Yeah, posted before something about the possibility of that. But didnt tried. A friend of mine just said he got a warning because of that.

Well this issue is not exactly clear. Admin said that merc techs will in fact increase the 1/1 by 10% each. So an LG+1 should have 1.8 merc / super.
Now its not working like that.
If a commander can only put you to 1*merc tech/1 than the bug is that you cannot buy yourself that much.
If your commander can give even more, than the bug is that...
So lets wait:)

Is that a bug? I'm not sure.. it was written, that you can
have more with tech levels, just cant
buy more than 1:1.

Then how you can have more if not buy? Given by commander.

Well, i think it will be still more difficult to build your strike only from mercs, even if this "bug" remains.
Large players dont "exploit" that. If they would, there would not be so many attack mercs available at the market.
Its more complicated to work it out.
On the other side, it is a good trading possibility.
My point is this "bug" may remain, it is not giving so much advantage anymore.

"no resources" means "you cant buy, maybe not because of the resources, but something's wrong"
The same problem is somewhere else too. Wrong error message sometimes.

I do believe this message is displayed if you do not have enough supers of the appropriate type.

Same here, I am unable to buy attack mercs altho I have the naq and space for them.
Edit: Just read the fine print:
ADDITIONALLY - each Merc (attack or defence) is paired with a 'super soldier' (attack or defence). This means that you can only have as many attack/def Mercs as you have supers of that type.
Why was there no Command Center notification about this update? Or did we just miss it all? Do we now all have to calculate on our own how many mercs we can have?
