Aliança irregular 3 – Guia completo de finais

Here’s a guide to help you unlock all the endings in Aliança irregular 3 by making the right choices.

Introdução

Apenas um aviso, much of what you’re about to read is based on people’s personal experiences and lots of trial and error. Não tive a chance de me aprofundar no código-fonte real, but if we find better info, I’m all for updating it. If you’ve got any feedback, drop it here or on my HIVE blog version of this guide.

AVISO: This article is loaded with major SPOILERS for Jagged Alliance 3. It’s geared towards folks who’ve already finished the game at least once and want to explore different outcomes based on their choices. Not newbie-friendly!

Towards the end of the game, you’ll get different ending slides depending on how you handled various quests and decisions. This guide is all about documenting those ending scenarios and how to reach each one.

Apenas um aviso, this guide is a work in progress. I’ve still got some more playthroughs to do to cover all the endings, so it might be a bit before everything’s wrapped up.

Visão geral dos finais

No final da sua aventura, you’ll be treated to a series of ending slides, each revealing different outcomes based on your choices:

• Intro Slides: You’ll always see the same 2 intro slides.
• Government Slides: Expect 2-3 slides here, depending on whether you saved the President and if the Colonel met his fate.
• Rebellion Slides: This section, consisting of 3-4 slides, outlines the civil war’s status and rebel forces, detailing Pierre’s fate and the Major’s decisions. It hinges on sparing Pierre and your actions towards the Major, influenced by the President’s rescue and the Colonel’s demise.
• Red Rabies Slides: Prepare for 3-4 slides reflecting how you handled the Red Rabies quest. The best outcome involves saving the President and eliminating the Colonel.
• Diesel Slides: You’ll encounter 2 or more slides based on your resolution of the Diesel quest. Sometimes these slides might not appear.
• Pantagruel Slides: Expect 3 or more slides concerning Pantagruel’s fate and the potential union of Chimurenga and Maman Lilliane. The optimal conclusion involves rescuing the President and eliminating the Colonel.
• Green Diamond Slides: Esses 2-4 slides reveal the Green Diamond’s destiny.
• Court Slides: This section comprises 4 slides, reflecting the amount of Conspiracy evidence you gathered throughout your journey.

Intro Slides

Every time you start the game, you’ll see those same two intro slides:

You’ll notice that Emma Lafontaine narrates the ending, sparking the question: can she even die?

If you head to Port Cacao, you can try attacking her with free aim, but she’s basically immortal. No matter how many shots you fire, she just won’t go down.

It might seem like a glitch, but it could also be a clever mechanic. You could use it to rack up damage stats for Marksmanship and Strength, or accumulate injuries for Medical skills.

Government Slides

There are four potential outcomes for the fate of the Grand Chien government, which hinge on the survival or demise of President Lafontaine and Colonel Faucheux. Each combination results in a distinct ending scenario:

• In the Eagle’s Nest battle, to save the President, you gotta make sure he’s alive when it’s all said and done.
• If he’s gone, it’s either because the Legion got to him or you took matters into your own hands with some precise free aim shots.

• To knock out the Colonel for good, you gotta wait until the showdown at Fort Brigand toward the game’s end. He’s untouchable before the Refugee Camp tragedy and invincible during the first half at Fort Brigand. No luck getting rid of him at the Refugee Camp either.
• If you want the Colonel to make a run for it, you’ll have to rough him up a bit first. Once he’s injured, he’ll radio in for his getaway boat. Então, he’ll head for the docks, como mostrado na captura de tela. Às vezes, no entanto, the AI acts up, and he’ll stick around even when he’s almost done for. It gets especially glitchy if you set off his evacuation signal, thin out his troops, bail out, then come back. I’ve found it trickier to coax him out if I attack from below or the east. Better luck pushing my team closer to the docks, nudging him in that direction. Então, I sneak some squad members behind him, circling from the tunnels or his office, to steer him toward the docks.

