Cut Content: Ammo

This mod adds 5 new ammo types to the game.

I do not necessarily know what exactly Firaxis intended to do with these 5 ammo types, so I am more or less recycling unused art assets to create new and unique ammo types.

All ammo is acquired via the experimental ammo project.

The balance can be tweaked from XComCutContentAmmo.ini

Falcon Rounds: +1 Damage, +100 pts Dodge Penetration
Needle Rounds: +2 to +6 Damage Bonus vs Flanked Enemies. Damage bonus increases with weapon tier. Does NOT affect unflankable enemies such as MECs, Archons, Sectopods, etc.
Flechette Rounds: +1 to +5 Damage Bonus vs Organic Enemies. Damage bonus increases with weapon tier.
Stiletto Rounds: -1 to -3 Damage, 75% chance to stun. Damage Debuff increases with weapon tier.
Redscreen Rounds: +1 Damage, 50% chance to disable enemy weapon, forcing a reload.

Note that mag and plasma pistols are 1 tier lower than their primary counterparts.

Also note that I haven't verified whether the bullet animation effects left over by Firaxis are actually fully functional or not.
