>play game with a myriad of improvements, bugfixes, re-balances, and the loving curation of decades of fan effort
vs.
>play game rushed to market by overworked developers
I'm not getting any younger, and only have so much game time left in life. I'm not going to waste it futzing around on some barely finished product

>Why does Jagged Alliance 1/2 never get any attention on /vr/?
Because /vr/ is mostly consolefriends
JA threads get pruned to make way for "blocks your path" and "look what I bought"
>How do you usually set up your teams?
I play a modded insane so I need as many shooters as possible
I have a few good shooters and a lot of bad ones
The bad shooters slow and suppress the enemy to give time for my good shooters to hit them
Otherwise, I get overrun and it's a TPK

>night fighting
I never really got the hang of it. With my settings, I always take heavy casualties when I fight at night.
>Fidel
Psychotic is one of my favorite traits but $2000/day is too rich for my early/mid game

Poor marksmen cannot not take full advantage of optics IIRC
I use the poor marksmen to suppress the enemy; even one shot can make the enemy crouch, lose AP, and then decide to back off.
If you can keep them at from rushing you, your good shooters can pick them from at a distance
This is how I survive playing insane, all counterattacks enabled

You can also marry Flo to the Hicks
