	I'm a lurker here and would play X-Com internet play at the drop
of a hat as long as it had ties back to games 1 and 2.  I'm not a big fan
of Apoc or Interceptor, but rank UFO Defense and TFTD as two of my very
favourite games of all time.

	Is there a FAQ or compilation of suggestions for your the proposed
remake?  I have idead to contribute, but would like to not repeat ones I
merely agree with.  I'll at least mention my biggest wish for X-Com 1 and
2.

	Equiped troops before battle.  Trooper X has a 90 in throwing so he
gets all grenades.  Trooper Y has great firing accuracy so he gets skill
weapons.  Trooper Z can do three laps around the map with his movement
rate, he gets a tiny pistol and scouts.

	As you know, when equiping people before a mission starts,
you can't access stats to tell who to give what loadout.  Renaming your
troops in a descriptive manner is an option, but I like them to have
unique names like the game gives them.  Soldiers die too often in the
early game for you to remember in your head who has which strengths. 

	My 0.02.
