My team early in JA2 is Me,Fox and Shadow,i also play 1.13 exclusively
Silent death himself and his healer,then i lean on Dimitry for his expert throwing (knives), while stealthed,at night in camo with the rest of the team at his back in case it goes to hell,the team consists of Me,Shadow,Fox,Ira and Dimitry
Shadow for his high accuracy and suppressed weapon,Fox for being the best damned DR in my price range,Ira because i can mute her and Dimitry because he's free and also KNIVES,i micromanage them,they are the lead team in the worst of the worst sectors
I'll generally take something automatic because I'm the loosest cannon in the team and it feels like when i go frenzy mode i get more hits than misses
Shadow will usually upgrade to having a silenced FN90 and Five Seven,Fox with the extended dualies,maybe a non russian Assault rifle,Ira with a Steyr Aug and Dimitry with a shotgun,because he's dead if he's found anyway
Then there's team daylight,team daylight are pure hollywood style,Normally consisting of Red,Scope,MD and Len
Red with a shotgun,Scope covering him with a sniper rifle,MD as his entry buddy with preferably a P90 or something CQC and Len again with a Steyr Aug,FN Fal or something something assault rifle,but these are their primary weapons
Red will carry explosives (duh),Scope normally with an RPG,MD with nades and Len,Len gets a talon underslung nade launcher
I carry 3 clips of 55.6 on each going into each mission for those carrying that type of weapon,maybe a spare on a random with a lower used weight percentile
I take my mercs lives extremely seriously
I remember playing one of the modded campaigns sneaking through the streets at night and all hell broke loose,we were pinned behind this armcote barrier,50 or so enemies running in,my squads had swelled to 6 a peice and everyone was there,with smoke,explosives,nades and a sheer force of bullets we survived,well 9 of 12 did,Ira,Scully and Magic died that night,it felt like an absurd warzone,god it was fun
