Battle

Fixed an issue where the FRIENDLY FIRE countermeasure didn't trigger when the HQ took 0 damage.
Fixed broken interaction between 1st GRENADIER REGIMENT, KV-1 1941, and 738. JÄGER REGIMENT, which caused card draw to completely deplete a player’s deck.
Fixed errors affecting gold cards/gold HQs in battle.
Fixed a bug causing the "Destruction" ability to trigger twice after using CODE OF BUSHIDO if B5N KATE was on the battlefield and P1Y GINGA was discarded.
Fixed issue where SPITFIRE Mk II didn't gain +2 attack after 456th RIFLE REGIMENT gained Guard when the enemy HQ was attacked.
Fixed an issue where covert units failed to trigger ENEMY SPOTTED.
Fixed an issue preventing excess damage ability from triggering if a T-34 was deployed or added after using TURNING POINT.
Fixed a bug where deploying PANZER III-F triggered an opponent’s GREIF unit ability if GREIF was present on both battlefields.
Fixed an issue with the OVERWHELMING FORCE tooltip.
Fixed a bug where YAMAGATA REGIMENT's ability wasn't removed after a friendly unit was returned to hand by THE MERCHANT NAVY.
