-In the '1.13 mod' you can create more than one IMP, this mod is required.
The JA2/data/-directory origionally contains a file: IMP.dat, it contains info on the stats, items of your specific IMP.
In most versions for new games you could re-generate the IMP by typing in '90210': this would 'load' the IMP.dat, allowing you to skip the questions.
In 1.13 a change has been made: instead of saving the data to 'IMP.dat' the file gets named after your IMPs callsign.
e.g. Bob "Butcher" Bearpit -> butcher.dat
For new games you can then enter the 'callsign'.
(If you like your old-90210-IMP, you can rename the imp.dat to a callsign-name.dat, typing 90210 will still load the last-created IMP)
You can make as many individual-profiles as you like.
But you can only have 6 individuals on duty.
(3 voices, 2 sexes: 6 possibilities)
If you have 2 mercs with the same voice, 1 of them will be 'cloned' to match the other.
In short:
-90210-code can be used to re-generate the previously-generated IMP without answering the questions.
-for more IMPs you must have the 1.13-mod installed. (1.13 contains TONS-of-guns, coming soon: Diemaco C8-CustomTactical)
- Here J.T. has some .dat-files for downloading, these IMP's come with some more powerfull guns.
(Make sure you keep track of which voices are used.)

DO NOT YET Download: here .
(further down: the SVN-way gets you the most up-to-date version)
Install the patch ONLY if you have an older version of the 1.13mod allready installed.
I think that you should get the full version (76,2MB).
Hope it will work.
I started the download before typing: allready at 96%: Custom-Tactical here I come.
EDIT: the file I linked to contains no C7CT, that uhm ..sucks.
I've tried the update, no change.
Finally I've submitted to using the SVN.
Instructions and download link Here .
I've followed the instructions that MarlboroMan has posted there.
-Download/install SVN (32-bit worked for me).
-Create that empty folder on desktop and assign it to the SVN.
-Run the SVN with the adress posted in the link.
-No need to enter a password.
-I've used the Win-explorer to drag-drop the files/directories to the game-folder. (1st the 'files in the main folder', next the 'data' and 'data-1.13' directories.
