Introduction
------------

This guide will focus on providing you with info on the entire arsenal
that is at your disposal in Mercenaries for the PS2. Mercenaries
gives the player access to many different weapons and vehicles and allows
the player to freely roam around and do what he/she sees fit. Being able to 
go about missions etc. and doing them in many different ways grants a free 
non-linear environment to the player. The game is great, and it has already
been recognized as a solid, fun game.

I. FAQ
------

1. Q - How do I go about getting new weapons?

   A - There are various ways to acquire new weaponry, some examples
       include killing or incapacitating a soldier wielding a weapon or
       calling in a supply drop from the Merchant of Menace etc.

2. Q - How do I go about getting a vehicle?

   A - Roam around until you locate one, then hijack it at will. You
       may also purchase certain vehicles from the Merchant of Menace
       website.

3. Q - Can I kill any soldier/civilian in this game.

   A - Yes.

4. Q - What penalties are there for killing the different soldiers?

   A - When you kill a soldier your relation to the soldiers faction is
       decreased. A very low faction bar results in a hostile relation to
       that faction.

5. Q - What is Collateral Damage?

   A - Collateral Damage is when civilians die due to the crossfires
       of a battle when the civilian was not an intended target.

6. Q - How many weapons can I hold at one time?

   A - You can possess two main weapons at any given time which are holstered
       on your back, not counting grenades and various support items.

7. Q - Can I have both weapons holstered and then use my fists?
 
   A - No you cannot, although both weapons will be holstered when you choose
       to use a support item.

8. Q - Can I recruit soldiers and create my own faction?

   A - No, but you can get in a vehicle and honk the horn (O button) and nearby
       friendly soldiers will get in the vehicle as long there are open seats.

9. Q - Can I kill myself?

   A - Yes, there are many ways to, but I do not see any viable reason for this
       besides wanting to retry a mission or respawning after getting stuck
       in a glitch.

10. Q - Can I save vehicles in a type of garage?

    A - As far as I know, No.

11. Q - Can I store acquired weapons in some sort of showroom for future use?

    A - No, although I see no need for this when there is the convenient
        Merchant of Menace at our fingertips.

12. Q - What is this Merchant of Menace?

    A - The Merchant of Menace is the Black Market in the game
        run by the Russian Mafia. You can order in vehicles, supplies, and air
        strikes to be delivered to your current location. Access the shop 
        through your PDA or by pressing the right directional button.

13. Q - If I unwillingly kill a soldier, does it count as a negative to the
        faction the soldier represents?

    A - As long as a soldier dies because of your direct fire, or area of 
        effect damage caused by your weapons it will count as a negative
        to the respective faction. There are some exceptions.

14. Q - Are there explosive barrels?

    A - Yes, there are yellow barrels scattered across the map. Shoot at
        it to cause incendiary damage to the surrounding area damaging
        nearby vehicles and infantry. There are also bigger yellow
        containers which are flammable just the same.

15. Q - Can I approach my objective covertly?

    A - Yes, two weapons allow you to sneak around with power which
        are the Covert SMG and Sniper Rifle and you can also disguise
        yourself as part of another faction by commandeering one of 
        the respective factions vehicles.

16. Q - Can I mix and match passengers?

    A - Yes, you can have passengers of different factions in your vehicle
        at once.

17. Q - What is Action Hijacking?

    A - Action Hijacking is when you hijack certain vehicles thats already 
        being driven/piloted and are ready for combat such as tanks and
        helicopters. Your mercenary will perform a quick attack maneuver
        to rid the vehicle of its driver and then take control. These
        certain vehicles are usually helicopters, tanks, etc. You cannot
        action hijack a vehicle until you finish off any secondary gunners 
        that may be in the vehicle. To action hijack a helicopter, it must
        be low enough to the point where you see it kicking up dust.

18. Q - How can I make bailing out of choppers safer.
 
    A - Bailing is not such a good choice in this game since we don't have a
        parachute. When you bail from really high up, you will probably die 
        when you hit the ground and if you bail and survive the fall, it is 
        very likely the chopper will fall on or near you killing you anyway. 
        What seems to work better is to just stay in the chopper and slam it 
        into the ground and there will be a chance that your merc will not get 
        damaged much if at all.

19. Q - How can I get my question in the FAQ section?

    A - As long your question is connected to information in this guide, 
        I will add it in here. Check the "Contact Information" section on 
        how to contact me. No joke questions please.

II. Binoculars
--------------

The binoculars in this game is very useful during certain situations and
greatly helps a player who likes to do things covertly. There are also some 
missions that rely heavily on its usefulness. Access your binoculars by 
pressing down on the R3 Analog Stick.

 ____
/Tips\
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- You can scope out a situation before you approach it. Find out what kind
  of resistance there will be, its good to go in prepared.

- You can use the binoculars to get an ID on your target. When you examine
  a person or vehicle, your binoculars will identify the target on the scope.
  (This also works against the cards you have to capture).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

III. Weapons
------------

Throughout the game you will be carrying around your personal choice of
weaponry while on foot. You can wield two main weapons, have up to 12
grenades in all (6 Fragmentation grenades, 6 Stun Grenades) and have a
menu of support items you allocate through various places such as the
Merchant of Menace. C4 explosives are one of the main support items you
have access to during much of the game. Choose your gear carefully, it may
mean a life or death situation on the battlefield.

  of Menace shop.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

       (Insight on extra tips for the AM Sniper provided by J H)
     - (Tip submitted by OveractiveAnima)
       If you try sniping choppers from far enough away with the AM rifle 
       the first shot will hit it and it will turn toward you, but it won't 
       attack, at least not for a while, so then you can get in a good shot 
       and take out the pilot. Granted the chopper will be slightly damaged 
       from the shot and the fall, but it still flies.

       so useful in many situations. 
     - Crouching helps reduce the rockets swervy motions somewhat. 
     - Not as effective against heavy armor.

