Temporary Blacksmith structures for prototyping and playtesting.

Lots of new techs. Healing techs. Vision for outpost. "Conscription" tech boosts batch training speed. Implemented Macedonian "Hellenistic Metropolis" special tech. Testing placing Champions in the barracks (unlocked with a tech). Try this out with the Macedonians. Reduced archer attack damage. Reduced cost of healer. Lots of other stuff. This was SVN commit r13400.
