UPGRADE CLASSES

This version is a draft for the basic upgrade tech tree. It's purpose is to test the stability of the new feature and aims to enable more specific and refined changes with future updates. Its introduction will inevitably upset balancing between factions/countries but is a necessary first step towards a fully featured tech structure.
