must be unique.

<UniqueNames/> Only ever a closing tag, this must be put in after the <Type></Type> tag to show that the unit's 'name' is now finished.

<Special></Special> Should be NONE unless the unit is in one of your special categories in CIV4SpecialUnitInfos.xml; in which case put that in.

<Capture></Capture> Should be NONE unless the unit can be captured, in which case it is the class of the unit which appears when it is captured

<Combat></Combat> Shows the unit's combat, out of UNITCOMBAT_MELEE, UNITCOMBAT_ARCHER, UNITCOMBAT_MOUNTED, UNITCOMBAT_GUN, UNITCOMBAT_SIEGE, UNITCOMBAT_NAVAL, UNITCOMBAT_AIR and UNITCOMBAT_HELICOPTER

<Domain></Domain> DOMAIN_, then AIR, SEA or LAND. Shows whether the unit is an air, sea or land unit.

<DefaultUnitAI></DefaultUnitAI> How the AI uses the unit, by default.

<Invisible></Invisible> Either NONE, INVISIBLE_SUBMARINE or INVISIBLE_STEALTH. If it is not NONE, then the value is what sort of invisibility it has (see below)

<SeeInvisible></SeeInvisible> NONE, or else the sort of invisible unit (see above) that it can see.

<Description></Description> The name of the unit as displayed on screen. Can either be text or a tag from another file. If it is not out of a text database, the computer will read what is in here.

<Civilopedia></Civilopedia> As above; the entry in the Civilopedia for the unit.

<Strategy></Strategy> The Sid's Tips, as above. Also displayed at the top of the Civilopedia entry

<Advisor></Advisor> The advisor that will chip in (normally ADVISOR_MILITARY) when building this unit is a good idea.
