9.5.3 Hotfix

Misc:
Reverted state limit to 999. (solved immunity issue
involving new status effects)
Enemies no longer crash when they enrage.

Dev note: pushing the engine past 999 states caused
extreme discombobulation. Working in the 999 state limit
will bring some challenges in the coming years, but they
can be overcome. There is still some room for new states,
as well as many states that aren't being used at all.

9.5.2 Misc

New Features:
Added 7 new late game enemies.
Increased database limits for enemies, troops, states,
common events, and animations from 999 to 3000.

Balancing:
Ogre Virus is now Silicon Ogre.
Balance is now Expressive Dancer.
Additional enemies now cast acid and arcane spells.
Some enemies now cast entropy and expression spells.
Buffed health to both librarian bosses by almost 50%.

Misc:
Fixed various state issues involving silicon, acid, and arcane.
(these issues were caused by a long ago deleted system that
was still providing immunity to those states) (all future states
will placed after 999)

Edit: Reverted back to 9.5.1. The database increase to states caused a commonly occuring crashing bug. 9.5.3 hotfix will be later today.
