You soon learn that mercenaries are a disposable commodity, so don't go getting attached to them.
It's here that you can browse the personal statistics of an army of mercenaries (stats which, for a change, have a massive bearing on their performance), hire goons and acquire arms. The front end is a mock-up of a laptop computer that provides access to an Internet scarier than the real thing. However, beneath the shoddy exterior is some remarkably lifelike animation, and a control interface approaching perfection, turning what could have been a multiple keypress nightmare into a game you can control almost entirely with a mouse. Looking at the screenshots, you're no doubt balking at the sight of such dated isometric 3D graphics (which belong somewhere back in 1996). Scouring The NetĬontrolling up to three squads of six mercenaries, you're tasked with organising and executing a military coup on behalf of a deposed foreign government. This outing is a team and turn-based role-playing, strategy and resource management affair, an ambitious melding of genres that plays superficially like Commandos, but demonstrates strong X-COM 3: Apocalypse leanings too. Although entitled Jagged Alliance 2, this Is actually the third instalment in the series, following on from the original Jagged Alliance and its expansion disc The Deadly Games.
