Now recon units (ground only obviously) will first try to get in range of their visibility, so like they’ll get 2 tiles from the victory point, they’ll do their recon that way, then move and capture if they can / the city is empty. For generals, they’ll stay out of range, at the very limit. Oh well and I did the same for ships ! So they don’t stack in front of the land and let ground troops perform landings :)

- Change : USA engineers and heavy infantry graphics swap.

- Fix : Partisans surrendered right after they got attacked.
