Rebalanced Artillery type weapons to be significantly more expensive

Fixed units occasionally moving too much to the left or right when their path has a curve, often causing its individual units to move over mountain and sea tiles
Fixed "Populated" showing 2 $CITIZENS# instead of the Citizens icon
Fixed Ultra Capitalism leadership style not being displayed correctly and causing multiple other related issues
Fixed strategic resources tooltips in the top menu not showing tooltip if there's more than 6 resources

Fixed misc typos

June 17th minor update (1.0.11)

Updated Anti Armor weapon type to reflect it causes 35% more damage against Armor (Previous balance change was properly implemented and respective line in combat preview screen was in, but tooltip wasn't updated)
Changed Tank Driver Seminaries technology name changes to Tank Driver Academies (Name of the respective improvement was properly changed in previous build but the technology that unlocks it with a similar name wasn't)
Fixed 7th strategic resource tooltip in main UI not working

Give it a whirl, let us know what you think, and we'll be back with more!
