What happened is that the modders are under certain restrictions - because they have the source code released to the original under that usage - and because they aren't allowed to allow in anyway any money to be made off of that source code. You can also find out a lot of info at the Bear Pit, which has changed website addresses a while back, about all things Jagged Alliance. Not sure if we are allowed to post the website here, so I'll avoid it. It will run from the CD disk or DVD versions, but you may have to do a few things before-hand, all minor. That is the last so-called Stable version - but it actually is being still developed with more features. Like go to and search for Jagged Alliance 2 v1.13 mod, and you'll find tons of info there. If you go to a search engine you'll find the website for the Mod. Throw in some solid visuals and a neat interface and you have a cracking bit of entertainment.V1.13 mod is not difficult to install.
The missions are pretty varied and require plenty of strategy, making them highly satisfying and exciting in equal measure. However, if you're new to the game and are looking for a challenge, then there's a lot to enjoy here. If you have played the base game, then there's probably not enough here to warrant further investigation, although the balancing does up the difficulty level and make things more realistic.
What's different in Wildfire is largely cosmetic, with most of the 250 maps being modified, with new buildings, vegetation etc, new weapons, and some general tweaking of both weapons and enemies. It's your job to overthrow a vicious dictator, and this is achieved by completing a series of missions where you control your mercs and send them out to kill the bad guys.The whole thing plays out in turn-based fashion and is viewed from an isometric perspective. The base game is the same, in terms of gameplay and story, finding the player and their mercenaries caught up in a complex bit of political fun and games in some third world country. Jagged Alliance 2 is, if not the best in the series, pretty typical of what you can expect from any of the games, and Wildfire is a standalone expansion which adds in some interesting new features. The Jagged Alliance series is a surprisingly extensive set of tactical strategy games that harks back to the likes of Laser Squad and which provides some pretty entertaining action.
