Yeah, when they say "over 6000 lines of speech" on the back of the Deadly Games box, they're not kidding, there is easily more than sixty or so possible line of speech for each of the seventy one merc depending on the situation:

When they're shot by mercs, by enemies, shot at but missed, shot but survived, spot an enemy that shoot at them, spot one enemy, spot more than one at the same time, sneak on an enemy, kill an enemy, wipe out the enemy team, when they're ordered to shoot a merc, shoot a merc they like, shoot a merc they hate, when their friend dies, when they're groped by male or female mercs. When they find items, retrieve a quest item, destroy a quest item, succeed a mission (different depending on the current objective), fail a mission, withdraw from a mission, when you are about to run out of time to complete the mission.

When they're bleeding, agonizing, exhausted, drowning, bored out of their mind, steal your money and run. When they cannot shoot at a target, their gun becomes jammed, their gun becomes useless, they run out of bullets, when they fail to combine explosives, fail to modify a gun (or fail at sneaking), find mines, are asked to disarm bombs, are asked to do something stupid (like use medkit on the ground), when they're ordered to do something they cannot because they're stuck.

When you read their bios, hire them, fire them too quickly, when they quit on bad term, when they quit on good term, when you rehire them after they quit, rehire them after you fired them too quickly, ask them to repeat themselves, piss off their friends, get a high turnover, death, mission fail ratio, both when they're on your team and when they're on call, several lines each when you haggle with them on their salary, when the campaign is over, when you get ripped off by Micky, when they quit because of another merc, when they threaten other mercs, when they're asked to work with someone they hate, when they snitch on other mercs.

Plus the quotes unique to the psycho and forgetful mercs, plus the multiplayer taunts and auctions in between players, plus the dozens of standard grunts like "Yes?", "OK", "ouch", "it's empty", "crap"... It goes on and on. And most of the quotes from Deadly Games are different from the quotes from Jagged Alliance.

When I was updating the Wikia, I made myself a couple of crash courses to expose a merc to as many situations as I could in order to extract as much quotes as I could. And every time I thought I nailed most situations, I managed to find a couple more situations that gave me unique quotes. Although several mercs are not that funny, and their quotes were often not worthy of making their way onto the Wikia, being exposed to so many quotes from them really helps to flesh out their personality. Getting Biff through the crash courses however was just awesome, it's not just the quotes themselves, but the delivery, the emotion the voice actor put in the quotes.
