/combat/mercenaries
The four mercenaries
Pike: 150 health, attack 4, range 2, pause 0.65 s, defense 1
Pike: 150 health, attack 4, range 2, pause 0.65 s, defense 1
Bow: 150 health, attack 8, range 8, pause 1 s, defense 1

- They fight as one squad and take one of the battle's squad places.
- Each adds the defense power of its armor and of its weapon while they are paid: 8 for the squad, 16 and 24 after the equipment upgrades.
- Enemies have defense 0, so each mercenary hit deals its attack in full, unless a Door Zombie's door stops it: 4 with a pike, 8 with a bow with their starting equipment.
