1. How can I increase squad size and what's the maximum squad size? 2. How can I train a solider? 3. What triggers a reaction shot?

Something in-between X-Com Apocalypse and X-Com: Enemy Unknown (2012). In Apocalypse you could have (I think), 6 squads of 6, I personally think 36 is too many and won't go with the current maps. In Enemy Unknown, you get a maximum of 1 squad per encounter with 6 soldiers. This works well in the game and makes you care about each unit. In Xenonauts, I'd like to see 6-12 as I don't think we need another meat grinder-y platoon game where each solider is just a number. I'd like to be able to take more squads into battle, maybe two. This would mean you could have separate squads with different purposes without trying to have 1 mixed squad and it would be in-keeping with X-Com tradition of multiple squads. Too many soldiers would have players abandoning strategy and just wasting units until the enemy is defeated.
