Elder III Posted May 7, 2023 Posted May 7, 2023 I had a few minutes to spare . so I went through a couple videos and made a list. These are from the recent Beta, and I don't know if it will be exactly the same at launch or not. Recruit Steroid Fox Mouse Omryn Livewire Kalyna MD Igor Grizzly Barry Veteran Fidel Raven Thor Wolf Ice Blood Meltdown Buns Grunty Elite Ivan Vicki Raider Tex Nails Dr.Q Red Hitman Legendary Gus Magic Scully Reaper Sidney Shadow Scope Fauda Len Enjoy! 🙂 1
Lunokhod Posted May 7, 2023 Posted May 7, 2023 Game froze in 1999. Shame. Btw why Sidney in "Legendary"? He is such a douchebag, did anyone actually hire him? Where is Trevor? He was the smartest merc in JA2, tech genius. 1
DougS2K Posted May 7, 2023 Posted May 7, 2023 If you include non AIM mercs, your missing Smiley and LOBO. I think they are recruitable as they don't show up on AIM but have been seen in squads in gameplay footage. FYI. I compiled a list of the mercs we've seen so far a while ago here. 1
Lunokhod Posted May 7, 2023 Posted May 7, 2023 So its -9 normal looking white guys("boring snowflakes") and Buzz(sexy af). -10. And +4 "mickey mouse" characters. Jesus...

Yeah, I am going to miss Trevor (and Buzz). I did use Sidney on at least one play-through, but won't miss him that much 🤣 1
Xeth Nyrrow Posted May 7, 2023 Posted May 7, 2023 Thanks for this list, now put all their stats up and start a wiki. 🙂 14 minutes ago, wInevitable said: Yeah, I am going to miss Trevor (and Buzz). I did use Sidney on at least one play-through, but won't miss him that much 🤣 I really likely Trevor as a character but he was kind of unusable. Once he got to level 4 (which was easy with his high wisdom) he became the most expensive merc and he still had 5 levels to go.

Lobo jajaja thats my nickname btw, was a I.M.P. merc, the person named it wrongly though, for women it should be Loba.

Where is Trevor? He was the smartest merc in JA2, tech genius. I never really played with Trevor, the 1 & only Australian merc, yes he had 1 of the highest wisdom stats together with Henning von Branitz. BTW how can you give to Steroid wisdom 62 ? He is by far the most brainless merc of all imo and his quotes are even dummer in JA3 then in JA2. I would not give him more then 10 wisdom. He thinks muscles power over brain then giving him wisdom 62 ? Simply ridiculous.
Inquerion Posted May 7, 2023 Posted May 7, 2023 1. I'm mostly happy with this roster, though I hope that they will still expand it a bit with some completely new mercs, as well as some "joke" or "challenge" mercs (like Flo or Biff) in the future... As well as some former (it's now defunct for ~1 year I think) MERC mercs. 2. I'm suprised that Barry and Igor are still just "recruits". Barry was one of my favourite mercs; highly intelligent, so learns quickly, loyal and friendly. He would reach 90+ marksmanship very quickly in JA2. 3. I think that 62 wisdom for Steroid is ok. He wasn't too bright but he wasn't a brainless zombie like Bubba with his 29 wisdom either. Steroid could pick locks and repair equipment too, you know? 4. @Lunakhod. Game is set in 2001. 2 years after events in Arulco (JA2) and 1 year after Miguel's death at the beginning of JA2: Unfinished Business. 5. I wonder who "Fauda" is. Nice to see some new Legendary mercs as well. 6. As people already said; I wouldn't mind proper JA3 wikia with detailed list of all mercs, their skills and their portraits either 😉 7. I wonder how moddable this game will be...likely not much unfortunately :(. Hard to mod edit/add new mercs without proper modding tools. 1

Where is Trevor? He was the smartest merc in JA2, tech genius. Sidney was level 4 since Ja 1. No idea why Fox present since Ja 1 Is still a recruit while Tex (present in Ja 1 but an actor during Ja 2) is elite. Also where are the psycho guys? Fidel seems the last one, Malice isn't there anymore and they were cut in Ja 2 already. They need an AIM for problematic mercenaries.
Image Miroir Posted May 8, 2023 Posted May 8, 2023 I expect some new ones, as colorful and memorable mercs. From AIM, my favorite was always Shadow.

