the untrained mercs is just another way to transfer money you cant train them they dont even fight in your army as far as the alliance email if your not the one who made the alliance you have to do it one by one.

Just ignore Untrained mercs, they have no notable purpose.

and only the alliance leader and second can message the alliance as a whole.

UM arent placed with % restrictions so a commander can pass as mny down to a officer as he/she wants. keep in mind um sold lose 50% of their value- not the best way to transfer naq

they buy for 1500 and sell for 900, you lose 2/5 of the value.

Actualy mercs are very useful

They save some supers, by acting as meat sheilds.

Have a lot of them when massing, and you'll be loosing the mercs as well, not just supers.

Like I said, they're useful meat sheilds. And The ones that die....... I dont have to pay :D

I thought untrained mercs act as miners, but about 1/3 as productive :?

He said "UM", that is Untrained Mercs, he never said mercs were useless.
