1.0.2 - Content update II - Seemingly single target weapons

This content update adds three new weapons, balances many existing weapons, and adds several playability tweaks.

Weapons!

There are now 31 weapons (and 124 different attacks) in DBB! Introducing the newest additions:

Rapier

Rapier is a high-damage melee weapon and similar to the spear, but has much less area-of-hit and can't be used in the air. It is highly effective against single even-level targets, less so against a group of enemies.

Sniper Rifle

Sniper Rifle is similar to its little brother Repeater, but has much higher damage per round and doesn't apply self-knockback to its user. Its biggest disadvantage is its lack of target penetration - making its bullet stop when reaching the first target - and slower rate of fire. It's the perfect firearm for hunting single remote targets.

Teleglove

Ranged Dorf Punch. Nuff said. With three-level wave of pure REKT as a special attack

All of these three weapons have single-target oriented normal attacks, but when it's time for a special, fratricide becomes an option.

Let me know how you like these! Cheers! :identitycrisis:
