Hector Stark the Captain frustration

[ioticus]

The decription claims he's the leader of a mercenary band yet he comes with no units?! Also, in my current PBEM game, I can't add any Jotun units to his command despite the fact that his portrait is highlighted when I select a unit. Is my game bugged? I paid gold for this crap

[Duncanish]

He does come with units. Most likely, someone else bought him, had the unit die off, then didn't re-hire when his contract was up. And you can't give or take troops to/from mercenaries, nor can you take their magic items, You can take their gems, and even give them items, but you won't be able to take them back.

He was probably bought earlier and he was the only one that survived (happens from time to time).

You can't add any units to a Mercenary Commander.

[ioticus]

Understood, but is there a way to tell how many units he comes with before you buy it? I know that the game normally tells you how many units are in the mercenary group but does it tell you if the unit is depleted/reduced? I can't remember if it said there were no units left or not.

It says "commands no men".

Right click on the mercenary leader name, in mercenary hiring menu.
It says the cost and how many men he commands.
