How much power do mercs add

Strike Action: This is obtained from taking your weapon strength for each weapon manned by a super unit, x 10. Then adding to that all weapon strengths manned by normal units x 5. Then this total is multiplied by each of your Siege Technology upgrades, and by your race bonus (25% for Tauri) if applicable.


How much do mercs give? also x 5? or less? if less, how much less?

thanks for your help

Best of my knowlege they are the same as a regular unit. All you got to do is check your power and then buy a merc and arm him to see the difference.

Actually, I believe they have the same death rate.
---------------------------
SS have double the power, and half the death rate of normal units.

Aye, reason I buy them. :)
