Juggs Teaches CK2 - Army Composition & Troop Types Well first of all, mercenaries are expensive, and you shouldn't be relying on them. Īlso, if you run out of money mercs turn against you while retinues just stop replenishing. They are expensive and should be a last resort. They cost a lot in upkeep while forming but once they're fully reinforced their upkeep drops to negligible amounts. Retinues are essentially long term investment mercenaries. Being already raised means their morale will be full while new levies won't. Once you've got a big enough retinue, you can use them tactically if you know a war is about to start by positioning them to fight freshly raised levies or siege holdings before levies can even be raised. You get to pick what sort of units you want, in addition to having a permanent standing army.
How are retinues better than having mercs or normal levies? Maybe i'm missing something, but I can't figure out why you'd use them instead of mercs or normal levies. Home Discussions Workshop Market Broadcasts.