Most definitely they must bring few DLC`s packs (new mercs, new outfits, new weapons etc...), it will be great for us and for them. 2. They could leveled up a little but like you said the events separated just by 2 years, am sure once JA4 comes out and takes place sometime around early or mid 2010`s (oh yes we want to use the FN SCAR) all mercs stats will also have some changes. 3. Yea but to be a good lock opener and mechanic you dont need much wisdom. In real life i saw plenty good mechanics with low wisdom. And Steroid`s quotes shows in JA3 he become even more retarded ever then before lol. 4. Ohh i forgot that Miguel was dead (R.I.P.), played Unfinished Business only once years ago. 5. Guess you are not following the dev diaries and trailers, she caught my attention from day 1 (since i saw her in the official poster). Finally a merc from the middle east, wish there will come more mercs from exotic countries. 6. There is already a very good Jagged Alliance Wiki so am sure shortly after the game is out there will add up Jagged Alliance 3 in there. 7. We dont know as yet anything for sure, hopefully they will leave there a wide variation of possibilities for modding. Hope after a year or so they will make a great mod like 1.13 or Wildfire.

I'm not really sure on the hireable mercs from the game world other than Smiley as he was in the devs streams in the past. I listed those mercs as RPC in my spreadsheet based on what others have said but have no real details on them.

Only way i can see it is that he can mix in with high class clientelle as if he belongs, as a spy, and off important people in inconspicuous ways. That is an artform after all. But he is hardly a leader of groups or a frontline hardass like Gus or Len. I hope maddog makes a comeback. Edited May 28, 2023 by Taurean

Just make them cool looking.

I kinda liked Trevor - I believe in one of my (longer) playthroughs I had him at level 8 or 9 - his price was just outrageous though. I see a nice "Outback" DLC here where Trevor comes in with a band of australians. As it goes for smaller number of available mercenaries - just make the game work, additional stuff can then easily be added through updates/expansions/DLCs.

Thats's what I've found so far: Flay is definitely recruitable — the whole way is shown in this stream by DrProof. The recruitment dialogue itself is at 2:29:06. Flay seems to be a controversial character though and DrProof chose not to recruit him — so we don't know his stats yet. Smiley is likely to be a new M.E.R.C. guy. I noticed the quest to find him in the same video at 20:16 — and it is marked as a M.E.R.C. quest. There are two more M.E.R.C. quests there btw — and I believe at least one of the guys mentioned there might be recruitable (see below). Pierre is heavily featured as an NPC in almost every stream but I've never seen the option to actually hire him. Still his model is present in the feature trailer among playable characters — he's standing between Meltdown and MD and right behind Scope. Since every other character in this part of the trailer is playable — I believe so is Pierre. I strongly believe we might have an opportunity to hire yet another old friend but I lack strong evidence. The guy was seen here and the same character is present in the feature trailer standing alongside our regular mercs. There is no UI in this part of the video though so zero proof that he is actually a part of the squad and thus that he is recruitable or at least playable. I don't actually know who Lobo is — never seen her anywhere. If someone can give me a hint — it would be much appreciated. And many, many thanks to you for compiling all this data for us and especially for the spreadsheet with all the stats and prices. It is incredibely helpful and absolutely priceless! 2

Lobo was most likely a IMP, you can't name a female as Lobo anyway as it's masculine. For female it suppose to be loba. Flay is hireable so is Pierre & Larry as it seems. 1

Thanks for the link with timestamp. I skimmed through a lot of the non-English speaking previews because, well, I can only speak English so I have no idea what they're saying. 😁 Possible I missed a lot as some of the previews were pretty long. Guess I could have used CC now that I think about it. I'll add Larry to the spreadsheet as that definitely looks like he's hirable. As for Lobo, I get the feeling that they were an IMP created merc like @LoboNocturno mentioned which is why I removed them the other day. On that note, I've started adding weapons and armor as well to the spreadsheet if anyone is interested. 😉 https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14JcHKZscRWZ5onz2O_4hWE-K-_tHFPYtig4ppovH2n0/edit#gid=0 If anyone has info for other mercs or weapons not on the spreadsheet, leave a message at the following subreddit link and I'll add the info to the spreadsheet. 2 2

Incredible 🤩 I've seen screenshots with Galil and FAMAS but seems they lack some stats — no info on AP cost for single shot and long burst. And they are unlikely to be burst-fire only. Galil is featured in Steam and FAMAS — in showcase trailer (1:50). Also noticed a G36KV and a PSG1/MSG90-looking sniper rifle (not sure what exactly it is) but with no stats at all unfortunately 😕
