Bug (?) - Mercenary hoplite manpower upkeep

Post by undeniable_sausage »

I'm playing as Syracuse. After recruiting a Mercenary Hoplite unit manpower upkeep drops by -2 but on the unit card it says there shouldn't be any manpower upkeep cost.

By default, each faction gets a flat upkeep reduction for 10 of their units. Most likely, your Mercenary Hoplite replaced an unit that costs less money, but has a manpower cost among that 10, causing your manpower expenditure to increase.

That's not obvious to understand why and Soar explanation is most probably the right one indeed.
