Allow Negative Custom Unit Stats

I used this as an example in another thread, but in EC's Ancient World, there is a unit called Wall that is immobile. However, with Blitzkrieg, you're able to move it around a sizable distance. I think we should be able to add negative stats for range at least, so we can create units like Coastal Battery (-4 range, high def against ships) that are still immobile with Blitzkrieg.

Or, of course, you could modify Blitzkrieg so it doesn't improve range if range=0.

Or you could simply set the role to something like Ground: Other, then it won't be affected by the different strategies.

are other units not effected by ANY strategies? I thought they were only exempt from specific strategies (GC, SM, GW, etc.) but were still effected by broader strategies (Imp, blitz, IF, etc.)

All units are affected by Blitz, IF, and Imp, as they should be. As the original post said, Wall is an Other unit that is now mobile with Blitz.

I think the wall in EC's Ancient World is categorized as Ground: Other.
