Think about it.. an X-com PC might be a bit of fun, maybe a 1950's War of the
Worlds scenario? With the 1890's War of the Worlds coming out there would be a
lot more interest. Already I have read complaints that some people want the
50's scene more.  I'm supposed to be doing the hex and graphics part of a X-Com
user patch myself, but I got Apoc and a bunch of other cool stuff so I'm sort
of sidetracked.  I did'nt write in to support your project because it would be
best if I finished mine first.  Its so depressing  seeing an indy project die.
If you make an add-on/expansion/PC for UFO  you can make life a lot easier for
yourself and at the same time put your ideas into play.
