Our take on Jagged Alliance 2 - Wildfire
The campaign’s breadth is paired with demanding management: team composition, relationships, training, reconnaissance, combat, and territorial progress all matter. The tougher opponents and three difficulty settings make this a strategy role-playing game that expects sustained attention rather than a quick tactical diversion.
