Merc compound/Development

The merc compound was once called the merc haven. The merc haven used to train reapers. Training reapers worked similarly to hiring units from mercenary camps in WarCraft III. There was a maximum number of units "in stock" at any one time with that number slowly regenerating over time. Reapers were inexpensive with a build time of one or two seconds. Four reapers could be bought from a single merc haven in quick succession with another reaper becoming ready to "hire" every thirty seconds.

It unlocked reapers and upgraded s. It was removed by the beta.

In November 2008 the merc haven was removed, and the model repurposed for a bar in the StarCraft II campaign. It returned as of April 2009. Beta files list it as the "mercenary port".
