Character Profiles

This mini-sequel to the award winning Jagged Alliance 2 will bring back a few memories and provide some new ones. Moving into Tracona, a neighboring country of Arulco, you'll once again want to hire the best mercenaries your money can buy from A.I.M. and M.E.R.C. While the Arulco residents you met have all returned to their lives, all of the mercenaries are once again available (unless you've loaded a saved game from Jagged Alliance 2 in which case the only available personnel will be the ones lucky enough to have stayed alive). Some have even sharpened their skills a tad.

Fortunately, the More Economical Recruitment Center, under the guidance of Speck T. Kline, has expanded once again. He's recruited two new combat veterans to top off his agency's roster - the kind of men you'll be proud to have on your team as you lead your incursion force into Tracona.

Gaston is a man who enjoys making love and war at the same time. As a former commando in the Marine de France, he's right at home in the world of combat and croissants. As a matter of fact, the only thing Gaston appreciates more than baguettes and bloodshed is himself. He's a sharpshooter and a go-get-her, who works best at night when the lights are out and he's on top.

At times, Gaston's huge ego can be rather trying, but it's matched by a marksmanship of 94, and a sense of self-importance that borders on the comical.

A piece of advice: he's extremely proud of his homeland, so be selective with Gaston's teammates. He has little patience and extreme disdain for those who "think" they're French.

Stogie, on the other hand, is a cigar chomping, call-it-like-it-is, combat veteran. Specializing in heavy weapons, he has proven on many occasions to be a tough man to take down. His tank-like health of 98 wasn't built on physical conditioning or clean lungs, but rather on raw guts, courage and the will to survive.

Stogie may not be the most refined man to have ever put on a uniform, but he's been there, and there isn't much you ask of him that he hasn't done before. Calm and collected, he soldiers on weathering whatever war throws at him, then dishing out more. Stogie Horge is what every rookie hopes to be.

You'll also meet others in Tracona willing to help you with your mission. Some will even sign on to fight for your cause. You might even recognize a familiar face or two. And then, there's Manuel, your contact in Tracona. A man, whose wife was instrumental in your liberation of Arulco, a soldier willing to go to war one more time.
