Need to develop a way to introduce many different ant species that the player can choose from #132

For now, the game will load the player into a generic ant class with no real specifics besides a total population

Selecting ant classes will be a huge strategy of the game. Some ant classes are stronger or weaker against other ant classes. Some ant classes do not have static nests; they are constantly on the move. Some colonies are very small (200-300), some are very large (8,000,000). Some can only be defeated by one specific class, and the player should only play this class (Leafcutter) as a defense-type class, thus changing the entire point of of the game (eliminating other colonies).

As you can see, adding all of these new elements will require a considerable, or complete restructure of the current games design.

For now, utilize what is written in the Species Wiki, we can work out other specifics as we go. Let me know if you need more info.
