New items/weapons

[Teo_live]

Well I have been working on a list of new items that may help make battletanks abit more diverse and interesting. I tried to keep them as balanced as possible as well as compliment few builds. In particular battletanks is lacking late/superlate weapons. I had some really cool animations of them, unfortunately I cant find them so I have to just paste a fricken photo of a warcraft sprite using them. Well they are open for debate and/or modification so I hope some ideas get passed through. The maths is slightly crude in the rounding off department, more to add visual effect then anything else (eg 23333 looks better than 23335).
