rP23422: Delete duplicate and deprecated unit icons.
Summary

This patch is a follow-up to D985/rP20677, rP22748, and D2582/rP23421.

  • It deletes unused icons that have been deprecated.
  • It deletes icons that were duplicates
  • It moves hele icons that are only used by athen
  • It renames several others for consistency
  • It replaces Themistocles's new icon with a very old portrait (have a look at them).
  • It updates the affected templates accordingly (checked with perl checkrefs.pl --validate_templates)

Similar: D2551

Test Plan

Check that the icons are actually moved or deleted.

For the ones using an incorrect civ, wouldn't it make more sense to duplicate the icon to have both brit and celt, mace and athen etc?

Maybe, though that would mean having two exactly identical images. Wasn't it your intention to try reducing the download size?

Only by removing unused things. We might want to check if delenda_est doesn't have an updated icon too.

Keep in mind many ship, siege, and support units currently share a single icon for templates of different civs.

True. I was suggesting that because we are changing it :)

Personally I think icons ought to match the actor. The ptol archer uses the mace actor, which looks the same as the athen actor, so it would make sense for all three to use the same icon.
Both brit and gaul slinger deserve a new icon, I believe their actors were separated and updated last year.
