Minor wording changes and typo slaying.

Trope and Perk changes

Added the "Gumshoe" trope.
The trope "The Brave One" now gives a blooper die on rolls while confronted with your fear (instead of reducing AP to 3 per turn). It also gained a Cinematic Action and an Epic.
The "Bumbling Sidekick" trope got a partial revamp.
The "Batteries Included" trope's first cinematic action now gives you the option of getting epic dice tokens instead of healing.
The "Man/Woman of the Cloth" trope's cinematic action now grants 2 AP instead of 1.
The "Net Hacker" trope's cinematic action no longer stipulates an amount of spent AP.
The "Psychic Mindfreaker" trope gained the Persuasion epic.
The 5 AP attack granted by the "Sniper" trope now gives an epic die to the attack rather than a +2 bonus.
The "Though Art From The Future/Past" tropes both gained a new Cinematic Action that allows them to pick up some Epic Dice Tokens. They lost their armor in exchange. These tropes now also give a choice as to which stat takes a penalty.
The "What a Scoop!" trope gained the Research epic and a new Cinematic Action for earning Epic Dice Tokens. In exchange, it now penalizes either ACC or STR.
Removed a note on the "Wildcard" perk relating to a previously removed aspect of the "Stoner" trope. Whoops!
The "You Thought I was Down" perk, got the bonus to rolls increased from +1 to +2.
