How to get mauled in 1 turn[message #210601]

There's an impassable map spot that is one of the last areas of the game. I sent in 6 guys, and cleaned it out. I then started to send my second 6 man team in. Upon arrival, all the baddies respawn, including crepitus, and they eat up all of my original 6 man team in a single turn. Mad

I will finish this mod soon, in just 1 playthrough. It's good, but unpolished, and probably doesn't stand up to all the modern mods that have come out since.

JA2DL is the grandpa of JA2 mods and what actually opened the way for things like JA2 Urban Chaos and later, like 10 years later, these new fancy mods.

It's worth playing only for the twist in the plot alone, I'd say... I remember that left some jaws dropped even among original Sir-tech developers.

And remember, it's all done by hex hacking blindly at the exe, no fancy source code available, nothing.

If you take it for what it is and dont expect to play JA3, yes. It's sort of decent fun.

Deidranna Lives was released in 2001 IIRC.

Just the Weaponmod that ramfall put together was far beyond anything out there and I think that the Rail Gun was one of the greatest strokes of genius to come out. Of course my preference is the Barret .50 but then again, I love things that go bang or go boom!

Of course once the source code was released it became very rudimentary but it was like building a Space Shuttle before man orbited the Earth.

I'm glad that people are actually still playing this puppy.

.50cal with HE-AP explosive bullets (the default) was awesomeness, it had a 7.62x51mm minigun as well, and the Marines caseless assault rifle from Aliens film series.
Back then it pretty much made everything fresh and people explore majority/all of the sectors finding new things.
