For the devs with love

Hi,

First of all I wanted to say a big thank you for creating this game. My grand father was a maquisard so that game really resonnates with me. I've finished my first campaign and I started to play a second one, I haven't touch the special ops yet but I have a soft spot for the slow build up of the campaign. Overall it was a very pleasant experience with some missions being more challenging than others which is great for a tactical game. I have the feeling that I will keep on replaying it in the years to come.

Here a a few improvements I can suggest if the team is looking for feedback:

UX / UI / QoL:

1) The yellow spot notification of new equipement should only apply to gear of equal or higher level for this class unless it is already equiped by someone else. I have the feeling that it is applied more broadly and therefore not as useful.

2) Put an alert of the type "You have unspent skill points, do you want to continue?" when a mission is started but one of the team members still has skill points to spend.

Gameplay:

1) Maybe a controversial one but I feel like being able to use a task to change one of the member class would increase replayability. This suggestion comes from the fact on my first playthrough I chose some characters (which turned out was a pretty optimal choice of classes) but on my second one I chose different ones to spin things around a bit. As a result I am lacking a leader and potentially a medic to allow rotation. Being able to change class would give all characters a fair chance to be used. Probably for balance / logical reasons make it on the costly side like 3 days of training.

2) I feel like grenades are on the weak side in mid / late game. I haven't found lot of opportunities to purchase or loot new ones (I did drop a blue one originally) but even with that it often did little damage.

New game plus suggestions

I feel like it is a hard one to crack but I would suggest making it an "import" type of new game plus where you can tick 2 boxes, option 1 import gear from previous save and option 2 import character levels, option 2 would make the game more trivial but that could still be useful for players wanting to try harder difficulties.

Overall thanks a lot for all your work, I am having a great time playing it.
