Speaking of Ira, what weapons should I give to mercs that can't hit shit? Should I focus on throwing a ton of cheap lead at the enemy and using them in supporting roles or give them the most expensive rifles with the most modern optics and attachments available to try and make up for their shitty accuracy and maybe rack up some experience?
>>3749182
Poor marksmen cannot not take full advantage of optics IIRC
I use the poor marksmen to suppress the enemy; even one shot can make the enemy crouch, lose AP, and then decide to back off.
If you can keep them at from rushing you, your good shooters can pick them from at a distance
This is how I survive playing insane, all counterattacks enabled
>Take Chitzena as first city
>14 hours later, 80 troops (mostly elites) counterattack
>>3749226
That's good, since it's been my tactic so far. Pick up the best shitty SMG that uses something like 9mm ammo and just dump it all in the general direction of the enemy next encounter to prevent them from getting to anyone important.
>14 hours later, 80 troops (mostly elites) counterattack
Resist the urge to lame it out on a rooftop.
Is new CTH worth using for 1.13?
>>3749182
>what weapons should I give to mercs that can't hit shit?
anything with good range
or if it's Razor, throwing knives

where's dis?
>>3749918
it's not new anymore bruh.
How do I get gud at this game? I have Wildfire on Steam. I have experience with turn based games, but this one pounds me relentlessly.
>>3749918
No. It's trash.
I don't know what the fuck they were thinking.
>>3750497
Could you elaborate?
>>3750515
I would, but I don't understand their new logic of when guns should hit and when they shouldn't. It's like an alien made it.
>>3750515
Basically guns have horrible accuracy but gain a bonus to hit with each miss. It's a good idea in theory but it ultimately does not work.

Jagged Alliance 2

It should be a subsystem at most, but it seems like the guy who made it knew one tidbit about shooting and wanted to rewrite all the calculations around that.

Where do I get those deals IRL
>>3749918
It's alright. It's better for certain types of guns than others and precludes you - and the enemy - from making those stupid 1% shots that are massively out of range with the intent of hitting one thanks to bullet drop.
>>3750475
For me, having more mercs is better. Some players seem to play with elite squads of 4 guys, but on insane difficulty you will be overrun. If you have a bunch of cheap, shitty mercs, they can suppress the enemy and buy time for your IMP to kill them.
You did pick sniper and scout for your IMP didn't you?
>>3755745
Can't you only have 6 active mercs in a map?
>>3755940
I don't remember about vanilla JA2, but in 1.13 you can have up to 32 mercs total, up to 10 mercs on a squad, and multiple squads in a sector. You just use the number keys to toggle between squads during combat

I don't understand the Ira hate
Some of her lines are funny
>I don't know much about history
>Majored in humanities
And with her high Dex and Wis, plus the fact that you get her so early, she turns out to be one of my best mercs
I put her in the squad that discovers new sectors and give her the second best gun in my arsenal until I get Manuel, a 1:13 add on
Best merc
>Don't mess with the vest, scooter.
I'd really like to get more behind the scenes information on the making of this game. The accuracy of the physics and projectile ballistics in this considering it's an isometric 2D game is astounding to me.
>>3756859
Yeah she's pretty much Magikarp power on a smaller scale and doesn't cost anything. Also don't rebels get a bonus to training militia?
>>3748474
Lesbo
>>3756859
The Army! I knew we'd see them sooner or later!
Her voice just gets really grating quickly. And she's nowhere near as amusing as the other mercs.
Kinda upset that I can't play this with Windows 10.

I just upgraded to windows 7 and I find that to be a problem for JA2
I had to install it in its own C: folder, set it to run as administrator, and it's still wonky

must be patchable, 1.13 works fine on Win7 here
>>3748474
i got your nose.
>>3759773
>waiting for a fix
Seriously though, I did everything that was listed on the Win8/10 compatibility fix for 1.13 and it still crashes after a few minutes. The only thing that has worked so far is setting compatibility mode to Windows 95 but it runs like shit.
>>3759961
I had no problems with JA2 when I still used Windows 7 as well.
>>3760895
I already did that and while it fixed the stutter, it still crashes every few minutes.
>>3760959
Did you try the old stable version?
>>3761883
I'm not going back to 4870 if that's what you're asking.
