1.13.
Since I didn't feel like retreating and me being VERY tired of hearing "YOU'VE GOT MY EAR!"


If you don't already have it make a new folder in Data named BattleSNDS. Make a new blank .txt file in the BattleSNDS folder and name it 059_ATTN.WAV and you'll never hear that saying again.

I just had a moment. I'll call it... "Dynamo's payback".

1.13 mod. I was playing on experienced (realistic, tons of guns) with modified a .ini so the queen would be more aggressive. No saves.

I had sent Wolf and my IMP to take Tixa and get Dynamo out since Alma was almost my only source of income and they didn't really trust me. Wanted more income so I could get Magic Smile

So, stealthy approach during the night, fully silenced 5.56 weaponry and lots of armor. Piece o' cake, right?

Got in through the warden's office and got to the main lobby (or whatever you want to call it) from there without any problems. Even crawled under every window. As soon as my two mercs had passed the door, in strolls a redshirt equipped with a shotgun. My IMP takes two slugs in the back of the head collapses, dead. Wolf grabs his (unsilenced) SMG and mows the redshirt down.

Wolf then takes care of the rest of the sector and gains a few cuts and bruises.

Now, Dynamo's out. Figured I might as well get the lower part of Tixa too. Not too much hassle.
Bang bang bang, basement goes down without a single problem and Shank is free as well. Wolf did all of the work.

I go back up again plan to rest until morning. No such luck.
Just as morning hits, queeny sends a counter attack. 10 redshirts and 4 blacks. Since I wasn't really paying attention, I didn't know where they came from.

Wolf hands Shank his binoculars and then the poor busted up kid jumps up on the roof to do some scouting. BANG! Lil' Shanky instantly gets taken out by a sniper. God, I laughed so hard at that moment. Wolf was probably crying about his binoculars at that moment.

So, Wolf goes to close the door and BANG! Interrupt! Wolf takes a headshot from the same sniper. Lots o' damage. I later learned that he was wielding a light 50, so no wonder.

Wolf had about 20 hitpoints left and was bleeding heavily. Not that that mattered since he had no chance of getting away. Two snipers. Can you believe it? Two! As Wolf passed the window he got shot by the other sniper, fell to the ground and bled to death. More laughing from my part.

During all this, Dynamo had been standing by the stairs.
I didn't really have any hope for him to survive so I just picked up a nearby AK-108, walked out the door and waited for death. Two redshirts show up, Dynamo sets his AK to full auto and, huh? WHAAAT? He kills both of them! Even more laughing from my part.

Then I just had him sitting on the middle of the roof to wait for everyone to try coming up.

He got them all. Every last one and he didn't take one single hit. Amazing.

I had fun in Grumm once with militia. I was doing a daytime assault and thought I'd take advantage of the roaming militia - so I wound up with 20 militia reinforcing my 6 mercs. Most of them exhibited the usual dumb militia behaviour - running out into the open in front of enemies, tossing smoke grenades everywhere - but ONE militiaman... well. With his trusty Mosin-Nagant, he took down a good half-dozen soldiers, including at least two Elites, that were heading towards my mercs. Didn't move or anything, just sat there picking them off - I think the only shot he missed was a little later, when the soldiers caught on to the massacre and started camping in the warehouses - he shot at a guy on the roof and missed.

Man, I would have recruited that guy as a merc in a second. My own mercs miss at least a quarter of the sniper shots they make at that range.


I've seen the militia work miracles with the moisin nagant as well. mine was at the drassen airport on top of the ACA building. it was hitman and barry on the roof. hitman had a m21(sniper scope) and barry had a svd(pso-1) and next to them was a militia with a moisin nagant. Both barry and hitman were whiffing shots at distances where the militia hit EVERY shot. he even got some 1-hit kill headshots. I was duly impressed. He didn't have a scope or anything. Without him both hitman and barry would have been overrun for sure as there were 15 blackshirts and 5 reds

I had a militiaman WITH A KNIFE save everyone, once. My whole group was at one of the SAM sites when it was counterattacked and I foolishly had the whole bunch in a tight group. One of the attackers pulled out a mortar and OH CR*P everyone was down and bleeding. It looked really grim and then a militiaman ran right up to the mortar guy and knifed him. Alas, he went down in a hail of bullets from the mortar guy's buddies but he bought me enough time to get everyone back into cover and bandaged up a bit.

