Biff

Biff Apscott is recruitable mercenary in the Jagged Alliance series. He is recruitable from A.I.M. in Jagged Alliance and Deadly Games, and is co-founder and hirable from M.E.R.C. in Jagged Alliance 2.

Biography

Jagged Alliance

"A reluctant and nervous mercenary, Biff Apscott is still trying to overcome the disturbing flashbacks of a bad birth and a spiteful mother. With only one short assignment under his belt, he requires patience, understanding and decaffeinated coffee." - A.I.M. Dossier

Deadly Games

"A reluctant and nervous mercenary, Biff Apscott is still trying to overcome the disturbing flashbacks of a bad birth and a spiteful mother. Uncomfortable with death, Biff has just completed an advanced nursing course and is eager to apply his new-found knowledge." - A.I.M. Dossier

Jagged Alliance 2

"Biff Apscott was a truly unique man among mercenary men. He will be greatly missed for his youthful enthusiasm and the way he reminded everyone of just how brave they were. Although somewhat hard to believe, we have been made aware that he has opened up his own mercenary organization in a somewhat pitiful attempt to compete with A.I.M. It's probably not necessary to elaborate on just how worried we are." - Alumni Gallery

"We can't even begin to list the number of battles Biff Apscott has witnessed. His experience, dedication and willingness to part with his retirement fund has made this agency what it is today. In a private moment between warriors, Col. Leon Roachburn once said Biff is "a fearless leader of men. A man without equal."" - M.E.R.C. Dossier

Additional Bio

  • Not quite as brave as one might perhaps expect.
  • Knowing Leon and the company he kept, his "attributed" quote in Biff's M.E.R.C. dossier likely has him rolling in his grave.

Notes

  • Surprisingly, isn't hated by anyone in Jagged Alliance or Deadly Games. They seem to have come around by the second game, though. Although it is most of the new rosters who are particulary resentful towards him and how someone like him can be allowed into A.I.M. His own company M.E.R.C. also has very little trust in him who accuses him with nepotism due to Flo.
  • The sheer amount of different ways this man can scream "Oh my God!" in a terrified manner is nothing short of impressive.
  • Although he is most certainly one of the worst mercs in the game, he can still be fun to bring along for his cowardly remarks.
  • His appearance is very much like Butthead from Beavis and Butthead cartoon series. His personality isn't much better, either.
  • Is in a romantic relationship with Flo, so pairing him with her does wonders for both, making it one of the very few tasks he is good at.
