Excellent, the very first universal opinion. Everything is going according to plan... :)

I'm glad that you're playing that game, Derpestein. You won't regret it, unless you lost your job because of it.

Anyway, another concern I have is how combat will work. It's not as straightforward as it seems, because I'm sure you guys know that combat with aliens can be extremely... Invasive :D Here's a few ideas, but it would be great if I could get some from you guys too:
- Player gets to act, but cannot decide the results. Aliens will act, and players cannot decide the results. (This is to follow in the spirit of Xcom, in which players must take what they are given, and suffer the pain of anxiety as they wait for aliens to appear in the horizon and fire a barrage of plasma at them. Especially in Iron-man mode)
- Players get to act and decide the results, while the aliens get the same privilege. (Not recommended, as this is not chess. I fear that it might just become a series of escalating ego contest)
- Players get to decide everything. (No, just no. There's no thrill in knowing everything :D)

What do you guys think?
