If you hire foreign naval mercenaries, they are given the exile flag when a war starts.
The wiki says (my emphasis), "[h]ired mercenary armies outside of a country's territory will begin in a state of exile and must be moved to controlled territory before they can used in battle."
Unfortunately, moving naval mercenaries to one of your ports does not remove the exile flag. You cannot move them to their pirate base in foreign territory (unless maybe you negotiate access). How can I remove it?
If it cannot be removed at that point, is there some other procedure that will allow me to use foreign naval mercenaries?
I am playing as tutorial Rome in 2.0.2.
