How to use

Step 1: Conquer a civs original capital OR eliminate the civ from game by capturing their final city.
Step 2: Build the required district or Merc company building in your cities.
Step 3: Research the tech needed for the unit.
Step 4: Train the unit in all cities with the Merc Building from step 2
Step 5: Conquer your enemies!

Note: The AI will also use this, so expect to see them training and using units of those they've conquered.

Historical Context

Throughout history conquering nations have adapted the vanquished into their own armies as mercenaries. During the wars of Alexander the great, his Macedonian armies included Greek hoplites, Romans used Gauls and other conquered "barbarians" as forced levies and mercenaries, and of course the English used and incorporated the welsh longbow and Scottish Highlanders into their regular fighting forces.

this should so be updated to include everything about the civ when you capture the capital so that you can add their add ons from other mods

Would you be able to make something like this for unique districts as well?

This is a brilliant mod, it would be great if you could update it to have all unique units for all civ's

when i start an era after acient i can build all mercbuildings, and in ancient i saw korea with the merc chariot archer

the barbarian spearmen is now the greekhoplite
and conflicts with warfare mod i think, cause it alters the units.sql(or xml?), unitvariation tries to display 2 skins at the same time on some units

A problem that is good to know Thanks. I use this mod actually and it's awesome. Really.
Unfortunetly not all units are inserted. Miss the hwacha unit at the moment. But when I conquer the next one i will miss another unit.
I would really appreciate if development of this mod continues.

It's a neat concept, but now I'm seeing city-states give quests to train mercenary units. Vatican City has asked me to train a Merc Varu, which could only happen if I took over India.

might need to just make the support for steel and thunder as a separate mod that requires it? its the simplest way at least.
