If you have this particular trigger set on, then any time your mercs run into a bad guy the plan-and-go interface will launch so that you can always give the most prudent and immediate orders in a combat situation. There’s also a healthy load of triggers that you can set for the game to automatically go into plan-and-go mode, the simplest example being encountering an enemy combatant.

With plan-and-go, you can pause the action at any time to give individual orders to your little guys, with significant details like taking prone or crouching positions or staggering the order sequence between soldiers so they time their actions together. Enemy positions can also be seen from anywhere on the map now, unless they’re hiding in buildings. Once you take your mercenaries into a level, you can order them wherever to move quickly and easily in real-time. The studio is developing the new Jagged Alliance 3 Haemimont Games, which has created games such as Tropico, Surviving Mars, Victor Vran and many other game projects. The turn-based gameplay and the survival elements are good enough, but in other areas there are tons of shortcomings that not only disappoints the old fans of the series but also fails to ward off competition from other turn-based titles available on the market. THQ Nordic has officially unveiled the game Jagged alliance 3 for PC in the debut gameplay trailer. Players lead 4-character squads into missions, taking advantage of each members strengths to complete objectives.

In this iteration, battle revolves around the “plan-and-go” system. Jagged Alliance: Rage is yet another release that uses the Jagged Alliance name but fails to deliver. Judging by a brief glimpse of gameplay we got to see during a press event earlier this week, Jagged Alliance 3 taps into the same style of turn-based tactics as its predecessors. Going out on a limb and departing from the traditional turn-based action of the series, developer bitComposer has thrown in the spicy meatball that is real-time strategy… sort of. Aside from the 3D graphics update, it may not seem like there’s a whole lot that’s different about Back in Action-until you get into the nitty-gritty of the missions.
