Area-Melee

Description
Area-Melee is an attack-type that allows the user to attack multiple opponents in one turn with Strength as the damage stat.

If the attack is energon based, the cost of the attack is: total cost = (default energon) +(targets - 1)*(default energon)/2 where (default energon) is what the attack would cost for one target.

If an attack is ammo-based, the cost of the attack is: total targets = 3 + (ammo - 1)*2

So, for 1 ammo, you get 3+(1-1)*2= 3 targets. For 2 ammo, you get 3+(2-1)*2=5 targets. The most 'efficient' use of ammo is 1 ammo for 3 targets.

Ammo-based Area-melee attacks would probably need a good explanation.

Every character has access, via !globals, to a cruddy Area-Melee attack. Some characters have better Area-Melee attacks by default, and you can always upgrade into a better Area-Melee attack if it is appropriate for your character.