A. COLONEL’S COUP SUCCEEDS

Required conditions:

• President is DEAD
• Colonel ESCAPES

B. PROVISIONAL GOVERNMENT

Required conditions:

• President is DEAD
• Colonel is DEAD

C. CIVIL WAR

Required conditions:

• President is RESCUED
• Colonel ESCAPES

D. GOVERNMENT IN CONTROL

Required conditions:

• President is RESCUED
• Colonel is DEAD

This is the ultimate ending. To unlock the finest Red Rabies and Pantagruel finale slides, you must attain this outcome.

Rebellion Slides (without Pierre)

Atualmente, I’m in the process of documenting the outcomes that occur when you decide to execute Pierre at Fort Leau Bleu. Here’s a summary of the four endings I’ve observed in various YouTube videos.

The ending slides provide insight into the status of any ongoing civil war, including the presence of remaining Legion, militia, or army forces. Adicionalmente, they shed light on the fate of the Major.

Among the different categories of ending slides, this particular one exhibits the widest range of possibilities. Especificamente, there are at least four potential endings that result from executing Pierre (and five if you choose to spare Pierre).

A. CIVIL WAR BECAUSE THE MAJOR LEFT THE LEGION

• And the situation in the Adjani region is a disaster.
• After completing his service to you, the Major slipped out of the country unnoticed. His Legion, Contudo, remained. They scattered into small bandit groups and resumed terrorizing the region.
• With so much instability, the rebellious army battalions could not be isolated and the country has descended into civil war.
• I’m certain we will emerge victorious in the end – but it will take years and many will die before that happens.

B. ARMY MAKING STEADY PROGRESS AGAINST LEGION

• We are still having trouble restoring order to the Adjani region.
• When you killed the Major, his Legion turned him into a symbol of resistance – wearing t-shirts and tattoos of his face, burning villages in his memory.
• The army is making steady progress towards destroying Legion units, but it will be some time until the Major’s evil influence has been completely eradicated.

OU

• We are still having trouble restoring order to the Adjani region.
• After completing his service to you, the Major slipped out of the country unnoticed. His Legion, Contudo, remained. They scattered into small bandit groups and resumed terrorizing the region.
• The army is making steady progress towards destroying Legion units, but it will be some time until the Major’s evil influence has been completely eradicated.

C. LEGION DEFEATED AFTER THE MAJOR COMMITS SUICIDE IN PRISON

• Although it was difficult, we finally restored order to the Adjani region.
• My father proclaimed the Legion a terrorist organization and offered rewards for the death or capture of its commanders.
• This resulted in many Legion commanders being turned in by their own troops, especially after they learned the Major had committed suicide in prison. The Legion officers now await their trials.

D. THE MAJOR DIES FIGHTING THE REBELS

• I was given permission to make a deal with the devil. I offered the Major the opportunity to earn an official pardon if he agreed to fight on our side. He accepted.
• He fought bravely and lead our troops to many victories before dying from mortal wounds. Thanks to his sacrifice, the renegade forces were scattered and we averted a civil war.
• I awarded him a posthumous pardon and waived all criminal charges against the Legion. I dislike the injustice of that, but at least there is peace.

Rebellion Slides (with Pierre)

The final screens at the end of the game describe what happens after any civil conflict, including the presence of any remaining Legion, militia, or army units, and the outcome for characters like Pierre and sometimes the Major.

In terms of the ending slides, this category offers the widest range of possibilities. If you chose to spare Pierre and persuaded him to join you, há 5 potential endings. Por outro lado, if you decided to execute Pierre, there are at least 4 possible endings.

Several factors influence which ending you experience:

• #1. Did you execute or spare/recruit Pierre at Fort Leau Bleu?

• #2. After defeating the Major at the Eagle’s Nest, did you execute him, send him to prison, or recruit him?

It seems like the game’s focus lies more on the decisions made regarding Pierre and the Major rather than their actual status at the end of the game. Even if you spare and recruit Pierre and recruit the Major, but they both perish during gameplay, the ending slides may still depict scenarios like Pierre hunting down the Major or visiting him in prison. To verify this, I deliberately caused the demise of both characters by having them encounter landmines.

