Recently, I added this card...when it becomes playable the second time in AGE IV, do mercenary costs become even cheaper, or should this card not played twice?
Thanks and peace, Kil

erm, it is allowed again? and how? in Age IV? I assume you actually mean after going imperial to Age V. But it shouldn't be available again as it is a unit stat change (cost of mercs...), not a unit card (which is what going imperial allows you to redo)

Yeah, right...AGE V, but...it does :-) Use it in anything prior to V and then when you hit five, it's there again! British...

but all imperial units best mercs cost effectively and are more pop efficient...

As far as I remember, this card sets the price from 2000 to 1600. So, if played a second time, it would set from 1600... to 1600 again. No effect.
ah, check again. Card sets all 2000 price mercs to 1500, all 1000 price mercs to 750. There are also some others that get changed. I think it basically changes them all down 25%, but does not use a percentage but a fixed figure. To bad it didn't use a percentage, then using it again might be effective.
Cyclohexane - if you read this, your quick reference shows this as a one time playable card only...
