Major, I don't believe you are understanding the full idea of these perks entirely. A mercenary unit with six Landholds would have a reputation of 100 with one particular House so would be in great standing with that House to the point they are getting Christmas cards hand-signed by the Archon / First Prince / Coordinator / Celestial Wisdom / Captain General. They would also be getting 360MM C-bills as income from their Landholds. On top of that, they would be getting these perks of (for example) a JumpShip, a company of Mechs, more generous contract terms, or some more MM of C-bills. There is no loss of monies to the unit for these perks, its the House in question saying to the unit: "thanks for going off and taking care of things for us so well for so long... use this for a bit to help you out".
Or are you understanding that and I am missing the point of your suggestions? Always possible... its relatively early and I have only had one Monster so far.
I think its a bit of both since we were discussing the non-territorial factions and their possible rewards then I went off tangent and suggested applying it to the general system.
