Round 8 Changes

[Taylor]

Round 8 has begun.
Changes this round:
- The stat system has been completely overhauled and simplified.
- Instead of experience points being automatically added to your stats after battle, you just get generic XP which you can add to whatever stats you want. Completing missions also gives XP.
- Many new Thaumophage items. They, and the thaumophages themselves, are now sold at the Littlest Pet Shop of Horrors, rather than your society store (after you learn Infusion, of course).
- This is not a new change, but putting it here as a reminder: You can put thaumophages on enemy squares, too.

Some useful things you might want to know about the skill changes:
- The way that accuracy and dodge works has changed. The accuracy stats (unarmed, melee, ranged, and magic) are now much more effective than they used to be if your rank in the stat is higher than your target's dodge stat.
- Your magic stat also increases your resistance to magic. This means that non-magical creatures are now much more susceptible to most spells.

I am not sure that I am a fan of thamophages making runes in enemy territory. At the least the eggs need to be more expensive to make it an actual negative, since the money for an egg is pretty easy to come by atm

actually, now that I have got through the missions and I see the other items, those seem like cool content vectors. We'll see where this goes