As for the distinction between sparing Pierre and recruiting him versus sparing Pierre and leaving him at the camp, it’s uncertain if there’s any significant difference. Given the game’s apparent disregard for their survival status, whether they are alive or deceased, it’s unlikely that this choice alters the outcome in any significant manner.

• #3. Was the President rescued or killed?

• #4. Was the Colonel killed or did he escape?

Think of the “bom” outcomes as rescuing the President and killing the Colonel, e o “ruim” outcomes as the President being killed and the Colonel escaping.

The endings will differ based on whether you achieved both bad outcomes, one good and one bad outcome, or two good outcomes.

A. JUNTA CRUSHES REBELS BECAUSE PIERRE IS BUSY HUNTING THE MAJOR

Required conditions:

• Pierre is RECRUITED
• Major is RECRUITED
• President is DEAD
• Colonel ESCAPES

This is probably the worst ending. It requires both bad outcomes.

B. CIVIL WAR CONTINUES BECAUSE PIERRE IS BUSY HUNTING THE MAJOR

Required conditions:

• Pierre is RECRUITED
• Major is RECRUITED
• President is DEAD
• Colonel is DEAD

OU

• Pierre is RECRUITED
• Major is RECRUITED
• President is RESCUED
• Colonel ESCAPES

Suppose you recruit both Pierre and the Major, então:

If you get both bad outcomes you get “A. Junta crushes rebels because Pierre is busy hunting the Major.”

If you get one good outcome and one bad outcome you get “B. Civil war continues because Pierre is busy hunting the Major.”

And if you get both good outcomes you get “E. Pierre enlisted as special military advisor.”

C. PIERRE DIES A HERO AFTER ASSASSINATING THE COLONEL

Required conditions:

• Pierre is RECRUITED
• Major is EXECUTED or in PRISON
• President is DEAD
• Colonel ESCAPES

The ending doesn’t talk about the Major, so it doesn’t matter if you killed him or put him in jail. If you recruited him, você verá “A. Junta crushes rebels because Pierre is busy hunting the Major.”

For this ending, both the President and the Colonel need to face negative consequences.

D. PIERRE DIES A HERO DEFEATING THE REBELS

Required conditions:

• Pierre is RECRUITED
• Major is EXECUTED or in PRISON
• President is DEAD
• Colonel is DEAD

OU

• Pierre is RECRUITED
• Major is EXECUTED or in PRISON
• President is RESCUED
• Colonel ESCAPES

In this ending, there’s a mix of positive and negative results for both the President and the Colonel.

The ending doesn’t refer to the Major, so whether you executed or imprisoned him doesn’t affect it. If you recruited him, você verá “B. Civil war continues because Pierre is busy hunting the Major,” which still involves one favorable and one unfavorable outcome.

E. PIERRE ENLISTED AS SPECIAL MILITARY ADVISOR

Required conditions:

• Pierre is RECRUITED
• President is RESCUED
• Colonel is DEAD

This ending is the most favorable for Pierre – he joins forces with the President, and there’s a suggestion of a romantic involvement with Emma. Para conseguir isso, both the President and the Colonel must experience positive outcomes. If you fulfill these criteria, you’ll encounter three specific fixed slides:

Following these fixed slides, you’ll encounter a fourth slide, which varies depending on the fate of the Major – whether he was executed, imprisoned, or recruited:

Red Rabies Slides

These slides primarily hinge on whether you aided in developing a cure for the Red Rabies. No entanto, achieving the best ending also necessitates both positive outcomes: rescuing the President and eliminating the Colonel.

