You can simply direct the loader by typing this at the command prompt:
ldr_xcom2.exe terror.exe (or whatever the executable happens to be for tftd)

or in a shortcut to the loader, put something like this in the target:
"C:\xcom2\ldr_XCOM2.exe" C:\xcom2\Terror~1.exe

or rename the tftd executable to "Terror From the Deep.exe"
