- Updated "IsAI" monitor with a termination that won't end after the first faction is checked
- Tweaks to many Greek traits and ancillaries to reduce frequency or limit access

- Double-appearance of Celtic Clients fixed
- Fixes mistake in Roman recruitment
- Alters poorly tiered agent training triggers & reduces success chances
- Fixes Roman temple in Iltirta bug
