This will be more in line with what the actual gameplay is. The base as a whole has all those facilities in it. Research is a concept encompassing both Science Labs and Laboratories.  Manufacturing encompasses Engineering, Workshops, and Foundries. Gray Market will be important as people will want to go somewhere for quick price comparisons.

At one point in the game you need to capture one Outsider.

I have been trying to contribute to the XCOM: Enemy Unknown (2012) pages. Particulary, [http://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=EU_(2012) this main page].  The User Hobbes [http://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=EU2012_Table&diff=37494&oldid=37487 reverted] my edits on 1Oct 23:43 with no attempt to discuss.  I put the top-most info in the talk on 1Oct 22:57, before his revert, to try to explain why I thought the edits would be more consistent with the new game format.  For awhile I was confused because the history didn't seem to show the edits; I eventually realized the history of that main page is different than the history of the [http://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=EU2012_Table&action=history EU 2012 Table] in it.  On 2Oct 3:04 I [http://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=EU2012_Table&diff=37505&oldid=37503 undid] his revert.  On 2Oct 10:53 Hobbes [http://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=EU2012_Table&diff=37512&oldid=37506 reverted again] without discussion and somehow [http://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=EU2012_Table&diff=37513&oldid=37512 protected] the Table such that it can no longer be edited.  Hobbes' profile says User, so I don't know how that was done other than a request.  But, I don't see anything mentioning our situation in the Admin noticeboard or Edit Warring noticeboard.  Now I'm finally getting some [http://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=User_talk:Hobbes&action=edit&section=6 discussion] but Hobbes' replies seem to not address the actual concern.

:I don't want to abuse my position as an administrator but: a) You changed the table from the format followed for all XCOM game tables on this wiki. b) I reverted and placed a notice on the page's Talk page. c) You reverted and didn't check the talk page. Since I don't want to get into a war of edits I protected the table. The other administrators can and should intervene if it's necessary but what I did was to keep wiki consistency and prevent the main table from being constantly edited.
