alma also has a prison. your POW mercs go there first! the only go to beach prison if you've already conquered the alma prison sector

it's said to be tricky to free them. in an unmodified alma prison, the enemies release mustard gas on your imprisoned mercs if you're not ultra-silent and/ or fast
so you can, but i think it's hard, under the aggressive and overgarrisoned 1.13 AI i would say that's quite a challenge
if your mercs get imprisoned at n7 however, they have to try to free themselves (in alma, you need to free them from outside) but they only have a knife and a weak pistol against a heavily modified enemy garrison. so that might be very interesting for those interested in HTH, sneaking and the like

If Tixa is already captured, and your mercs get captured, it will trigger an interrogatory with Queen Deidranna itself, she'll ask one of your mercs several questions, and you can lie or tell the truth, for every time you lie, Joe will beat you... If you manage to survive, you can move your mercs, find some weapons and kill Deidranna, Elliot and Joe without taking out Meduna!
Once my IMP got beaten by Joe, after I lied, then I simply ordered her to punch Joe, and... He didn't fought back! This way I killed Joe, Elliot and Deidranna, without much trouble XD

lockieboy oh boy , thats interesting news lucas san , is info from patusco's or experience ? wonder what other scenarios weird an wunnerful we can get up to ? :biglaugh:
It's personal experience... Specially because once the interrogatory is over, Elliot himself puts your mercs in a prison cell, but he forgets to lock the cell... "ELLIOT! YOU IDIOT!!!"
Here's the info from Patusco's JA2 Strategy Guide 1.3:
"There are 3 locations where your imprisoned mercs are to be kept. Before you capture Alma, prisoners are taken to sector I13, Alma military prison. After you capture it, the mercs will be imprisioned in sector N7 (where normally are loads of LAW

how did you manage? do you remember the routine of conquering towns or anything extraordinary? sci-fi mode? tixa yet unrevealed on the strategic map?
i also mean the thing about the "your custom merc" that is flat-out wrong, the delusion of the knife being there depending on whether you lie or not... (all from first paragraph)
entertaining. Might be misleading some new players, but entertaining nevertheless
(*wtf? i told the truth and there was still no knife?*)

i think i'll have to try Tixa getting them to Tixa. But there can be no cut scene at tixa, so they'll be placed in one of the cells, just like in alma, i guess?

Your IMP merc don't need to be the P.O.W to set the interrogation scene.
I've tried with Gumpy.(I,ve had him and Hamous in my team but I prefer Hamous to Gumpy.
I'm cruel.....) :transform:
WTF did make Lucas think this way......?
