Atomic Fist update

The first live nuclear attack of the Atomic Fist deployment has been made when C103 South America destroyed a target on the planetoid being used for the exercises. Exercises AF2 and AF3 both went well though in AF3 one of the Pulsars suffered a failure in it's SAS (attack system) and had to pull out of an attack. This has now been repaired.

K107 Pliny was repaired by a DDS Engineering team and took part in AF3 which involved all 3 Romes using their attack modules using target data from a Pulsar.

R101 Missileer has joined the deployment and it's Ferret-E UCVs will play the part of "the enemy" in exercises AF4 and AF5 which will be against heavily defended opposition.
