- Added `playerGoesFirst` state to `CombatEngine` to alternate turn order each round.
- Updated `beginTurn` and `beginCommit` to handle AI deployment based on the current initiative (opponent deploys first if they have initiative, otherwise after the player).
- Modified `_buildPendingAttacks` to respect the alternating attack order.
- Added `animateHPLoss` to `CardObject.js` for a visual HP reduction animation similar to the Berserk gain effect.
- Enhanced `_animateAttack` in `BattleScene.js`:
- Integrated sprite animations for attacks (gun turret) and explosions using new spritesheets.
- Synchronized HP loss and Berserk gain animations with the attack sprite completion.
- Added an "Attacks First" indicator icon next to the commander of the side with initiative.
- Updated `BootScene.js` to load the new `attacksFirst` UI image and `attacks` spritesheet.
- Updated `cards.json` and `skills.json` to trigger Berserk on damage dealt (`on_attack`) instead of on kill, adjusting descriptions accordingly.
- Modified `CombatEngine.js` to emit a `berserk` event after successful attacks and removed the previous kill-based logic.
- Enhanced `SkillProcessor.js` to apply Berserk attack power gains only when damage is dealt during an attack.
- Added `animateBerserkGain` in `CardObject.js` to visually display the ATK increase with scaling, a "+N" label, and smooth transitions.
- Overhauled `_animateAttack` in `BattleScene.js`:
- Cards now slide to the center and scale up during attacks, then return to their original positions.
- Added a "VS" image that appears between cards during the clash.
- Synchronized particle bursts, shakes, and damage numbers with the new centered animation timing.
- Integrated Berserk gain animation into the attack flow, rewinding ATK text before animating the increase.
- Added `vs.png` asset loading in `BootScene.js`.
- Add PNG artwork assets for Imperial and Raider faction cards (commanders and units).
- Update `BootScene` to dynamically load card images based on `artKey` entries in `cards.json`.
- Refactor `CardObject` to render the loaded image over a faction-colored backing, falling back gracefully if the texture is missing.
- Replace the previous solid background rectangle with a transparent red overlay (`.bg`) for the attack flash animation, ensuring art remains visible during impacts.