A. RED RABIES BECOMES A PANDEMIC

Required conditions:

• Completely skip the Red Rabies quest

OU

• Fail the Red Rabies quest by killing Dr. Kronenberg

B. RED RABIES PARTIALLY CONTAINED

Required conditions:

• Complete the Red Rabies quest (ou seja. Dr.. Kronenberg finishes her research but dies)

E

• Either President dies and/or Colonel escapes (one good and one bad outcome or both bad outcomes)

C. RED RABIES FULLY CONTAINED

Required conditions:

• Complete the Red Rabies quest (ou seja. Dr.. Kronenberg finishes her research but dies)

E

• President is RESCUED

E

• Colonel is DEAD

This outcome represents the optimal resolution for the Red Rabies crisis. It depends on both positive outcomes for the President and the Colonel.

One perspective is that only a stable government possesses the necessary resources to complete and distribute the vaccine. If the junta remains in power (both negative outcomes) or if there’s civil unrest (one positive and one negative outcome), Grand Chien lacks the capacity to effectively contain the Red Rabies outbreak.

In the event that you successfully complete the Ubahn quest by sending Dr. Gruselheim to the Sanatorium, Dr.. Kronenberg does not meet his demise. No entanto, it’s uncertain if the slides regarding the “unfinished work of Dr. Kronenberg” e o “posthumous medal awarded for her sacrifice” are still featured in this scenario.

Diesel Slides

The inclusion of these slides depends on how you resolved the Landsbach quest with Siegfried and Bounce. Adicionalmente, it’s possible for the Diesel slides to be omitted or skipped in this scenario.

A. SUPER SOLDIERS IN LANDSBACH

Required conditions:

Completely ignore Landsbach or fail to complete the Diesel quest

• Speaking of health risks, I was alarmed to discover that someone had been experimenting on my people with combat drugs!
• It seems that those reckless people in Landsbach have created some kind of biolaboratory dedicated to making super soldiers.
• Claro, it was not a problem you were ever expected to solve. Ainda, I wish you were here. I can’t think of anyone better to deal with “super soldiers” than you.

B. PARTIAL SUCCESS???

Required conditions:

• Complete Landsbach quest without learning the secret of diesel. Might also cover scenarios where you side with either Siegfried or Bounce.

C. DIESEL PRODUCTION IS STOPPED

Required conditions:

• Complete Landsbach quest

E

• Stop Siegfried

E

• Kill Bounce

E

• Learn the secret of diesel

Work In Progress: Need to explore the non-optimal endings by failing the quest, siding with Siegfried, siding with Bounce, and failing to learn the secret of Diesel.

9. Pantagruel Slides

The Pantagruel slides change based on what you do with Chimurenga and the Maquis and whether Chimurenga and Maman Lilliane end up together. To get the best ending, you need both good outcomes: rescuing the President and eliminating the Colonel.

A. LE LYS ROUGE IS BURNED

Required conditions:

• Completely ignore Pantagruel

(May be other ways to get this ending as well)

• One thing is certain – the Adjani Valley will never be the same. Much has been lost.
• One of the most heartbreaking examples of this is Le Lys Rouge in Pantagruel.
• One night, a group of drunken Legion thugs set it on fire and it burned to the ground. I do not think the Carnival celebrations in Pantagruel will ever be the same…if they ever happen again.

B. MAMAN LILLIANE AND CHIMURENGA GET MARRIED. PANTAGRUEL BECOMES A FREE CITY.

Required conditions:

• Alcançar 100% loyalty with Pantagruel, Chimurenga gives you control of the Maquis and goes to join Maman Lilliane

E

• Either President dies and/or Colonel escapes (one good and one bad outcome or both bad outcomes)

C. MAMAN LILLIANE AND CHIMURENGA GET MARRIED AND ARE ORGANIZING NEXT YEAR’S CARNIVAL

Required conditions:

• Alcançar 100% loyalty with Pantagruel, Chimurenga gives you control of the Maquis and goes to join Maman Lilliane

E

• President RESCUED

E

• Colonel is DEAD

The best ending for Pantagruel is achieved when both the President and the Colonel have favorable outcomes. This ensures that Pantagruel remains integrated into Grand Chien. If the junta gains control (both unfavorable outcomes) or if civil unrest erupts (one favorable and one unfavorable outcome), Pantagruel evolves into a free city instead.

