Patch 17+ Data Typos

Remaining changes still made by installing this patch:
D2. Principle: Weights on unit cards should reflect the actual unit mass. Change: Units with different card weights than what the speed/mass of that unit actually is have been adjusted. Note: no actual change to performance involved, just correcting typos on the unit card/description. 6 lines changed. From BruceR, L. Romanista (5 WoS and Thracian Cav not changed in Empire Divided)

E7. Principle: Elite versions of units shouldn't have as good or better stats as the original unit without reason. Change: Roman First and Eagle Cohorts mass and charge increased to legionary values. Bonus HP reduced by 5 to offset the mass-based HP gain. 2 lines changed, +4 lines in main units to update unit card weights. From BruceR

G2. Principle: Garrisons should not be a different # of units other similar factions have for the same building, without good reason. Change: Replacing Spear Brothers with Bloodsworn (Suebi) in Artisan building line garrisons prevents double-sized garrisons for Nervii. 1 line changed. From BruceR
G4. Principle: Garrisons should not be a different # of units other similar factions have for the same building, without good reason. Change: Extra heavy infantry (Sword Follower unit) removed from Boii city/town garrisons. Elite Persian Foot Archers removed from Parthian city/town garrisons. 2 lines removed. From BruceR
G5. Principle: Buildings should not get less effective as you increase their level. Change: Roman Naval Port (Emperor campaign) level 4 Bireme garrison ships changed to Quadremes. 1 line changed. From L. Romanista
G6. Principle: Buildings should not get less effective when you increase their level. Change: Armenian Heavy Horse Studs (L2 stable) typo removing 2x Persian Cavalry garrison corrected. 1 line changed. From Areus
(May be fixed, maybe not... appears to have added new garrrison units without removing older ones)

H1. Principle: Units should be able to play their campaign units in custom battles. Change: Added--Colchis Assault Tetreres, Ardiaei Assault Dieres, Arevaci Assault Raider, Lusitani Assault Raider, Cimmerian Penteres with variants. Changed--2 Parthian missile vessels, assault hexeres changed to campaign game vessels. 8 lines added, 3 lines changed. From BruceR

Note: I want to say once again that I'm very happy that CA found so many of the same things that the crowdsourced mods have found, and I don't want anything associated with this mod to be seen in any other way, other than to continue to improve this game for everyone in as objective a manner as possible.
