Version 1.0

First update of 2026, and hopefully not the last! I’ve decided to start using version numbers and I’ll start here at 1.0, even though true 1.0 was probably quite a while ago. Hopefully, this will make it a little easier for people to update their killbots using the changelog, especially if they missed more than one update. 

Otherwise, mainly some minor rules clarifications, as well as making explicit some of the other ways you can play the game.
