Update 6 patch notes

Bugfix:
* Volkssturm typo
* Motoschutzen '42 NCO
* Fixed late panzer crew headwear



Update to Skirmish mode with new units. Doctrines have been revamped and new units have been added, and some units have been moved around.
Will this be balanced? Most likely no.
Only the German Late-War side has been modified for now. Russian Late-War will be next.
The units are of course subject to change and suggestions are welcome.


The new doctrines are as follows:

All-Round Doctrine: 78th Sturm Division. Features infantry from the 78th Sturm Division, including the Begleit company of the 189.Sturmgeshutzabteilung. This division can rely on integrated support from the 519. Schwere Panzerjager Abt as well as nearby Tiger companies attached to the 5th Panzer Division. Unfortunately the game does not have the Hornisse model, so the Jagdpanther is present instead. The 519 was eventually re-equipped with Jagdpanthers in July 1944.

T1: 78th Sturm. Grenadiers // Sperrverband Pioneers // Veteran 8cm Mortar
T2: StuG III G (Late) + Begleit Tank Riders // 78th Sturm. Pioneers // Dismounted Begleit Grenadiers
T3: 15cm sFh18 // Ace Tiger I E // Jagdpanther


Defensive Doctrine: Kampfgruppe Berlin. Featuring hastily recruited infantry for the last-ditch effort to defend the German capital. Newly raised Volksgrenadier lavishly equipped with automatic weapons supplemented by the Hitlerjugend are present, with a Tiger II company providing heavy armor.

T1: Volksgrenadiere // Hitlerjugend // 7.5cm IG18
T2: 3.7cm FlaK // 12cm Mortar // 8.8cm FlaK36
T3: Nebelwerfer 41 // sFh18 // Tiger II H

Irregular Doctrine: 1. Skijager Division. A recently formed division regrouping a panzergrenadier division with remnant mountaineer units, making for a unique and colorful unit. Captured T-34s are numerous, including perhaps the sole remaining KV-2 on the Eastern Front.

T1: Jager // 12cm Mortar // Flammpanzer III
T2: Gebirgsjager // Fallschirmjager // T-34-85
T3: BF110 // KV-2 // Nebelwerfer 43

Offensive Doctrine: IV. SS-Panzer Corps. Featuring the 5.SS Panzer Division Wiking following the Warsaw Uprising and ensuing battles along the Vistula. Forming the tip of the armored spear its mobile reconnaissance opens the way for the inevitable armored attack. Includes support from the few Sturmtigers first used in Warsaw for devastating destruction. Technically the 5.SS were never equipped with the Sdkfz 234, but it has been added to also represent the II.SS Panzer Corps (specifically the LSSAH) during the Spring Awakening offensive around Lake Balaton, Hungary, February-March 1945. The choice was whether to go full 1945 with Tiger II, or a Poland 1944 – so I went for a compromise.

T1: Sdkfz 234/2 5cm Puma // SS-Panzeraufklarungs // SS-Aufklarungs Panzerjager
T2: SS-Panzerpioneer // Gep. SS-Panzergrenadier // SS-Panzergrenadier (Mot) Platoon
T3: Panzer IV J Platoon // Panzer V Panther Ausf G // Sturmtiger
