[*]Added area transition between Industrial Zone and Freight Haven
[*]Added area transition between The Slabs and Freight Haven
[*]Added new faction: Free Slade Militia (Civilian Vigilante Militia who oppose the violent gangs, ruthless outlaws, corporate/government corruption - these are meant to be "good guys")
[*]Added Armican HP44 Goliath pistol (44 Magnum Auto pistol - this thing is extremely powerful and can be side-fired but it's not as accurate as the Sobek revolver)
[*]Added Armican HP44 Goliath pistol attack skills and animations
[*]Enemies now have slight variation to their max health and mettle (+/- 10% --- This means that enemies of the same exact type can have up to a 10% boost or reduction to their health and mettle each time they are faced --- Example: Thug Hoodlum 1 may have 19 hp and Thug Hoodlum 2 may have only 16 --- These numbers are then slightly randomized again by a % based on the enemy's skill level)
[*]Reduced interior fog by 10%
[*]Increased raindrop sprite amount by 10%
