[edit] Changes

The Merc Compound was called Merc Haven until November 2008. 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.

[edit] Trivia

  • In the pre-alpha build shown at the Zerg reveal in March 2008, the little hologram on top of the Merc Haven will do the jumping animation that Night Elves in World of WarCraft do when idle.
