Battlefield 2142 - The European Union

Adds the European Union from DICE's Battlefield 2142 into the game as a playable Civilization.

====!!!! IMPORTANT COMPATIBILITY NOTICE !!!!====
This mod requires the Brave New World expansion pack to work, and WILL NOT function properly without it. However, as with every other mod I have created, I have chosen not to modify the dependency setting to require Brave New World, so those that do not have it can use the mod as they please. However, the mod is almost guaranteed to be a horribly broken - but playable - mess without the second expansion pack, so if you do not have the Brave New World expansion pack, proceed into a game with this mod at your own risk.


====Description====
The European Union is a defense-oriented Civilization that receives unique units and unique bonuses geared towards defensive strategies and territorial protection as a whole, especially in the lategame. In addition to its armies receiving unique arctic warfare training that enhances Combat Strength in arctic terrain, all of its Units receive an additional +10% Combat Strength in defensive warfare, making them exceptional at holding the line and defending the borders of the European Union against hostile invaders. On top of that, their forces excel in arctic combat thanks to their bonuses in Snow and Tundra tiles, ensuring that they can crush enemy forces on any battlefield close to the north or south pole, and invade enemy territories in the arctic with unprecedented efficiency. These strengths coupled with their extremely strong lategame Units make the European Union a powerful military opponent and a difficult enemy to destroy - and if their Cities are founded upon arctic or tundra terrain, their already-formidable defensive capacity will become even stronger and overcoming their determined defenses will turn into a nigh-impossible task that not even the most foolish of leaders will dare to attempt.


====Unique Ability - Arctic Warfare====
The European Union's version of the Arctic Warfare promotion provides all its ground military Units with a 10% bonus to Defensive Strength, and provides all European Union forces with a +15% Combat Strength bonus in Snow tiles and a 10% bonus in Tundra tiles.

====Unique Unit 1 - L5 Riesig====
Their first unique unit is the L5 Riesig, a Giant Death Robot replacer that utilizes 140 points of Combat Strength to engage the enemies of the European Union with ruthless efficiency, ensuring that their territories and Cities are fiercely defended to the last round of ammunition. While it is ten points weaker than its vanilla counterpart, it makes up for this drawback in strength by being easier to mass produce - as it has a slightly lessened Production cost to build and requires two Aluminum resources rather than one Uranium. Because of this, the European Union can construct the battlewalker in larger numbers and at no cost to its Uranium stores, however they must ensure that they maintain the Aluminum resources necessary to support such mass production.

====Unique Unit 2 - A-3 Goliath====
Their second unique unit is the A-3 Goliath, a nigh-invincible lategame Unit with unmatched armor and durability that ensures it can withstand even the worst of enemy attacks and emerge victorious. It owes this power to its set of promotions and abilities, all of which enhance its armor and survivability in combat situations. It is equipped with the Armor Plating 1 promotion for free which provides it with a +25% increase to its Combat Strength when in defensive combat, and also receives the unique Regenerative Cells promotion, which allows it to repair itself on the battlefield, regardless of whether or not it performs an action. Coupled with its base Combat Strength value of 110, the A-3 Goliath is one of the most formidable armored Units in the world and can easily create a nigh-impenetrable defense of the European Union's borders or steadily advance alongside other forces in order to mount an unstoppable offensive that cannot be broken by enemy retaliation. Despite all its strengths however, its weakness lies in its Movement speed - receiving only two points of Movement that makes it somewhat vulnerable in mobile combat and can cause problems for the Goliath in keeping up with a fast-moving front line or speedier friendly forces. In addition, this power comes at the steep price of two Aluminum resources and a high Production cost, meaning that mass production of the unit will place a significant strain on the European Union's Aluminum stores, if they even have the resources to maintain such production.
