<P><B>Give me a better Liberty Island
<P>By The Confessor
<P>
<P>Okay. Let's say you're a military organization that's holding a small island with a tall structure in the center. You have *one* sniper rifle.
<P>
<P>Where do you deploy that rifle?
<P>
<P>If you answered 'on a ground-bound soldier actively patrolling a route of dubious strategic value,' you are *wrong!*
<P>
<P>But this is exactly what happens in the first level of Deus Ex.
<P>
<P>Also unexplained is the presence of so many situationally useless miniature crossbows, and the fact that the NSF troops remain in non-ready, at-ease positions even in the face of steadily advancing gunfire.
<P>
<P>The lack of air support *even though there is a chopper on-site* (it takes off when you first approach UNATCO) is also difficult to swallow. In fact, given the exposed position of many of the NSF troops, a chopper-based attack would be devestating.
<P>
<P>Also, if you could radio UNATCO troops to *advance to your position* after you've cleared an area, it would be a further improvement.