In the middle of repeling an attack on chetzina and a female soldier and a male militia run up to each otehr then spend the entirety of there turns standing next to each other standing crouchign and proning randomly. This went on for about 3 turns untill someone(looks innocent) fired a morter at them. they stopped wasting or indeed having turns after that.

mine happened in dressen (or whatever its called) at the mine section... i was defending a attack with about 2 mercs (a IMP and Trevor i think it was) and quite a few milita... a militia had two pistols and was standing in the middle of a firefight... about 3 black-shirts and 5 red-shirts were shooting all their ammo at him. all missed... and he was close to them! my turn... My Imp loaded his trusty Glock-17 and fired... i was aimming at a black shirt who was close and somehow... the shot ended up pass him... into the militia's leg and he collpses... i thought i couldnt hit him a second time and thought it was just a unlucky shot... i fired again aimming at the black-shirt... but guess what... the same happened again... it went pass the black-shirt and into the militia... i had to end my turn... the red and Black-shirts missed the militia again to finish what i did... and i thought i should kill him instead of seeing him there dying in pain... but i could no longer hit him so i retreated and let the other militia's defend... a miracle... the miltia survived long effort for my medic to come in the sector to heal him... (she was on her way into the sector just before the fight) then i fast forward it and i end up seeing him fighting in the forest with my medic... this time... he killed them all with his pistols... what a lucky militia...

I donno when ever I try and defend a sector with less than my main force, Its usaly like with Ira Biff and Some good guy like Wolf or Lynxs. For some reason every time my good merc gets Stun naded and I have to try and save him with the 2 crappy mercs its always funny.

i has this injured sniper on the roof. standing on the most foremost tile. i had one merc exposed but out of AP (the one injuring the sniper)

now my second merc who has too few AP to still fire his K31 sniper in this round takes a shotgun. Enemies tend to go crouch or prone when fired upon with buckshot, that can reduce their AP so much they can't do a good aimed shot in the next turn.
15 AP to fire unaimed. MERC has just 15 AP left. let's try this...

buckshot hits for 1 point! of damage to the leg of the sniper, sniper falls down from the roof taking 101 points damage.
now with so much talking about enemy luck shots going on, this was quite the contrary. and a very funny moment when that -1 incidential hit took him down from the roof for 101 points Wink

I had a lot of funny and frustating times, but yesterday something happened...
I was attacking drassen mine and one enemie left, he was bleeding because of -19dmg, so he was only running away (the red letters said he was only wounded). So I had Ira and Igor running after him, my mercs shot... miss. I wanted to se the guards life, but unfortunately (I think) I ended up putting Ira 1 tile away from him...

End of story... The guy tries to punch Ira, misses. Ira kills the guy with three punches on the spot, -30dmg

Now i can let her die, she killed someone with her fists Very Happy

My favorite moment was my first stealth mission. It was in Alma, the shooting range area. It was also my first time using camo and going into stealth mode for my squad.

Basically I had my IMP merc sneak upto a guard who was facing the opposite direction and standing next to a kiosk. i managed to knife him in the back with a critical. Then I managed to do the same to another sentry just near the gate barrier. It was the first time I saw how rewarding stealth can and how exciting. Now with the 1.13 mod, I rarely use stealth unless theres about 2-3 enemies left in the sector.

Later on in that fight I remember something going wrong and alarms going off and walls being ripped down, and some general threatening to kill me and throwing grenades everywhere..

An attack on Alma Mine. 22 enemies mostly elite. Militia 20 but all still green. Biff & Flo cowering somewhere safe(hell they only went there to train militia). Steroid who was just passing through uses his one mortar round while the enemy are still bunched up. After the blast a wobbley legged elite stands up and whips out a surprise LAW. Doh! He's critical and so is the rocket. It just blew up right there and finished off the rest of them for me! Could hardly believe my luck.

One of the most amazing moments just occured.

My team was hiding on the side of a house, and MD had a interrupt, spying through the windows at some goon creeping along the wall.

Of course, with his sixty something percent chance of hitting and a little pistol, I decided a hit out of a couple of potshots would do. I foolishly misclicked on the head after the first shot, to my utter shock, somehow MD dropped that troop with a massive single shot to the head.

Must be one of the most proudest moment from the weakest marksman in my team.

Some people use to win Drassen counter-attack by hiding inside of the bar and camping. The AI is dumb enough to come running anyways. We use to think, we are smarter, but I was stunned to see this. The AI of 1.13 must have improved decisively, judging from how a blackshirt just killed Dimitri. He was in the house an took out the poor rebel with one deadly blow of his AK-74.

It happened in the Camria recapturing phase, my defensive squad with militia support just entered G8. But judgment comes for this camper. Raider has got an AK-74 too, and the other one is trapped.

