good day,
i am an avid fan of coc. . in many times in the game my storage were always full. . but since i have no available builder i cant help watching it get looted specially the gold. .
so i come to thinking. what if i can use my gold to hire troops. that is where the mercenary baracks/camp comes in.

ok now so the camp should be available starting th6.. bec. that would be the most time youll had your storage full lying around. the concept is this. . the merc camp doesnt level or doesnt need upgrades. it is synced with you TH. . at TH6 you can only choose from 2types of merc troops like archer and barb. . as your TH level up so as the number of choices you can hire at the MERC camp. . that concludes the camp concept with regards to leveling or upgrade. .

now.. since you hire mercenaries. . they would probably prefer gold like real mercs does. . in that way if you have more gold and you need elixir. . you can use the mercs for looting of elixirs . . so you can save your elixirs. . its like converting your gold to elixir but in a much difficult way. . and when your mercs dies the defending village will get gold in their tomb instead of elixirs. .

in clan wars mercs shouldnt be allowed to participate bec. they are not your village people. you only hire them.. besides mercs dont really participate to war. but they can help a lot in preparing you to war. .

as for the type of troops you can hire. im still trying to think cool char. but for starters. .i would like to put these two:
1. Spartans =the counterpart of barbarian. a much stronger and durable melee warrior.
2.Amazons=the counterpart of archer. . a much faster and agile range warrior.

im still thinking though. . hope you like my concept please feel free to ask questions.. hoping for your feedback guys. .
