Mercs

How often are Mercs available to buy?

I havent bought an attack mercenary for months and months.

I like your name :-D

Mercs are generated every turn BUT you'll have a hard time getting them as so many people are out to buy them. Mercs that are sold by other players also become available. It's a question of being quick. Otherwise, train Supers or Standard Def/Att Military.

(OR - GO TO THE MARKET AND ENQUIRE ABOUT BUYING SOME :wink: )

They ARE generated every turn - but as has been said - you need to be quick - as in lightning quick!
