LST - changed build tech to 145 (from 245)

Ships
GS  - added gun ship (at tech 30)
PT  - removed torp
BB  - moved to tech 55 (from 45), speed increased a notch to compensate.
DD  - decreased firing range.
SH  - (sub hunter) added at tech 95, similar to original DD but without unit/xlplane capability.

Nukes
Research required to build nukes, equal to the tech of the nuke.
Fission units moved to start at tech 140, but costs increased, weights increased so can only be carried by HB or JHB.
added Bunker-buster type at tech 155, can only be carried by HB/JHB/JFB.
Fusion units moved to tech 200 range.

Sectors
plains produce oils.


PZ6 has a "Wheel of Misfortune" theme, so start continents are shaped like the wheel, which oddly also closely resembles the radiological warning sign.

Start continents have 45-, 12~, and 3^.  Countries start with 4 sancs, gold dust is only in the mountains.  Uniform resources on Start Continents.  Start Continent Industrial Sectors have 100 minerals, 40 oil, and 50 uranium.  Plains have 20 oil resources.  Elsewhere, resources are unknown.

The "report" command has been disabled, which means you will have no clue who is cranking or lagging in tech / edu / research / happiness.

Note the changes from the standard games:  Plague enabled, 40 ETU's per update, mils cost half as much as normal, fort firing ranges at 66.6%, no market or loans.  Start tech/edu/research/happy is 6.66/6.66/6.66/6.66.

There are expansion islands, that will have 'some' Terminator defenses.

The deity will NOT be playing.

Note: Planes and Units only build to 95% (at their first update of building).  That last 5% of extra calibration and paint touch-up requires an additional update in the factory to finalize.  Ships go to 100% on their first update of building, it is deemed too annoying to wait for
95% then 100% ships.
Update Schedule is fixed at 10:30PM (EST/EDT):
  first 10 Updates @ daily
  next 10 Updates @ skip weds and saturday
  remaining Updates @ every other day
  plus breaks for easter, mothers day, memorial day.
