EU Main Table/Scratchpad

This is a rough scratchpad to begin creating new main section table for Enemy Unknown. Emphasis on Rough. At this stage it is just bullet-point section groupings.

Also, since it involves lightly touching most of the articles, some extra notes on how they might be better restructured.

If there have been any articles you think have been missing from the main tables that should be mentioned, please do not hesitate to recommend.

Note: This page and its talk page will be erased in due course.

some of the conceptual technical details seem to be common. concepts of Stun, Reaction Fire, Fatal Wounds, and Line of Sight for example are generally applicable across games, but the specific details of implementation may differ.
