Sniper towers 1 hit KO foot troops

[Boom]

Idea would be that sniper towers should do away with DPS and instead use a timer between shots. Each shot should be a 1 hit kill to foot soldiers (mortar troops, soldiers, riflemen, combat engineer, machine gunner, and RPG come to mind).

This would make an otherwise worthless tower into a strategic defense item, and would help defenders against attackers that spam mortar troops/zooks.

Keep the timer long between shots, maybe 25 seconds with -1 second per age upgrade with bonus opportunities through other mechanisms. Just age promotions alone would get that to 10 second shots if fully upgraded.

sniper towers are already powerful with the proper committee bonuses