The picture has come out quite small, but if you look closely, you will see, that Raider just lets rip on the foe, APs already charged. Anyways he had just shot him dying in that scene. A militia has actually got the frag. Fine for me. Raider was buisy with the rest of the balckshirts then.

Location: North West SAM Site
Mercs involved: Biff

I'd left Biff to train Militia at the SAM site after losing most of them to the counter attack - he's just managed to get the full 20 green militia when another 20 strong attack occurs. "I hope their not here to fight" saya Biff. Unfortunately they didn't come for a BBQ and the green militia
are outclassed - 3 killed in the first round, 3 more in the second and another 4 or 5 are wounded or critical. Militia fire is almost completely ineffective at this point with not a single enemy even hit.

Then biff steps up to the plate - seeing a group of 5 enemy come through a gap in the fence, Biff gives a rousing shout of defiance and uses his trusty M21 to shoot the lead enemy between the eyes - not a kill but the enemy is critical and blocks progress for the others, several more of whom bunch up. Several more milita are killed and so far only Biff has even hit the enemy. Next Round Biff sees a badly injured militia about to be killed and rises to his knees to make a magnificent (75%) headshot that blows the enemy backward. Now exposed, several enemy fire at Biff but miss.

at this point, probably realising just who they are up against(Oh my god its BIFF!!!), the enemy panics 1 of the blocked group pulls a mortar and lights off hitting the fence and killing himself and 4 of his mates and badly wounding 4 more, 2 of whom Biff promptly dispatches. At this point Biffs leadership causes a massive militia rally - from being totally ineffective, they now pour accurate and damaging fire into the enemy survivors - within 3 turns only on badly wounded enemy is left and no more militia have died. The final enemy starts to run and reaches the map edge only 1 square from safety. Biff the stands tall again - rising to his feet he fires 2 shots unaimed - the second of which hits and kills the enemy.(from halfway across the map for crying out loud).

I never thought Biff was useful for anything but militia training but now I understand what Col. Leon Roachburn saw in this mild mannered, but potentially lethal 'man among men'.

Yeah. I had Biff and Flo hold off a whole attack by themselves at one of the SAM sites once. Flo was shooting wildly and Biff tossing grenades and pretty soon they were all dead.

I've recently started a new game: 3rd difficulty level, 2nd bobby rays level and some extra starting money because i wanted all my favorite mercs from the start.

Decided to capture the Drassen mine at night through an ambush. First time going out with all my 6 mercs, untill now Barry and Q did all the fighting while the others used their time repairing and training militia. Q got level 4 quite fast in the middle Drassen sector.

I set my mercs up behind the northern houses, Q and Magic left, Shadow and Igor in the middle and Barry and Ivan to the right, fired off some rounds and waited for them to come

After a while Ivan and Barry started to get a bit overrun so i sent Q to help them out. They were lots of elites coming around the corner and Q managed to get an interupt on a blackshirt and he trew a frag grenade, wich hits the guy i was seeing. I dont know what kind of stuff they had in their pockets but after the frag explosion, 3 more explosions occured killing 6 elites standing around that corner and i heard "There is no teacher greater then experience" Q was level 5!

i never leveled a merc that fast, i loved it!!

Had an absolutely priceless moment today... I was defending Drassen from the massive counter attack on expert in bright daylight. The enemy came from the right side first and I managed to defeat them pretty easily, then from the bottom and with some bad luck, all my mercs were at least lightly injured, my IMP even critical (HtH expert with dusters and 95 strength... could bring even the hardest enemies to their knees with two hits. The only problem with HtH is, that he was closer to the enemy than enybody else...)
Then the last wave came from the west with lots of elites and I was already thinking about leaving the sector to come back later, but one green Militia wandered off during the battle, right to the position, were the enemy appeared.
The blackshirts were all well-armed, mostly full-auto weapons and some explosives. One of them goes full auto, shooting about 20 rounds at the militia. Bad thing, he didn't notice there were five other soldiers between him and the militia... 2 down, 1 critical, 2 wounded and an evil laugh from the teamkiller.
A redhirt thought, it would be a good idea to throw a grenade. It was the best idea he could have (from my perspective) as it set of a chain explosion, killing another blackshirt and knocking another 5 or so unconcious.
The green militia died, but spread so much chaos among the enemy (without actually doing something, except dying Wink ), that the rest of the militia could finish them off with the help of my mercs.
I just love when the AD (artifical dumbness) hits with all its power Very Happy

I had five mercs taking on about twenty soldiers. My hardcore IMP started in the north-east corner, and my grunt group (Devin, Larry, Haywire, Bubba) started in the south-west. I let the cannon fodder make contact with the enemy, and had them in a line, putting down lots of automatic fire while the IMP slipped behind the enemy, offing stragglers with her VSS and locating enemy concentrations. All was going pretty well, until Bubba let fly a huge burst with his FN MAG. Every single round missed the three enemy grunts stood bunched together in front of him, but one managed to hit my IMP on the other side of the map in the head, killing her stone dead. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry!

