----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Features:

Re-worked Research Tech Tree:  Tech Tree that has definable paths that require choices, choosing specific techs will lock off access to others:

• Beam, Pulse, and EMP are their own path
• Advanced Ballistics, Gauss, and Fusion are their own path
• Choosing Beam locks you off from Advanced Ballistics and subsequent research
• Choosing Advanced Ballistics locks you off from Beam and subsequent research
• Choosing Gene Mod Recovery locks you off from Mobile Combat 
• Exoskeletons and Heavy Combat Exoskeletons
• Choosing Mobile Combat Exoskeletons or Heavy Combat Exoskeletons locks you off from Gene Mod Recovery
  

Re-defined Techs:  Certain techs have been modified in order to balance the different 
  definable paths that only allow one direction choice

• Gene Mod Recovery(removes Improved Combat Exoskeletons): reduces fatigue penalty for Gene Mods
• Advanced Fusion Weaponry(removes Vehicular Plasma Weapons): increases the effectiveness of Fusion weapons
• Advanced Ballistic Weaponry(removes Precision Plasma Weapons): increases the effectiveness of Ballistic weapons
• Advanced Cooling Technology(removes Heavy Plasma Weapons): used to restructure unlocking of weapons and armor
• Micro Techologies(removes Compact Plasma Weapons): used to restructure unlocking of weapons and armor
• Alien Cybernetics(removes Experimental Warfare): used to restructure unlocking of weapons and armor
  

Additional Foundry Projects:  In order to restructure the gameplay in a unique way I have created additional foundry projects which is what will be used to unlock different tiers of weapons

• MEC Exoskeleton Advancements
• Improved MEC Defense Systems
• Improved MEC Power Systems
• Beam Cooling Systems
• Beam Alloy Chasis
• Advanced Beam Discharge
• Improved Gauss Ammo Casing
• Fused Gauss Chamber
• Gauss Interchangable Core
• Pulse Discharge Adaptation
• Enhanced Pulse Charge
• Enhanced Fusion Concepts
• Plasma Modifications
• Security Training: Base Defense
• Plasma Miniturization
  

Modified Foundry Projects:  I found some things I wanted to expand upon, I added to the following foundry projects

• Security Training: Weapons
• Security Training: Armor
  

Item Restructure:  Many of the item requirements have been changed to mix up the gameplay for those already familiar with how Long War works

This mod started as just a simple Tech/Project rework to require foundry projects in order to unlock weapon types, it has since taken on a life of it's own and I have enjoyed adding more and more features.  I am open to suggestions and feedback for any that choose to try my mod.
