The tank on the right hand side is some sort of early WW@ tank. My guess would be the French Hotchkiss H35. The other one on the left could be some sort of early WW2 british tank ( a 10 or mk2 ) Im not too sure about this one though

Thanks very much Snapcase for all you have done to bring these screenshots and units to us. You sure went beyond the call of duty!

No permanent enemies, no permanent friends.
'There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and principalities, it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.'"
G'Kar - from Babylon 5 episode "Z'ha'dum"
My guess would be that this is Aztec special unit. In that case,
Would be most probably Babylonian or Egyptian unit. (Guard or something.)

The second frigate should be either a carrack or a caravel.
I believe that the tank on the bottom left is a Soviet design, possibly a T-55 or a T-34 (I'm not that great with tanks)

Lets see,
(1) the viking longship really looks like the longship from CtP 1&2
(2)the galleon looks like the ship of the line from CtP 1&2
(3)the catapult looks just like the catapult from CtP2
Alright! I always wished I'd have a version of CtP2 that would work . . .

May be I´m completely wrong, but doesn´t the "tank" at the bottom left look like a modern M2/M3 APC?
BTW, I like most of the units, but not the chariot. The civ2 chariot came completely without horses, ToT and the new Civ3 with one horse, a bit better, but most ancient chariots had two horse (or even more). It´s just a detail, but since the other units look right, why not the chariot?
I think that the tank on the bottom left is an APC (armored personnel carrier). If you look at the tanks gun, its thin, indicating that its a machine gun. Only APC's have turrets with only a machine gun on them. The tanks torso is also to tall to be a regular tank. Most tanks are built shorter as to offer a lower profile for the enemy to shoot at. Only APC's have such a tall body, nessary for carrying troops. If my guess is right, I wonder if this means this is some sort of land tarnsport. Will it opperate like a normal unit or will it be able to carry infintry?
I wouldn't have the slightest idea about most of the units, but I think many of them look quite fancy... that screenshot I have seen recently had some bad touch though...
The tank in the Bottom Left hand corner is a Sherman tank, I am pretty sure because it stood out to me because we learned about tanks in History class.
