Scipio aura radius

Summary

Scipio's tiny radius was mentioned in D541 but not addressed. Gaul's Vercingetorix has essentially the same effect (+20% attack for all soldiers and siege but +1 capture instead of +2) but with a 60m radius. This patch changes Scipio's aura radius to 30m, which is more reasonable.

(Now that we actually see the aura ranges in the game, I think 60m might be too large for many of them, but that can be discussed another time.)

Test Plan

Open the editor and place Scipio to see how tiny 10m is. Marcellus has 30m and 60m rings for comparison. Agree with the change.

I agree with the change. Indeed Vercingetorix and Fabius Maximus auras seem the biggest auras in next alpha.

Well, I didn't want commit such patches. (Else we can have tons of such patches).
But why not. (It's reasonnable according to the game I plaid)
In the future perhaps those things should be submit to the guy in charge of the balance or to the balance comitee or forum or whateva (Do those things still exist ?).
Ask @Itms

Edit: I personnaly think we could also wait for vision range nerf too, but well.

(me agrees too following lobby complaints that made me compare the aura range. See D395 for a comparison of range values.)
