Batch 1: Wiesel, Jaguar, Tiger, Fox

VisualsUnits

Four Resistance tanks with real running gear (road wheels, sprockets, one continuous track) inside the original silhouettes, and the weapon each one fires now visibly mounted. The blind reviews split, so I lined up v4, v5 and v6 and picked v6. 17 test games in real levels: no crashes, frame time unchanged.
