The goal? Defeat Deirdranna and her henchmen in tactical battles full of twists and turns. With a modular map system and flexible scenarios, you can play quick skirmishes or epic campaigns that last for hours. Each mercenary has unique skills and can be equipped with special weapons and gear, but beware: every action has consequences. Spending fatigue or damaging weapons can improve your chances, but it can also leave your characters vulnerable. Plus, time is against you — every rest advances the counter, bringing new events and enemy counterattacks. Get ready to manage multiple threats, liberate occupied sectors, and even face wild Bloodcats as you progress through the campaign. With mechanics inspired by games like Dark Souls and Imperial Assault, Jagged Alliance offers a deep tactical experience full of strategic decisions. ## FAQ ### How many players can play? 1 to 4 players. ### What's the average playtime?
