He is the mercenary captain of the city guards. So you can´t give him troops.

True... you can never move or take troops for mercenaries.

Turin, you're right. It's amercenary commander.

The whole thing is buggy, though: If you select an inf unit, all 3 commanders are and the province are shown as accepting it. Shouldn't the merc commander not be high-(down-?) lightened as he cannot accept troops from a player? This is at least missleading ...

Oooo jesus I feel stupid. I just figured out why I thought that. I had a indie commander that I was moving to that provence, and the time between game sessions, thought that commander made it there and he was it. I had stopped paying for mercs so didn't catch it.

And ya, when I went to give him troops, he was highlighted like he was a legit target.

But ya I feel stupid regardless.
