Change Details

This patch tweaks the attacks of macemen: * The champion's reload time is raised to 1 s and the damage is adjusted accordingly; effectively the damage per second stays the same, but the slower attack looks better. * The citizen's attack is changed to be exactly the same as the champion's, but with half the damage. The 1:2 damage ratio is already the case for swordsmen, spearmen, etc. Moreover, the old attack (a combination of hack and crush) made it quite ineffective; if a player wants a soldier with hack attack, just train swordsmen. * Macemen no longer benefit from the `attack_steel_working.json` technology; axemen, pikemen, and spearmen don't benefit from this either, and the description makes it clear it's about swords. * While at it, properly formatted the technology file and included it in the relevant {civ}.json files.

Mauryas have a champion maceman, but only Romans can form this formation. Moreover, axemen don't have it either.
