some mod questions from a newbie

[Dakaar]

Thanks for the fast answers Turin ) I was affraid what most answers would be from my reading though.

The mercenaries possibilities sound workable though, if i just changed other units as appropriate so that they are all unique to them if/where needed.

I looked on a util that displayed units in game, displays 1100 units including special heros, but none of the mercenary commanders are listed there, i think it was just a listing of all recruitable/summoned units. Is there anywhere to get a listing with the unit numbers for the unique mercenary troops and commanders?
