Do mercenaries count as faction units, and does faction-specific wording apply to them?
The publisher ruled on the mercenary wording directly, and replies agree on the distance rule.

Yes. A faction unit is any unit controlled by a faction, so mercenaries and enemy units count when a rule says faction units, such as counting through units for distance. A rule that names one specific faction, such as a Brawnen mark, does not reach mercenaries, because they belong to no faction.
