This is an M2/M3 Bradley.

It's most likely a "Mech Infantry" unit, because most mech infantry (US) drive in either humvees or Bradleys.

The second one might be an old tank, if you remember the CGW screenshot, there was a bi-plane in the city-screen. Maybe this is the early tank and then your armored units upgrade to Panzers, then M1 Abrams units. Well its an idea.

Definitely M2 Bradley! first I suspected British Warrior but it isn't.



First I thought this as French Somua tank because of its small round turret but I changed my mind after I saw the wheels. It is M4 Sherman. This is so poorly drawn.



Looks like WWII era Anti-tank gun. could be British 6 pounder or German 35mm/pak.



Norman? see his nose covering helmet with round shiled and red long hair.



Double-convexed composite bow man. probably middle eastern origin.



Arquebusier see the arquebus rest.



His helmet looks like Babylonian.



A knight right see the emblem of the shield. A crusader would have a cross on the shield.




Don't you guys think the edges of the turret are too rounded?

look at this! how sharp edged it is!



and the panzer is PzIII not a PzIV if you count the number of wheels, you know.

About the rounded edges on the Abrams, the Firaxis unit pics show the same roundedness. These are really just general pics for a computer game, not unit recognition for real militaries, so some artistic license is allowed with real world units

I know what you mean but the tank is surely ugly.

I think it might be a non Roman legion. As the Roman legion is a specific unit there shall be something fore every civ that is close to it, but not as good as it.

To me this looks like a Germanic barbarian of some sort, as long as that is an animal skin around his head and shoulders. If it is armor, then that's an entirely different story.
