I still don't like overwriting every definition - I very strongly support Pixelfck's proposal to improve the situation overall - but I'm fine with maintaining the mod now that I've written a Java program to generate the mod's XML from the TranscendenceSource XML.
Anyway, enough words
Every armor has new pixels!

Weapon graphics I rendered eons ago

I'm not saying it's aliens, but it's aliens (also, dammit. of COURSE I get an undamaged fracture cannon on my first sentinel kill while I'm testing a mod)

Also: armors.jpg, guns.jpg, and iocrymguns.jpg. Try to see if you can guess which armor images go with which armors! I tried to have a few visual cues for most of the armors, based on its properties or the aesthetics of the faction that uses it.