Work In Progress: Need to explore the non-optimal endings by killing the Maquis, killing Chimurenga, killing the Maquis but letting Chimurenga go to Maman Lilliane, and ignoring Pantagruel completely.

Green Diamond Slides

These ending slides depend entirely on what happens with the Green Diamond that Biff Apscott found at Diamond Red.

A. GREEN DIAMOND AUCTIONED FOR $55 MILLION. EMMA IS LIVID.

This is the default (ruim) final. There are several different ways to get this ending such as any one of these possible conditions:

• The Legion kills Biff and gets the Green Diamond
• You cash in the Green Diamond
• The Green Diamond is left in sector stash
• The Green Diamond is dropped as loot on a map

B. GREEN DIAMOND AUCTIONED FOR $55 MILLION BY BIFF

Required conditions:

• You saved Biff from the Legion

E

• You let Biff leave with the Green Diamond

C. GREEN DIAMOND AUCTIONED FOR $55 MILLION AND HALF IS DONATED

Required conditions:

• You saved Biff from the Legion

E

• You convinced Biff to give you the Green Diamond (with either Smiley and/or detoxed Larry) OR you killed Biff for the Green Diamond (a la Smeagol killing Deagol)

E

• You have the Green Diamond in the inventory of one of your mercs at the end of the game.

D. GREEN DIAMOND IS SHOWN AT THE MUSEUM

Required conditions:

• You saved Biff from the Legion

E

• You convinced Biff to give you the Green Diamond (with either Smiley and/or detoxed Larry) OR you killed Biff for the Green Diamond (a la Smeagol killing Deagol)

E

• You donated the Green Diamond to Emma for the museum

To secure this ending, it’s crucial to accomplish before defeating the Major, as Emma departs for the capital thereafter. Adicionalmente, Emma’s departure is triggered if enemy forces seize Port Cacao. Portanto, to maintain control and ensure Emma’s presence, it’s imperative to defend Port Cacao until the Green Diamond is donated.

Court Slides

No “Conspiracy?” busca, you can gather six pieces of evidence. These findings shape the outcome of the game’s finale, leading to one of three possible endings.

It appears that each piece of evidence holds equal weight in the game’s mechanics. Portanto, the outcome of the quest depends solely on the total count of evidence collected, regardless of the specific pieces obtained.

The pieces of evidence are:

#1. Biff Apscott’s testimony

After you rescue Biff, talk to him and he will agree to testify on your behalf.

It is possible to miss this piece of evidence if Biff is killed by the Legion or you let him leave without asking for his help.

#2. Proof that Col. Faucheux was behind the atrocities at the Refugee Camp

When Corazon Santiago requests a meeting at the Refugee Camp, head over there and successfully complete 1 Médico, 1 Sabedoria, e 2 Explosives checks before engaging in conversation with Colonel Faucheux. Exhaust all dialogue options, and after defeating the army troops, this action will manifest as a piece of evidence.

Keep in mind that after overcoming Corazon Santiago, this item may disappear from the Conspiracy? quest log. No entanto, it still contributes to the evidence count even if it’s not visibly present.

It’s worth noting that you can overlook this piece of evidence. If you inadvertently trigger the army invasion by nearing the Major (Dead Animal Crossing A18, Sturmwasser Island B18, or Clifftop Overlook B20) before visiting the Refugee Camp, the army seizes control of the Refugee Camp, preventing you from conversing with Colonel Faucheux.

#3. Adonis documents exposing Corazon Santiago from the Hermit

To acquire this piece of evidence, commence by completing the Haunted Mansion quest, assisting the Ghost Butler. Próximo, aid the Hermit in repelling the Legion’s assault. Engage in conversation with the Hermit and uncover his true identity as Mike Ditch, the former Adonis CEO. Return to the Haunted Mansion and inform the Butler that the owner is indeed alive. Posteriormente, revisit the Hermit and request his assistance.

