About Jagged Alliance 2 · JA2 Web
Jagged Alliance 2 combines a strategic campaign with turn-based tactical combat. You recruit mercenaries, choose a squad and work toward liberating Arulco from a dictator. The people you hire are central to the experience: their abilities, equipment and relationships give you different ways to approach the next operation instead of treating every soldier as interchangeable.
Think about the campaign and the immediate battle separately. Long-term decisions determine who you can support and what equipment reaches them, while a tactical encounter asks where each mercenary should stand and what they should do next. Move carefully through unfamiliar areas and avoid sending the entire squad down one exposed route. Begin with a team whose roles you understand, then learn how to combine those roles before expanding into a complicated, expensive force.
How to play
- Recruit and equip a team of mercenaries.
- Command individual squad members in turn-based tactical encounters.

Beginner tips