Naturally, Bubba was involved in a nasty "accident" the next turn.

While I really enjoyed JA:DG, I realized I would love JA2 the first time I played the demo, and it's a moment I will always remember. I had little concept of tactics then, just charging ahead, and got Vicki waxed by a sniper on a roof. Remember, I'd just come from JA:DG. My God, I thought, a a real sniper! On the roof! They've really improved this game! Then Gasket piped up, crying over Vicki, saying he'd have killed anything for her. Wow! Cool dialog and real merc personality, too! Thrilled, I scrambled Ivan to cover, then tried fruitlessly to bring down the damn sniper. Ivan was almost out of ammo, and somewhere along the line, he'd picked up a LAW. A LAW, I thought. There's no chance of doing anything with an anti-tank weapon against personnel. But, Ivan's going to run out of ammo, so anything's worth a try. Ivan pops up and fires - dead on. Remember, I'm still in awe from the rooftop sniper and the dialog - when the sniper jumps up and starts doing the Flaming Dance of Death! I laughed so long and so loud, mostly in sheer joy, realizing how much I was going to love this game!

Of course, it took me hours of staring longingly at the sniper's dropped equipment before I figured out that Ivan could climb to the roof, too....

Orginal JA2 moment....Buns armed with one of those Russian bolt action rifles took the whole SAM site East of Drassen by herself. I went in at night and sniped from the shadows. She cut them down. She was wounded some by a shot gun blast and taking out the sniper on the roof (she climbed up behind him and he nailed her good but she had one of those submachine guns that takes 5.56 also and went full auto on him).


She and my IMP were also responsible for taking the SAM site on the western part of the island. They went in wearing full camo and had some good kills.


Spider may have quit because of Buns but she will always have a place on my team.

My second time taking Drassen in v1.13 (so I know what I'm in for), my autoX IMP and Buzz are trying to hold off the hordes. Three redshirts are standing like ducks in a row about a dozen spaces away. I decide to see if I can hose them down with the auto-mouse drag feature. I have my IMP click all the auto-rounds he has APs for, mouse-drag, release. All three redshirts go down under a hail of bullets - now that's something I've never seen before!

My second time taking the Eastern SAM site, two redshirts standing on the roof, one space separating them. My IMP lines up a head-shot with a sniper rifle on one and fires; the bullet goes through both redshirt's heads, dropping both of them, too cool! In vanilla JA2 I wounded two enemies with a single bullet maybe a couple times max. One-shot-two-kills!?! Hi-yah! I love v1.13.

vanilla JA2 war story...Seems I am the only one with any.

Back the first time I went through JA2 one of my three man groups was getting hunted by a 19 man patrol of Red and Blacks. I know I had Len and Wolf and another good grenade thrower. Anyway the boys are tired so I have them bunk down in Estoni. I always make sure I know where my guys sleep so I positioned them in the junk yard behind barriers facing the entrance. The guys get some sleep but sure enough the enemy shows....literally at the gates.

I start pounding them with every thing I have. Regular explosive grenades tear gas, smoke...several muster gas grenades. Also emptied a few rifles to them as they tried to fight their way through clouds of death. It was a nasty. They barely came close to getting into the yard and all but 1 died near the gate. The last one died not far way and he was wounded at the time. The enemy was slaughted in that ambush.

Shows what you can do with a good plan. I got a ton of gear that helped big time when I hit the capital.

I had a great one with Dimitri the other night. I had him repairing items in Drassen mine (he was reparing armour). After just returning from the airport he was at the top of the map. Drassen being my drop off sector had tones of guns and ammo but none near poor old Dimitri!

He was supported by about 10 blue militia. They got jumped by 20 enemies with 15 being elites.

It started with Dimitri dropping everything and legging it over to the Mining building while the enemy pushed up the middle and started encountering the militia. As they were distracted Dimitri ran to the middle of the map to pick up a gun! After selecting an AS VAL and the VSk-94 plus an RPG-16 as backup he runs off to the bar as the militia are steadily up the north of the church.

