	~~Crash Bug:~~
	TFTD latest version (with the 7.2 patch) crashed in Geoscape on the 1st Intercept (subs vs Alien craft). I had already had a tactical combat against a landed craft, but this did not involve an interception. I did notice that the Geoscape Graphs looked strange (faulty) prior to the interception and crash.
	~~Running windowed mode with most things switched on apart from the [ make defense missions harder ] mods. Geoscape and battlefield shortcuts switched [off].~~

			== Not fully exploiting alien Alloys ==

			I like the fact that more is being made of Alien Alloys, but I have another idea - better bullets for the sniper rifle.

			Now the original Terrestial rifle that troops start with is actually quite good in terms of accuracy and flexibility, but is limited by terrestial bullets.

			Once the Alien Alloys are researched, it should be an easy thing to make Alien Alloy rounds, giving the olde sniper rifle a new lease of life - with higher damage rounds.

			New Ammo Tpye: Alien Alloy Rounds - increase rifle damage with Alien Alloys researched.
			Same should also apply to the heavy weapons that use AP ammo.
