Trivia

 * Mercenaries are some of the only non-strain enemies that the player will encounter over the course of the game.
 * There is no Cryovat in game that dispenses Mercenary units. They can only be obtained in the following two locations:
 * Mission site 24 ("Fortuna") features 2 randomly selected merc classes in recoverable body bags. They are located in the room housing the hostage.
 * Any of the four Merc classes can be purchased in body bag form at "Glean's Cuts" in NeuroCity. Be aware that they cost ten times as much as their sell value.
