Difficulty Level Changes

Description

(Quick note: Use the AddMod Tool that's HERE to easily add or
remove mods from your save games.)


This is a great mod for those who've played through the game once
or twice and are looking for a little more challenge, or for anyone
playing on the Normal or Hard settings that wants smarter AI. It ups
the level of all the enemies on Hard and Impossible, too... : )

A few small tweaks are also added, like the ability to save the game
anywhere, and the way soldiers are bandaged after missions.

Overall, I think this mod is a great balancing tool, making all the
enemies as smart as they can get, raising their level a bit, and letting
you save anywhere (so going to work or class isn't such a pain in the
butt).

Here is the text from the readme included with the mod:
