The yellow minus was actually to signify 'wounded' (as in they attacked and wounded your unit, but it survived).
The crossed swords then symbolized that it was a deliberate attack, not simply defending.

Ah. I had interpreted the yellow +/- as "unit is created / destroyed for an unusual reason" (e.g. yellow + = e_unit_buy = unit created by (yellow) gold; so yellow - = e_unit_lost_misc = for instance, because of failure to provide gold upkeep).

A picture saying "we took some damage" seems a bit downbeat to accompany "Your Warriors survived the pathetic attack from the Polish Destroyer". (Perhaps the picture is our advisors' way of communicating effectively despite the triumphalist propaganda that must be used in official reports ;) ) I'm not sure what could be used instead to denote "survival" though... I agree it's better if crossed-swords accompany only active attacks.

I've reverted my changes in the proposed patch for now.

Alright, here's a new version.
Reorganized the whole thing because I ran out of room.
I've not made a new spec file yet.

Retouched:
City Transfer
Unit Transfer
Out of Money
My Spy Steal Gold/Bribe
My Diplomat Establish Embassy
Enemy Spy Steal Gold/Bribe
Enemy Diplomat Establish Embassy
Diplomacy

Added:
Unit Defend (Unit with a shield) (to replace the old one, which can now be used for 'unit lost misc')
Unit Escaped (Wheel with speed lines)
Unit Was Expelled (Cyan)
Unit Did Expel (Yellow)
My Spy Nuke
My Spy Steal Map
Embassy Was Ejected (White)
Enemy Spy Nuke
Enemy Spy Steal Map
Embassy Did Eject (Black)
[White is for 'my diplomat' and black is for 'their diplomat'. Only they're being acted upon instead of doing the act for this.]

Now patch #7639.

There's one new event on trunk, e_beginner_help. I've picked the yellow exclamation mark; that'll probably do.
