If their leader isn't around, they shouldn't be there either. And even if he is, they shouldn't be able to attack without his say so/their getting attacked first.

But it makes perfect sense. They are just hired thugs guarding the lands of their boss.

Gameplay-wise such feature is needed because at this moment alt-merc leaders are needed to defend base if there's a chance that unwanted visitors might arrive.

Ulrek:
What everyone seems to forget is that if you could have base guards like militia, they would also be limited in numbers.

If you allowed 5 or so guards for a smaller base, and 10-15 guards for a bigger base, i cant really see a problem with this, since people aren't just stock piling 50 slaves or mercs by leaving them there, they're adding them just like they do to protect their towns, you -can- already have NPC's as part of your base, and also it would allow for better scripting, and not just buying a horde of mercs and telling them to kill everyone, you could actually tell them to guard the cars or storage areas of the base, and only attack people who get too close to them as a non-member.

It's been suggested.  I don't see the problem.  People make these "traps" in encounters and tents already anyways.

Thier Mercs. Their payed to do What their Payed to do. We tell them to stand all the time and guard and how to guard it. They should be alright with it (maybe a bit grumpy) Long as their payed. Its not like soldiers are always behind a leader in armys. If the leader tells him to sit and guard a place. They should do that right? It'd be wierd if everyone had to stay next to the General the whole time. They spread out and... sometimes sit and guard.
