Attention : Next update happens to be save-breaking. (#35)

Hi everyone

I decided to make some big changes to the infantry, and i am removing units from the game, and replacing some. This means any save containing these units will be broken/corrupted.

For custom maps, if some of you made some, I'd recommend clearing it from all units to avoid any incompatibilities. If there is no units, it map should be fine ;)
UPDATE : I made more changes (to get even more better performances, especially on big maps) and custom maps you made will be broken as well. Sorry.

I decided to change all infantry type to something simpler, I did not like to have infantry represented by their weapon name, so for all country there now will be : Light infantry, MG team, Mortar team, Engineers, AT infantry. And that's it. German have a SS infantry division though.

Next update update will bring some fix, a patch for the resupply cost because it is way too expensive to resupply anything right now.
It will also include a new map, the whole eastern front. Size is 280x180, over 240 VPs and 170 cities with their name.
I also worked on implementing time going forward. As of now, one turn = 7 days, but I'll probably let the player modify this value in the map editor settings of the map.

See you this evening !