After getting up on top lies down and take aim across the lit area to the North of the toilets. The lone militia left is covering him on top of the building. After firing a shot from a C7A2 he picked up to get them heading towards him he managed to dispatch the last 11 enemies across the square with 15 ap's a turn and at half breath using the VSk-94 and a lucky shot from the RPG which missed all the guys at the front and critically wounded 6 guys he could't see when it hit the corner of the grey brick building to the NW of the toilets!

Go Dimitri!!!

The most priceless moment in my JA2 career was when I finally found the game many years after enjoying the demo (40+ plythroughs) and realised that right-clicking the mouse allowed you to spend APs aiming.

I got sick inspiration by AZAZELs story at the at page 2 of this topic, the one about Lenn interupting Conrad and taking his legs. I decided to go tease COnrad with my IMP.
She interupted the poor sucker and shot him once to head with silenced P90, AET roud. 83 damage and Conrad got beheaded. Neat and(not so) clean Very Happy
If he's so good instructor he should know better than start a fight with level 10 merc, right Very Happy

Other very priceless moment was a bug with new inventory mod. I removed attachments with shift+f, anf the game somehow created over 1500 sniper scopes...

Oh, first time Haywire got psycho in my 1.13 game completely dropped my jaw:
"Haywire goes psycho"
"Haywire fires 43 more rounds than intended"
poor blackshirt took over 300 points of damage Smile
Never liked Haywire before, but after that I always hire him

Hey kids,
This is my very first post after probably close to a year of just reading.

But I just gotto tell you about the time i held chitzena mine against 50 mainly black shirts with just 10 green militia,gumpy and flo on INSANE setting.
INSANE sometimes involves a lot of creativity and more often a hell of a lot of loading and saving.

Anyway, the road south of Chitzena mine had been taken by a massive force about a day before which had also been reinforced already to more than the map could display, i saw them comming and had about 10 green militia and gumpy and flo, so i decided it was time for an A-team style battleplan


so I gathered up every single bit of explosive in chitzena: dynamite,frag grenades mini grenades, 40 mm grenades, jumping grenades everything and let gumpy drop them to the north west side of the ACA building near the north end of the road.
it was comepletely filled up with stuff that went boom.i laid a trail of damaged mini grenades north behind the ACA to were flo and gump were lying in shrubs.

When they came up with a force of 20 they were quickly reinforced to the full strength that was south of chitzena. I was so nervous i can still remember the cursor shaking. I saw the first one through my scope somewhat further down the road than the ACA building and opened up.Headshot 2x, dead.

soon they were rushing in, but lucky for me mostly via the road.My plan was working they were clustering around the west side of the ACA building. my last militia were rushing to their death no matter how often ordered them to lie the f**k down.


Time to cast the last grenade i had saved. Gumpy threw it right on target, consecutive explosions towards the south ending in a circle of dinamite plastic explosive and jumping grenades.

About 30 dead another 10 wounded and dying.

After that i smoked myself up and let the come real close.

As the last ones limped through the smoke i popped them with an m-14.

Gumpy and flo got up. I WON! iwon! i won!

I just had a priceless moment.

Attacking Alma at night, v1.13, New inv beta8.1, 6 IMPS helodrop into sniper alley. Hawkeye (sniper IMP) spots an enemy sniper on the roof and snap fires twice for 167 damage to the head with his newly captured SVD. But instead of dropping.. you have him here "Dead On His Feet"
:sleep:

When Pablo stole from one of my shipments and I was so pissed off that I used Grizzly to punch him in the head; damning all consequences. Little did I know that this was a viable option. If that's not depth of game play, I don't know what is!

Secondly, in 1.13, I was attacking the mine in Alma (which means 'apple' in Hungarian?!) from the south and no matter what I did, neighbouring forces would overwhelm me every time. Stealth was the key. Dmitri being my only thrower at the time stepped up to the plate and took out 16 shirts (daytime) with shurikens with the rest of the team serving as eyes with their scopes and binoculars. It took a *very* long time but was ultimately worth it. The other 4 were taken out with guns and by that stage I had taken strategic position to cope with the ensuing onslaught.

Jagged Alliance 3 has a lot to live up to.

Just had a Priceless moment in Cambria. Took the two Eastern Sectors and busilly trained up militia. The second day, my two mercs and about 30 militia repelled a daylight counter attack in the SE sector. Perko is running around while the lead was flying and gets hit in the leg and goes down. So after the battle, I grab my first aid kit and run over to see if I could score some points with the locals. I patch Perko up then talk to him. He gives me the standard first line: " So you are the one's that are blowing everything up..", I talk to him again and here comes the priceless moment..
He says to my crouching merc in front of him "You know, while you were down there..." :biglaugh:
