About the pull request
Splits spec ammo and utility into two different point categories. Specs get 45 regular points for utility, and 120 snowflake points for specialist ammunition. Each piece of ammo costs 40 snowflake points (except the 40mm smokes, which cost 20).
Only balance difference point-wise is the smokes are 20 points instead of the mathematically correct amount (26.66) so as to not leave any unusable points in the vendor (also smokes are pretty weak so I don't think it's an issue)
Explain why it's good for the game
My reasoning for this is that the spec’s utility purchases feel like noob traps or just plain bad decisions, considering req has most of the utility items for free versus the very-expensive spec ammo.
