Hold on a minute... you mean you can retrain those factional-unit mercs in MICs? O.O
Overrated: Ridanz. The Sweboz cavalry are really poor, compared to the similarly equipped Leuce Epos. Only 2 javelins as opposed to the Leuce Epos' 6, and with practically identical stats, it means they die fast for not as much value-addedness.
Belgae Milnaht. They simply don't cut it. They die faster than similar-level infantry from mainland gaul or even similarly half-naked Germans, and their unit size of 160, in a region swarming with 240 and comparable 200-man battalions, simply doesn't cut the cake except that they fill up a small recruitment gap, and even then not by much.
Underrated: Iaosatae, for sure. 'nuff said.
Appea Gaedotos: Cheap, with very great holding power, decent armour, reasonable upkeep, and instantly available once you conquer the Rhaetic provinces. Compared to the agony of creation you have to go through to get Mori Gaesum in just one province, they are much more worth the price.
