seriously, I am at war with the Northern Empire and I was winning, and even convinced most of their clans to join my side. but then they started fielding large armies with decent tier troops and started taking back their settlements. I was wondering why they were able to push me back even after I weakened them, so I took a look on the Encyclopedia...and they have SEVEN mercenaries!?! they only have 3 clans in their kingdom, so they have more then double the amount of mercenaries than clans! there needs to be some kind of limit on how many mercenaries a kingdom can have. make it a Policy, I don't care! but no kingdom- especially one with next to no fiefs or clans should be fielding a 1000+ army made up of mostly mercenaries!
