Mercenaries have no sight, which means you should keep them selected if your not in the mood to search for them. This also means that they can track down an enemy no matter what. If you send them to attack a building, when they get to it, you can see a faded image of the building. By the way, they will attack if not controlled by player one.

I think that if they belong to P1, they only attack if there is another unit with them..or something like that.

The zero LoS for mercenaries isn't a bug of course - the 2 LoS for Mace ones is a bug however - that's what I meant. They simply forgot to make an exception for the mercenaries. Just like they forgot to disable the free tribute for Palmy in full tech tree games and so on.

Maybe the Mercenary LOS bug isnt realy a bug because it may be like a someone hired for work in your civ. So it will stay loyal if it has other units near it but it does it own thing when not with company from the more loyal people. Correct me if im wrong.
