The following zipped attachment contains the five bitmap files needed to load this new set of Petersburg 2D unit graphical modifications. It is important to know that there are two sets of 2DSymbols files that come with the game. This set is meant to replace the default set, not the "a" (alternate) set.

Open the zip file to your desktop or protected place. Go first into the Info folder your Campaign Petersburg file and relabel the Leaderbox and Unitbox bitmap files as Leaderbox1.bmp and Unitbox1.bmp. This will preserve the original files for re-installation should you not prefer the mods. Copy and paste the new Leaderbox and Unitbox bitmap files into the Info folder.

Then go into the Map Folder of your Campaign Petersburg file and relabel the 2DSymbols25, 2DSymbols50 and 2DSymbols100 bitmap files as 2DSymbols251.bmp, 2DSymbols501.bmp and 2DSymbols1001.bmp. This will preserve the original files for re-installation should you not prefer the mods. Copy and past the new 2DSymbols25, 2DSymbols50 and 2DSymbols100 bitmap files into the Map folder.

When you are finished you should see three different sets of 2DSymbols files: the new default set, the "a" alternate set and the "1" former default set. These sets can rest within the folder without any disruption to the game.

After you've had a chance to use these mods let me know how you liked them.
