Change: Replace 40% of Rangers with Missile Defenders in USA Paradrops

• Relates to USA Paradrop Generals Power is very rarely used #705

This change replaces 40% of Rangers with Missile Defenders in USA Paradrops.

The latin localization has been updated accordingly.

Original

Paradrop Level 1: 5 Ranger
Paradrop Level 2: 10 Ranger
Paradrop Level 3: 20 Ranger

Patched

Paradrop Level 1: 3 Rangers + 2 Missile Defenders
Paradrop Level 2: 6 Rangers + 4 Missile Defenders
Paradrop Level 3: 12 Rangers + 8 Missile Defenders

Rationale

The original USA Paradrop is seldom used, because the Spectre Gunship and A10 powers are typically better value than a group of Rangers. The newly added Missile Defenders increase the usefulness of the Paradrop, because it can now also engage vehicles, helicopters and planes in both offense and defense.

The maximum monetary value of the spawned infantry increases by 600, from 4500 to 5100.

Like it but not sure. 2 MDs for first drop seems fine but the 8 seem like quite a lot.

Exile

I feel the opposite way, 2 MD's with level 1 feels like a bigger buff than 8 with level 3 to me, because it's a huge sacrifice to spent so many points on paradrop and not on meta powers. Spending only 1 point is easier to consider. Overall I think the changes are fine, because something is needed to make it an attractive alternative to meta powers.

Documentation added. Looks good.

Zarz:

Very strong upgrade. I do not think it is a good idea. Because in late game, if you will drop these guys, then almost no chance to kill them if opponent has low money and some units. 8 Missile Defenders on Level 3 looks too hard.
