Bronzeman Mode

NOTE: For War of the Chosen compatibility, use this version instead: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1125184617

Adds "Bronzeman" mode, sort of like Ironman lite. No saves during a mission, but you can save all you want back on the Avenger. This means you can't repeat a turn, but you can restart the whole mission. Gives you that Ironman feel with 100% less campaign-ending squad wipes.

To start a Bronzeman run, create a new game with the "Bronzeman Mode" checkbox checked.

You can also convert an existing non-Ironman campaign into Bronzeman Mode, and you can turn it off for any existing Bronzeman Mode campaign. To do this, you need to install MCM and open the mod options menu from the Avenger screen. For obvious reasons, you aren't allowed to disable Bronzeman mode during a mission. ;)

The rollback feature is now official, but requires autosaves enabled to work. The rollback feature will try to find the last Geoscape autosave from the same campaign. Just be careful: if you've played around with autosave settings recently, your last Geoscape autosave might not be when you think it is. If you'd rather not see the rollback option, you can opt to remove it from the mod options menu (requires MCM) or directly from XComBronzeManMode.ini.
