Well, I made a little table of promotions to facilitate the guesses and speculations. Some of the unit promotions we know for sure from the video on Gamespot; most, we don't know. Or I don't know. Feel free to contribute here. I'll try to keep this updated.

Sorry, I have to break this up into multiple posts... Otherwise, the forums complain about there being too many images in the post...

Hey Zoid, we have an untrained gorilla, and he claims to be King of Sweden. Or maybe the King of Sweden groaning as a gorilla... Zoo or azilum?

Besides monkeys, there are some screenshots from Firaxis' news on their website (maybe something to be found there): http://www.firaxis.com/community/e3.php

What I got up here is taken straight from the Promotions Civilipedia page. The one that aren't blue I imagine are actions, not promotions, like the skull is disband, thingey with the flag is fortify, etc.

Updated with some of these guesses. Also, I'm thinking maybe this:

is the paratroop ability?

Here are 3 more from that picture of the E3 screen. Can't really tell what the first and third are. The second appears to be mobility related. The reddish background may be for penalties instead of bonuses. There is a reddish background symbol with a skull on it which I didn't zoom and cut.

The middle one is a symbol in Civ3. I can't remember what it is, but it isn't anything more complext than fortify or disband.

They are just orders, not promotions. Like I said above, the list I posted is from the video showing the Civilopedia listing of promotions, so it is pretty much exhaustive and complete as of E3.

Maybe I should list the orders we've seen in the videos and screenies somewhere too, though.

I think the crossed knifes will be some kind of close combat bonus.

Many icons will have a meaning only in the industry and
modern tech ages, which we know nothing about!

As it says above, the stuff in gray is just guesses, not anything from the videos. The confirmed promotions are in black.
