Annex said:I think people are looking for ways to nerf GotN, not make its construction more of an advantage.
My suggestion was intended to replace how GotN works now, not to be an addition to it. As it stands now, you can set your sliders to zero for a few turns and crank out loads and loads of mercenaries, having them serve as the mainstay of your military. It makes it especially easy to invade another continent: capture the first city and immediately recruit a stack of mercenaries to defend it against the initial wave of counterattacks.
If, by contrast, the GotN only produced one mercenary unit every 5? 8? 10? turns, it would serve only as a supplement to your main military force, not be the core of your military. That's what I was thinking. Maybe to balance it, you could have it go obsolete after a certain late-game tech was researched.
