[G&K] Volus Civilization

Adds the Vol Protectorate as a Civilization, led by Din Korlack.

Din Korlack is the Volus Ambassador, the galactic representation of the Volus. Annoyed that his people aren't being fully recognised for their incredible aid and work throughout history, he'll do anything he can to make sure his people are treated with the respect they deserve

Trait: (Unified Banking Act) Gold from all sources doubled. Land melee, archer, mounted and gun units receive a 50% combat penalty.

UU: Heavy-Bomber. Replaces Stealth Bomber. Massively more expensive. Moves 5 extra spaces, costs no Aluminum.

UB: Credit Bank. Replaces Bank. Provides a +33% gold boost in city. +4 Gold and +1 Happiness.

This is the third of our planned Mass Effect civs, the Volus. Din Korlack and the Volus were the first civ we made plans for and the one I was most looking forward to creating, and frankly their unique trait we created for them all those weeks ago made us realise how varied and unique we could make each of the races. Due to their massive wealth the Volus should be able to control vast diplomatic power, making it unwise to underestimate them. As every great leader knows, wars aren't just won on the battlefield, and hey, why fight when you can pay others to fight for you?

This is a dual project and we plan on creating and releasing all these civs (in no particular order) in the near future, and hopefully you'll enjoy them. :)
