Machinas Reimagined

[VCR_CAT]

I was bored, and decided to do this up. The Machina archetype is bad, yet has arguably the best maindeck Machine-Type monster in the whole game. I haven't touched the whole archetype, so for the cards that were left unchanged you can check them out here:

Bumperooni with some updates:

- Sniper's effect activates whether the other machine you control attacks or is attacked

- Soldier is now a Union to better support non-Xyz plays

- Cannon's stat-boost mechanic has been changed to better promote actually summoning it

- Slight grammar fix on Megaform
