It shouldn't be too hard to add some kind of test harness, but since I
don't have a lot of time to spend on the project at the moment, I won't
be a big help there.

In the past, we've toyed with the idea of making the AI pluggable, at
least for testing purposes, and having several AIs face off against each
other to see which fared better. I think we did have a working prototype
at one point, but I no longer remember the details (damn, getting old I
am).

I'll try to give your changes a spin soon (I'm curious to see what
happens when the unit in the centre is artillery instead of a tank...)
but once again, no promises...

And a tangential note: please generate patches in unified format.
They're much easier to read at a glance (to me anyway).

Cheers,
Jens
