In 1996 or something I was totally hooked on the first Jagged Alliance, but eventually I stupidly sold it off to someone. Several years after that, I picked up the sequel and got hooked all over again. There's something about games like these, like Dungeon Keeper and Civilization, that provides an almost endless replayability. I always want to come back and see if I can do better than last time. Anyway, I was curious if other people here have played it.

In case you've never heard of the games or forgot about them, in both of them you're given an assignment by someone to free a small South American country from a dictator. You get cash and can hire mercenaries from a database, each with different skills. Their skills increase as you apply them on the battlefield, battles are turn-based, and each mercenary has his own quirks.

The only thing that sucks is that the version of Jagged Alliance 2 I have is horribly littered with bugs. I think it's largely because some idiot software distributor made a half-assed attempt at translating the text in the game. Now, guards setting off an alarm causes the game to crash, as well as the explosion of all types of grenades. I wouldn't mind getting my hands on a plain English copy of the game... or one of the first one.