It’s crucial to note that missing this evidence is possible if the Hermit meets an unfortunate demise. If you deceive the Butler regarding the owner’s fate, you can later confess the truth to him, revealing that Mr. Ditch is alive. Despite the revelation, the Butler will depart for the jungle to see Mr. Ditch, enabling you to obtain the evidence. No entanto, lying to the Butler will result in a morale decrease.

#4. Corazon Santiago’s correspondence with the Major and his mercenary contract

Following the victory against the Major and his troops at Eagle’s Nest, engage the Major in dialogue by selecting the option: “Do you have any evidence against Corazon?”. If successful in passing an influence check, the Major willingly provides the evidence.

It’s essential to note that you can overlook this evidence if you fail to inquire about it or lack sufficient influence with the Major. Felizmente, the influence threshold required for this check is notably lower than that needed to recruit the Major. Por isso, it’s quite rare for the Major to refuse to provide the evidence unless your influence performance is exceptionally poor.

#5. Secret correspondence between Corazon Santiago and Col. Faucheux

Upon defeating the Colonel and his troops at Fort Brigand, venture to Colonel Faucheux’s office, where you can inspect his desk. Successfully passing a Leadership check during this examination will grant you the evidence.

Keep in mind that failing to examine the Colonel’s desk or lacking adequate Leadership skills can result in missing this piece of evidence.

#6. Contract for the concession of diamond mining rights

After defeating Corazon Santiago at Ernie Island, you can talk to her and get her to reveal “the truth.”

You have two chances to get something from her so it is possible to get money from her and also the evidence. First with “You are involved in all this” and later with “Start talking. Agora!” (but it needs to be done in that order). Once you choose “Leave this country” the conversation will end.

Normally when you choose “You are involved in all this” your options are:

1. Dinheiro (ganho $30,000)

2. Informação (gain intel for Wetlands H16 and Fort Brigand K16)

3. You will answer in court (requires a Leadership check. It’s not clear what you get from this choice)

Em raras ocasiões, você pode conseguir “the truth” as an option (which gives you the evidence). But most of the time, you can only get “the truth” after you select “Start talking. Agora!” which is an option that shows up later (and replaces the opportunity to say “You are involved in all this”).

In order to have “Start talking. Agora!” as an option, you need to satisfy one of three conditions:

#1. Already defeated Colonel Faucheux AND have someone with the Scoundrel trait or high Wisdom

You will first have the option to say “Faucheux is dead.” After that you can say “The news didn’t mention gas.” If you have a Scoundrel or can pass a Wisdom check, you will then have the option to select “Start talking. Agora!”

If you have not defeated the Colonel yet, the dialogue option is simply “Faucheux is next” which is not sufficient to get the evidence.

#2. Already defeated the Major AND gotten the Major’s mercenary contract AND have someone with the Negotiator trait or high Wisdom

You will first have the option to say “Is this your signature on this contract?” After that you can say “We never mentioned the Major.” If you have a Negotiator or can pass a Wisdom check, you will then have the option to select “Start talking. Agora!”

If you have not defeated the Major yet, the dialogue option is simply “What about the Major?” which is not sufficient to get the evidence.

#3. Have someone with the Psycho trait

You will first have the option to say “This is not about the money.” After that you can say “You are not talking your way out of this.” If you have a Psycho, you will then have the option to select “Start talking. Agora!”

A. NOT ENOUGH EVIDENCE TO EXPOSE CORAZON SANTIAGO

Required conditions:

• Have between 0 para 3 peças de evidência (fora do 6 possível).

B. EXPOSED CORAZON SANTIAGO IN COURT

Required conditions:

• Have exactly 4 peças de evidência.

This is the minimum threshold to clear your name and unlock the “Proven Innocent” conquista.

C. DESTROYED CORAZON SANTIAGO IN COURT

Required conditions:

• Ter 5 ou 6 peças de evidência.

Once you have enough evidence, the Conspiracy? quest will be updated with “Resultado: Enough evidence gathered for a strong case against Corazon Santiago.”
