You know how it is - you're browsing the web, go on a deep dive on some border war, and the next thing you know, you're sat there looking at a strange webpage.



Whoo, who doesn't like personality tests?



I mean, my latest YouTube payment just came in, as well as my Patreon, so I have a bit of money to burn. And I do like a bargain....
Lets do this – Lets become a mercenary!


Okay, jokes aside, welcome to my video LP of Jagged Alliance 3. Those of you with above average IQ (sadly only half of you, possibly not including me) may notice the lack of a video – this is because we're going to be building my avatar through the medium of votes.

It should be noted, I've decided to go into this one blind! I've played half an hour, to get an idea of the controls, but I have next to no idea of the story. So this is probably going to end poorly!

So, on to the questions.



Nice to know that google and facebook are selling off my information to trustworthy folk. Now on to the questions!












Well, that's not the weirdest personality test I've ever seen, and I doubt their going to be able to guess my passwords from that!



The last important job is to pick a name and the all important nickname.



After that, we will need some support, I'm sure we've just designed a expendables style badass, but even then their only one merc – so lets hire some support.

I'm going to list everyone, but some of these guys are obviously late game hires – I have $50,000, and at some of these weekly prices, I'm going to go bankrupt quick – so let's go for the rookies eh?

No. Okay. Free choice it is!



Duke nukem from wish!










These are the noobs, the cheap hires.











The veterans are more costly, but obviously better.










The Elites are great, but they would annihilate my bank balance.

So, please place your votes -

This seems like an interesting game to watch, I'll put up some votes. The seventh question for the personality test seems to be missing.

Merc Name: Jesse Cassidy
Nickname: Sunup
Questions:
1. The shooting range.
2.Got drunk, and killed them all.
3. Hunted down our enemies, and their enemies turned on us.
4. Don't care, it's a dummy location.
5. "I've got no time for this."
6. Shot the guy with the knife.
7. Killed the guy.
8. Did it by the book.
9. They died of lead poisoning.
10. Investigate and find out more about them.

Hires-
Leili "Livewire" Idrisi

Oh nice! I really like JA3, and I'm looking forward to this!

Merc name & nickname: Whatever you like, but I think the black dude portrait looks the most professional.

1: C
2: B
3: B
4: D
5: C
6: B
7: D
8: D
9: B
10: B


As for mercs:

1: Livewire
2: Barry. Unger.
3: Livewire & Barry Unger.
4: Restart the game until you can get Livewire and Barry Unger.
5: Fox. Having a medic AND a teacher in one character, along with her great passive, are worth her cringeworthy lines.

Mission's one and two, and the training wheels are on - not that it doesn't cause the first reload due to me not reading cover right!

Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is the 45th and current President of the United States. Before entering politics, he was a businessman and television personality.

Can you still punch a dude and then steal his gun out of his hands? It was a fun silly gimmick in JA2 that also gave a bunch of free crap to sell.

I clear out a village of legion grunts, and then go play in a minefield.

I have to say, I feel like you guys have picked me a good team here, I think I have my areas covered.

Seriously, the enemies seem like they're making some reckless moves to attack odd targets. One of them ran right up to Livewire, and took a shot at Barry.

Are they programmed to go after who they think is vulnerable?

Seems like unaimed shots are pretty much a waste of AP? Like if you can guarantee a headshot that's generally better than taking two low% potshots?

Oh, well, if we're working for Corazon Santiago we're gonna crush. After all, our superior training and superior weaponry have, when taken together, a geometric effect on our overall military strength.
