Dr. Q. I've never played a game of Jagged Alliance 2, or SOG'69 without him. He has a very lovely way of speaking, and always seems to have an inner calm about him.
He's also the best butt kicking medic I've ever had. Despite his 66 marksmanship, he preforms as though it were much higher. Also, since I am a huge fan of stealth and close quarters combat, its not hard for me to raise his marksmanship anyways.
When I first had him knock someone out, steal his beaten up old pistol, and had him go on a killing spree with a glock and a desert eagle, I knew I had a keeper.
***
Since playing SOG'69. Igor has become another one of my favorites. I got him two modified Pythons, and it was very easy for me to imagine him as a Russian cowboy.
*Igor draws his handgun and fires it at an enemy sniper on a rooftop, hitting him in the head and causing him to fall off*
"Rock und roll!" (thats what it sounds like)
One thing I love about Jagged Alliance games. Characters aren't funny because of what they say, but how they say it.
I'm sure Ivan must be very proud of his nephew.
***
My favorite from the series is Ellio from JA1. He moves REALLY fast, and can throw grenades and plant explosives like noone's business. His 21 marksmenship was never an issue for me, he more than makes up for it with his physical stats and uncanny speed.

My top 5 mercs are:
1. M.D
2. Vince
3. Ivan
4. Igor
5. Gus
I like M.D. He's a good medic, learns fast, and with a little training turns into a superb sniper. I also liked his personality: He's an idealistic kid in this crazy world of hired killers... but damn he learns how to be a tough guy quickly. Vince also was very likeable. I liked his enthusiasm. "YES SIR!"
Ivan and Igor work so great together, even though Ivan is a tough old cuss who's likely to swear at me and talk about taking everything for himself in russian. Igor I liked very much. His speech when Ivan dies makes me very sad and reach for the quick load button.
Gus is just Gus, and that's why he's awesome. Also he likes using big guns on burst fire, which I like ver much. "The name's tarballs. GUS tarballs!"

Oooh. That's tricky.
Overall, I think I'd have to say Ivan. A little tweak in the XML and he carries around an RPK with a GP-30 attached, denying large areas of the map to the enemy. And the constant muttering in Russian - complete with Cyrillic captions - amuses me to no end. And what the hell is his positive exclamation? It sounds a lot like "Starve!".
As far as the lynchpin goes, though, it's Len. Hard for me to imagine liberating Arulco without the steady core of the team that is Corporal Anderson.

My votes are all about who I like the best. My mad Russian is far and away the cornerstone of my capture/hold teams, while Len is just the most rock-solid professional soldier I've ever had the pleasure to employ. He's good with an automatic weapon, physically fit enough to carry a full combat load and sneak in with the backup team, and brings valuable experience to my militia-training efforts. He's a good man, a better solider, and certainly deserving of a higher rank than Corporal.

Shadow. Shadow. SHADOW!
Gnaa, I think I'm in love with this guy.
Shadow is so cool, I quote him at least five times every day.

well ultimate team for me (thorough this post, ultimate means "not-so-bad-but-as-cheap-as-possible-and-yet-ultra-cool" )
Razor, Haywire, Dimitri, MadDog, Blood, Barry, Hamous
(Every merc in the game can achieve the "perfect merc" status, just give it some time) (i usually get to kill deidranna having Ira at lvl 7 without fighting a single battle)
Quotes:
" I'm here, i ate everybug on the way, there were many "
" Blood's Bleeding Blood "
" They're trying to kill me. But i am, Professional! "
" I'll be boss in no time "
" Yes boss man "
Others: Steroid, Scope, Trevor, Reaper. (IMO Reaper is the secretive one, not shadow, shadow's just sneaky, reaper is the cold crazed and yet very "professional" killer).
I think i must have finished JA2 like 15 times, and yet i only played like 7 or so of AIM's mercs, only used reaper, gus, ivan, shadow, scope, lynx, stephen, trevor, steroid, barry, bull, MD, wolf, fox, blood. "tried" some others for like 10 mins...
Fav Merc (as 2 other people said): "Maddog"

Hmm... having just to choose one merc as favourite is harder to pick than a broken nose. However, here are my selection of favourite mercs & they would be Trevor, Hamous, Razor, Haywire [Time to kick some ass!] Grunty, Ivan & Igor.
