			Equipment:

			- Disruptor shields are now extremely vulnerable to entropy enzyme attacks, and they are somewhat vulnerable to plasma attacks and explosions.
			They are also slightly heavier, so that it is less attractive to carry two of them. Watch out for aliens with entropy launchers! Hyperworms now do entropy damage to take advantage of the weakness in the disruptor shields, and spitters are also particularly more dangerous.
			- Laser rifles are more accurate
			- Valkyrie Interceptors are a bit stronger
			- Entropy launches and dimension missile launches fire more rapidly
			- Disruptor armour is a bit less powerful
			- High explosives are lighter, so that they might actually be useful.

			All of my playtesting was done on superhuman difficulty, and for full effect I recommend excising your willpower by not save-scumming (ie. reloading your save game when something bad happens to you) and also not stunraiding.

Since I haven't done much testing in real-time mode I don't know if it is still winnable like that or not. I just prefer turn-based strategy.

			Here's a summery of what has been changed.

			- The bio tech tree has been changed
			- autotopsies are required before live alien research (except in special cases)
			- The requirements for "The Alien Genetic Structure" are Anthropod, Spitter, and Brainsucker.
			- The requirements for "Biological Warfare" are The Alien Genetic Structure and Multiworm Egg.
			- (Other bio requirements have not been changed as far as I remember)
			- The Retaliator research now requires UFO type 7 (bomber) instead of type 6 (assult ship)
