Three units, Bolas, Puppy and Scallop, were a bit overtuned and so they are the focus of this patch. As a new unit, it is better for Bolas to be a bit on the side of OP, Puppy will be revisited later, and Scallop was too good against units intended to force it to the surface. Big seismic effects now ignore structures and there are some small raider tweaks.
