Relate.

It doesn't exactly hurt that I've been playing XCOM lately, either. In terms of battle systems, the two are nearly identical, though with different focuses for your troops. Adapting the engine would be easy
I'm betting the odds are pretty good that at least one person who's played that game and has modding skills would nerdgasm at the opportunity to do this.

Man, I want a new SF game.
You and me both, brotha.
It would take more work than modders usually go to, unfortunately. The change in era would require all new models and textures. You'd have to work in an MP system, and probably a new defense system with damage reduction, due to the amount of melee in the game. You'd need new animations as spells replaced rockets and grenades. You'd need a new glam cam system to handle the new animations. And lots and lots of new maps.

But my gosh, it would be glorious.
