Gumpy and Flo were overrun in the mine sector of Alma which they were not prepared to defend. There were only 10 green-shirt Militia defending against 16 mixed black-shirt and red-shirt soldiers. Gumpy and Flo beat a hasty retreat to the outhouse at the north of the map. I should have retreated them off the map, but I said to hell with it -- I am sick and tired of retreating, I'll have these two kill the enemies one at a time as they enter the outhouse.
As Gumpy and Flo were primarily militia-trainers, they were not well armed... Flo had a .45 Thompon SMG and Gumpy had an FA-MAS.
They were only level 2.... not really experienced enough to get the first shot (interrupts). I really shouldn't have made them make a last-stand like that, but I just felt like it.
The first round of contact, they killed a single redshirt, and they had to use up all their APs to do so.
The second round, an elite barged into the outhouse and killed Flo immediately with full-auto 7.62mm fire. She died right in front of the toilet.
The third round, Gumpy sprayed at the elite with full-auto fire and only hit him once... way to go, Gumpy! The elite offered him the option to Surrender and I knew that Gumpy had no other choice.
Gumpy was taken to the jail in N7 and interrogated. Joe really kicked the crap out of him. Even Elliot took a little swipe at poor Gumpy, for 2 damage points.
Gumpy never made it past the first guard. He threw the throwing knife at the guard's head and hit him for 9 points of damage. Gumpy then retreated around a corner and waited for the guard to follow.
The next round Gumpy punched the guard twice, for 8 and 4 points of damage... the guard fired a full-auto MAC10 burst into Gumpy and he fell to the ground and bled to death.
(I think that's the first time I had a MERC who could not escape from the prison... Gumpy was just too weak and low-level to make it out!)
Good riddance to Gumpy anyway, I didn't feel like listening to his crap this campaign.

Quote:Originally posted by DNA from the Lowlands:
Yeah, I get 'a kick' out of seeing a low-level merc having gained +20 on a stat.
Is that normal...? Absolutely normal, IMO.. Though, beating the cr** out of the Humvee is really a cheeseball, so i stopped doing that. Also stopped 'waltzing' my mercs in front of that window in Tixa (for agility boost) and, instead, i focused on jumping on baddies from behind and beat the living daylight out of them for stats boost.Tank-bashing is also a no-no. I really enjoy the 8000+ 'mod' because with all those thousands of baddies you can train almost every single merc in A.I.M in the very same campain. I also keep 'salivating in anticipation' when analyzing my 'personnel' sheet on the laptop.Seeing how many stat improvements gained say, Hamous, fills me with some kind of joy.
Chazz.

I don't start a game without Razor when he is a level 5 or more he is a killing machine, I have never seen any other merc kill like he does, his psycho bonus must really help. The prison I have never had a merc at maybe I should try it once, but my hit and run tactics are very good. I was trained using them in real life about ten years ago, and they really work in this game also.

Yes FLO has high wisdom. She is actually easy to make a killing machine only issue is she is a coward. So despite becoming a good merc is always making those cowardly comments.

the interrogation scene is used if you have already conquered the prison in alma
but that's not the point. somebody told me there was (some early ja2 version, whatever) an interrogation cut scene in Tixa (not N7)
But i think it's impossible that there is or ever was an interrogation scene at Tixa. Please falsify
