Supers of course, Superunits are always stronger, mercs are just sidekicks when you don,t have enought units or need cheap labor

Search!
we have had so many extensive trials done on this, with comparisons of efficiancy over time etc. you would have to find at least one...
Super Soldiers are far better than mercs, in both short term power, and in long term expense...
I believe that once weapon costs were factored in it looked like this:
Super Soldier: 200% more effective, and only 150% more expensive than merc.

Well mercs are their own kind of supers, sometimes you need more than you have to make war so you buy em'

But they get killed quicker, less stronger, but still, very useful when short on trainees

Merc Upgrade costs big unless you have little unit count lol, and ever there, Supers are always chosen

When I get to the Merc Market it's dry anyway lol
EDIT : yeah, didn't thought of language

well i love my 105 % merc total.. they make nice meat shields.... every two dead mercs is a ´super that lives.
and even if you cant sue the search button. why didnot you simpel try it out. its not that hard to buy a merc, and a weapon,. and notice the difference and doing the same with an super soldier. some peopel can even do it without calculator

Ooohhh... the old 'Learn by experiance'
Pffft. Flavar, that died the instant TLC and Discovery hit cable.
I think i can credit them and PBS with the downfall of 'learn-by-doing'
Onwards to foundation!
Meh, if the informations out there, no reason not to at least skim it.