V. Vehicles
-----------

There are many vehicles in Mercenaries ranging from civilian automobiles
to heavy assault helicopters. You can hijack any vehicle and aircraft
in this game excluding airplanes. Each vehicle is unique in some way,
whether it be because of its shape, armor, weapons etc. All vehicles are
at your disposal whenever you want as long as you can find them. The
Merchant of Menace shop in the game provides you with access to certain
vehicles (29 vehicles to be exact) whenever you want as long you are near 
an open, flat surface and have enough funds.
 _____
/Notes\
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
- If you have information on the location of a vehicle, feel free
  to contact me so I can include it in the guide crediting you.

- You will see numerical information within arrow brackets <>
  This is the ammunition capacity for the respective weapon on the
  vehicle. A plain number (example: 300) usually means that weapon
  has continuous fire. A number separated by a forward slash
  means that weapon has a clip size and a total round capacity 
  (example: 10/30 = Clip Size/Total Capacity).

- When you bring a vehicle to the Mafia Chop Shop, the reward you get
  depends on the condition of the vehicle. I will be adding the maximum
  reward only to the chop shop section, and you get the maximum amount
  if the vehicle is in perfect shape. Also the chop shop does not accept 
  aircraft and non-mobile vehicles (artillery etc.), and they do not give a 
  reward for bringing them Russian Mafia vehicles, so I will not be adding a 
  chop shop section for those.

- Southern Province = 1st map
  Northern Province = 2nd map
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
 ____
/Tips\
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Getting in a vehicle and waiting a certain amount of time will
  disguise you as part of the faction the vehicle represents,
  allowing you to evade them without sparking trouble. Acting
  suspiciously like honking your horn or committing hostile actions
  will remove the disguise. Officers of factions can also see through 
  your disguise, they are indicated by special blinking red icons.
  Also, Officers always have a faction icon above their head even
  if you have faction icons turned off.

- For aircraft, an easy way to get one down from the air for use is
  to either snipe the pilot with the anti-material sniper or
  shoot the pilot with another chopper, preferably a light chopper
  for easier mobility.

- Helicopters in the game come with a winch which can be used to pick
  up things in the game like ammo crates, vehicles etc. To release the 
  winch for use, press the down directional button and then descend 
  towards your target and the magnetic hold of the winch will grab it. 
  To release anything on the winch, press the down directional button. 
  To retract the winch back into the helicopter, press the up directional 
  button when there is nothing on it.

- (Tip submitted by Bobjoe119900)
  To figure out if something damages something else, just fire at it. 
  If the target blinks, you have caused damage. If the target does not 
  blink, then no damage has been done. For example, I fire an 
  Anti-Material sniper round at a Sungri Scout. It blinks, so I know I 
  have done damage. But when I fire at a tank, it does not blink, 
  therefore I know I have not caused damage.

       make sure to get two friendlies to man the miniguns to maximize 
       effeciency.

                               A LHX squadron will then approach the outpost 
                               overhead to battle the NK presence.
                             - These can be found in random battles against 
                               NK or the Chinese. One location is at the 
                               intersection of Sinuiju Farms during a battle
                               that erupts as you progress later in the game.
                             - During the mission "106 miles to Sinuiju",
                               after you meet up with the second contact and

                               vehicle in the game
         - Northern Province - These are also patrolling the roads in the North
                               but the NK have upgraded to more powerful

-----------------
Info - This is a generic tank used by the NK. Other modern tanks usually
       outclass it therefore limiting its effectiveness. This tank is still
       very powerful if left alone. Limited "dip" angle causes it to have
       extra blind spots.

Tips - If you see one of these lying around and you need the fire power,
       don't hesitate to jump in. There are better tanks though, but you
       don't run into a "which tank should i choose?" situation alot.

VIII. Miscellaneous Weapons
---------------------------

The weapons in this section didn't fit really well with the other sections
and needed one of its own.

----------( 1. )-----------

---------------------------
Info - This is a cool MG in that it fires explosive grenades good for
       suppressing approaching enemy infantry. Usually found around sandbags.

Tips - Out of all 3 sandbag weapons, this one is the most useful against
       infantry.

Ammo Capacity - N/A

Useful Against - Infantry/Light Armor

---------( 2. )----------
--( Heavy Machine Gun )--

Info - You will also find alot of these stationed behind sandbags. They will be
       set up for support fire usually against possible enemy assault routes.

Tips - Good stopping power against infantry.
     - If you are running low on firepower, don't hesitate to use one if you 
       see the enemy approaching.

Ammo Capacity - 500

Useful Against: Infantry/Light Armor

---------( 3. )---------
--( Recoilless Rifle )--
------------------------
Info - These are also found behind sandbags. These sport the longest barrel out
       of all 3 stationary sandbag weapons for better accuracy. These shoot
       powerful anti-armor rounds which explode on impact.

       infantry, be careful of nearby friendlies.

Ammo Capacity - 1/40
