Run Cleanup before new backup
I really crave more flexibility in acronis. I keep running out of space, I have enough room on my backup drive for 2 full versions (but no more). It would be fine for me if acronis could keep 2 full versions, but delete the oldest before starting a new one. is this possible?

You could submit a Feedback requesting this feature.
As Steve said, this goes against the current Acronis philosophy of not deleting backups until a new one has been successfully created. I believe the function you want is supported by some other products, and Acronis would certainly rather have you stay with Acronis products, but I think they would need a very persuasive argument in order to change this philosophy.
A potential problem with the "delete first" idea is that something could prevent the new backup from being successfully created.
