Hey guys, so me and a bud just started playing MERCS, and I want to know what everyones favourite faction is. So far I've tried both Kem'Var and Texico, and I find Texico to be a blast, and Kem'Var not so much. Still wanting to know who to try next, leaning towards either an FCC group or USCR

Kemvar for me followed by Sefadu. I'm interested in Kezai Waza next (who doesn't like power armor and tac nukes?) There's a steep learning curve with FCC if you start pulling in guys from other factions. USCR is great at board control (they also have the best looking heavy in the game) and seem pretty forgiving if you're still new to the game..

i just played a game as FCC 9 last night, didn't bring in any black ops and it was still a blast. think i might be choosing them as my first purchase, after i try USCR

Their Boomer is pretty scary.
