im assuming 18 rotting peasant was used as a scenery item, not a unit... (open mesh 18)

the text above the units is done through scripting, read the 1.7.2 readme it's in there somewhere...

In that link Gizmo posted scroll down to the New Map Making Features on page 14. Look for the "2. CTRL to set unit overhead text." section.

I opened the mesh 18, "rotted peasant" is scenery item, ok.
interesting in "FEAR", also, is listed as a unit.
it seems, not have much use as a unit. spinning around itself. when attacked, and killed, appears "Dying: peasant body". this unit is poor.

that's it... :D
