👥 MERCENARY SYSTEM
Join any siege without your clan registering!

- ✅ Register from siege UI - browse clans, apply with one click
- ✅ Multi-castle queue - register for multiple sieges per week

- Allied clans cannot register as defenders! Must join as individual mercs
- Defender cap: attacker count + 20 (prevents zerg stacking)
- Mercs cannot capture castle & cannot be kicked mid-siege
Merc communication:
@clan chat → your REAL clan |$alliance chat → merc clan's alliance`` message→ Leader broadcasts on-screen text to all mercs
