New Midway map for Battlegroup 1942

Thanks once again to DarkRyda, we have a new version of the Midway map for BG42. Read more for the details.

Adjusted the ticket count and countdown rate. The map will start with more tickets and will count down slower. Adjusted the flags: at the beginning of the map, both flags are now gray.

All planes and tanks on the island have been replaced with better units as they were pretty weak.

Ships for both sides have been rearranged into the four corners of the map. The Allies have the top corners and Axis has the bottom corners.

Allied fleet:
Two carriers: USS Enterprise and USS Hornet
Three battleships: USS Salt Lake City, USS Washington, King George V
Four destroyers: two Fletcher class and two Tribal class
Two submarines
Two Landing Craft, both LCT Mk.V (each carries a Sherman tank and an APC)
Two PT boats
