Only weapons from the same faction(which means no mithril), but this is a great idea! Right now hired units are almost useless against players because players can get enchanted weapons that can kill them very quickly. If you could give them enchanted weapons they would be much more balanced. Tower guards would not be able to be given weapons as they throw their spears and never retrieve them. The armor should also be replaceable, as it still breaks while the unit is wearing it. I made a suggestion regarding something like this a few months ago. So you're saying that a hired unit should have an armour and a weapon slot, where you could change the weapon/armour they're using, and that NPC armour/weapons should (at least in some cases) have durability too?

If a unit to which you gave custom equipment dies, you should get the equipment back, however.
