NEW VERSION FJ counterattack on Castle Hill

I've made some adjustments that I hope will make the game more historical while also adjusting balance towards the British side slightly. Most can be seen below.


The reduced entry/exit areas make it more feasible for 1/4 ESSEX to exit before the FJ get in their way. In the victory conditions I have added that if => 20 US (about 60 men) of 1/4 ESSEX exit they have achieved a minor victory. If <= 10US (30 men) exit it's a minor German victory. The capture of the castle obviously is the deciding factor still - but I want to motivate the British to exit the map rather than stick around and fight. The local commander wanted to have these troops attack the flank of the FJ but was overruled and the 2 companies continued on to support 1/9th Gurkha Rifles on Hangman's Hill. About 40 of them made it and might well have been significant.
