Facts For the Loading Screen

Hi All,

We're adding a line to the loading screen that will show random fun facts about JAF and JA in general. We thought it would be cool to get some cool loading facts from teh community about JA that we could add to the game, so this is your chance to get something in the actual game.

It could be information about a certain merc, story pieces for other JA titles, Fun facts about weapon type, ammo...yeah ANYTHING that is related to Jagged Alliance.

I can't promise that we'll add every single fun fact/loading fact, but just getting a lot of cool ones to choose from will great and add value to the game. 

Looking forward to your input!

There is always an action point left for lighting a good cigar!

Numerous tipps/jokes about cigars like from: http://www.wikihow.com/Smoke-a-Cigar

Also with some tutorial like pictures would be cool. The counterpart to the Fallout Boy :D

Do not inhale the cigar smoke. A cigar is not like a cigarette. The flavor is meant to be savored, but not inhaled.

The longer and wider a cigar is, the more intense it will be. If you're a beginner, you should start with a longer and thinner cigar instead of a small stubby one, which will make you more likely to cough.

Before you buy the cigar, you should gently squeeze it to make sure that there aren't any spots that are too hard or too soft. This may indicate that the cigar will give you a bad draw or that it won't even be smokeable.

for that it would be nice to know which mercs are included in JAF. Quotes or fun facts about mercs that are not included don't make sense i think

One question regarding these facts. In the demo I thought some of them are really funny. But only if you knew JA2. So this is for JA2 fans. But we would like to add some new players to the community as they can secure the next development of a successor or an rooftop-addon =)

"Wisdom, makes you think". =)

Will these random facts be presented on nice wallpapers (like in JA2?) so that newcomers can "ignore them".

It's also a way to introduce newcomers to the JA world.

Btw, Fox has not made her decision regarding her favorite song yet. She is hesitating between Sex Machine and Somedoy to Love. :-)

Of course Nails' favorite song could only be Riders on the storm.

I would assume so, but I don't know at this point. Would need Jesper to make more, but he's busy enough at the moment :P
