Strengths/Weaknesses

Iggy is someone you'll definitely want to recruit. His starting attributes are higher than many of the low- and mid-priced mercs that you can spend money to hire. He's also extremely skilled with firearms, thanks to high dexterity/marksmanship and trait bonuses using SMGs at an expert level and assault rifles.

What's more, Iggy's starting stealth rating is also very high. He doesn't have much going for him in the way of secondary skills but, again, he has a better starting baseline to work with than most of the for-hire mercs.

Tactics

Iggy can fill a variety of roles. Starting out, he's probably best suited to link up with your covert ops mercs. Give him a silenced submachine gun and let him dominate in any front-line advance.

He gets the added benefit of taking less damage in melee combat thanks to the tough trait, meaning that when enemy melee fighters rush your squad, Iggy will be able to absorb that much more damage while the incoming threats are rooted out.

Long-Term Play

The great thing about Iggy is that you can really tailor him to what your needs are. If you need a capable shooter who's good at staying out of sight, just continue to boost dexterity/marksmanship and stealth.

If you need someone more skilled at medical, mechanical, or explosives checks, just put your points into the appropriate skill. Iggy's attributes are high enough starting out that you can effectively leave them alone if you really want to, though the basic truth continues to hold that you can never go wrong in this game with a higher dexterity rating.
