[unsupported] Realistic Siege - No more victory point ticket losses (4.0 Ready)

Have you ever been fighting an EPIC siege battle, fighting against OVERWHELMING ODDS but holding your ground in a great city chokepoint, only to have one or two AI units slip around, grab the two key capture points, and then suddenly force you to give up your position to try to rush and recapture the magical locations or lose?

If so, was it fun?

If you answered "NO" then this is your mod. Say goodbye to suddenly losing your siege due to victory point tickets.

This mod:
(1) REMOVES the victory tickets. If your enemy captures the two key buildings in your settlement, you'll lose the bonuses and suffer the morale hit, BUT you will no longer have a fast countdown until you lose the battle for no reason.
(2) KEEPS the need to hold at least ONE point in your city. It no longer has to be a key building, but you must hold at least a single supply point or lose - so you can't just run around outside the city and avoid a loss. I kept this because it represents a total takeover of your city, and it would make sense if you lose every point of impact in your city that you'd lose the city.

Please see pictures for a visual explanation.

The mod IS save game compatible. And it ONLY affects the victory tickets, so it is compatible with everything, including other siege mods. Just make sure this mod loads with higher priority to overwrite the other siege mod's possible use of ticket tables.

Like all GOW mods, this mod has been cleaned to minimize potential conflicts with other mods. This means my mod will not accidentally overwrite someone else's mod changes in an unrelated area. My mod will only conflict with mods that change the exact same things I do.
