title: What is the difference between "initial scope" and "requirements"?
body: <p>Thanks for taking the time to read this in advance.</p>
  <p>I am writing an intermediate submission report for a project that I am re-engineering and my tutor wants a page summary, list of requirements (with justifications), an initial scope and a suggested architecture.</p>
  <p>The main report will include analysis, design and implementation.</p>
  <p>I've written everything apart from the initial scope. I'm really worried I'm going to repeat myself and I am unsure as to what the difference between my requirements and initial scope should be?</p>
  <p>Here is an example of a requirement:</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>The first option on the main menu will be “New Game”</p>
  <p>Current system: A user is automatically taken to a new game but they are restricted to     completing this game, before they can start a new one.</p>
  <p>New system: The option to start a new game will give users more flexibility if they do     not wish to complete the current one. The default level for games will be “low” to begin with, unless this is changed by the user.</p>
