• Due to software difficulties, the Treasure Ship is currently using another in-game model instead. The attack animation is somehow problematic. If you can provide assistance to convert/import 3D models, please let me know.
• UPDATE: Treasure Ship now has a proper model! The model is created for Civilization IV by GeneralMatt, converted for Civilization V by wolfdog, imported as Civilization VI model by IthildinX. Many thanks to all modders involved.
• The model uses the same animation as Frigate, so it has a "swinging tail" motion when the ship ends its movement like other Frigates.
