A Camo Kit or Camo-U-Flage (Camouflage Kit in Jagged Alliance and Facepaint in Jagged Alliance: Online) is an equipment that appears in the Jagged Alliance series.
Description[]
"A full palette of long-lasting, non-running, non-cracking, facial paint and applicators. Set includes: woodland, jungle and grassland motifs along with appropriate decal accessories and cold cream." - Jagged Alliance
"The Military Camo Compact includes: olive drab, olive green, tan and white cream-based facial paint, a mirror, and a manual on the proper use and care of your camo compact." - Jagged Alliance 2
Usage[]
In both original games, the kit is applied by picking up the kit on the cursor, then clicking it on the merc's silhouette (JA1) or sculpture (JA2).
When applied, the kit camouflages the mercenaries, making them more difficult to see. After application, a percentage counter will appear over (JA1) or near (JA2) the mercenary's silhouette/sculpture - this is how much your merc's visibility to the enemy is being affected by the camouflage. This percentage decreases over time, and decreases faster if the merc spends time swimming or running.
Applying 100% camoflage to a merc consumes around 50% of the kit.
In Jagged Alliance 2, the Camo Kits are stackable - two fit a small inventory cell, while four can be stacked in the large inventory cell.
Facepaint (Jagged Alliance: Online)[]
This variant is labeled as Head protection and provides the following bonuses for a merc using it:
- Critical Hit Cover 8%
- Critical Hit Bonus 11%
- Interrupt Bonus 4
- Front protection 64
- Woodlands 5
It requires Merc Level 25 and Dexterity 26 to be used.
Locations[]
Jagged Alliance 2[]
- Random sectors/enemies. It appears quite commonly inside military bases.
- Can be bought randomly from traders.
- Bobby Ray's - those are always in stock, usually in mint condition.
Notes[]
- The item is called a "Camo-U-Flage" Kit in Jagged Alliance.
- The version 1.13 of Jagged Alliance 2 introduces different variations of the camouflage kit, including woodland (the standard), desert and urban camos.
- Kyle "Shadow" Simmons can't benefit from Camo Kits himself, his own trait maintains him camouflaged.
Tips & Tricks[]
- The Camo Kit is best used during night attacks rather than during the day, for it makes mercs even more difficult to spot. This trick works in any area in the game, even in townships and bases.
