Made a few updates...

NEW :

- Created "Proving Grounds" games. They are ongoing, join-any-time, non-ranked Campaigns. You can find them under the Training games page.
- Added 3 new Experience techs which each give +5% exp in combat.
- Added a new Poll. Check under Community - Polls

CHANGES :

- Techs now accumulate. You start each game with +4 and gain +1 each turn. Once you buy a tech it drops by -1. Once you have used up all your techs, you have to wait until the next turn.
- Players now start with more Gold/Resources. I also gave the extra gold/resources to all current games.
- Balista, Catapults & Battering Rams are now slower with a move of 5.
- Balista now has lower health (from 30 to 28). Rams have lower health (from 60 to 45). Catapults have higher health (from 60 to 66).
- General News page now shows current turn news of a random game each refresh. Only games with news are chosen.
- Lowered cost of Advanced, Expert & Master Melee/Ranged techs so you can get the higher level units faster.
- Updated Outposts to 18-tiles viewing range from 16.
- Outpost techs give +3 viewing range per tech instead of just 2.
- Taxes, Tax-Reform, Government & Empire techs are now cheaper, live under the Castle (not marketplace) and give +500, +600, +700 & +800 Gold respectively.
- Players start with +1000 Gold base income and +1000 Gold per castle.
- Drawbridges are now accessible by getting Castle Defense, same as Towers.
- Palisades, Walls, Drawbridges and Towers Techs are now a little bit cheaper.
- Seige and Expert Seige techs are now cheaper.
- Battering Rams now have a move of 6, up from 5.
- Basic troops gain +1 movement, Expert/Master troops lose -1 movement.

Crazy, man! Crazy! Faster starts might help keep newbies around...

but crazy!

Bravo, Reqqy poo. It'll take me a few games to see how I like the extra resources at start (if it makes piles less important, this will actually slow DOWN starts as people don't need to expand early), but I'm hopeful.

I'm LOVING the new tech system...

I hated skipping techs because it felt like wasting opportunity... now I can turn up Expert Weapons in the blink of an eye and crush an enemy >D
