MANOR LORDS · QUICK ANSWER

Hire mercenaries in Manor Lords

Open the Army panel, choose an available mercenary company and check its monthly Treasury cost before hiring in Manor Lords.

The short answer

Hire mercenaries from an offer currently shown in the Army panel. Their company cost is paid from Treasury each month, and the unit rallies when hired.

Do this in your settlement

Hire mercenaries: what to do next

  1. Open the Army panel and inspect the mercenary companies currently offered.
  2. Compare the chosen company’s monthly Treasury cost with your balance and any Royal Tax or Settlers Camp money you need to keep.
  3. Hire only the company you can fund; confirm its troops appear in the Army panel and keep Treasury for later months.

Why this happens

Mercenary offers and prices belong in the Army panel, while their pay comes from Treasury. Buying more goods or raising Regional Wealth alone will not fund a company. A contract continues to cost Treasury in later months, so compare the offer with the money you need for tax and settlement.

How to know it worked

The hired company appears in your Army panel and its monthly payment can be covered by the Treasury you kept.

Why is the company I want not available?

Use the offers currently shown in your Army panel. If the company is missing, plan around an available offer and check again later; do not budget an unavailable company as hired.
