Hiring murderes would be bad reputation for the legion which gets bad looks from ordinary frenchies already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frizbee 0 Posted January 23, 2002 The main problem with being a mercenary as I see it is its a crime in many countries. Unless you are doing bodyguard work.. or you are hired by the government...if you do any snatch and grab work, or assassination, or private army stuff, you get yourself a warrant for your arrest. Thus, becoming a mercenary in say.. Australia.. you wouldn't be able to work in Australia, New Zealand, America, Canada, Britain.. Germany and France would be risky... Russia you would be likely to be shot... There just isn't the freedom of the middle ages anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
