i meant to say as playing the consortiums

They have mercenary assualt squads which are good against the rebel b2b tanks. But i cant seem to figure out how to upgrade them so they can have the disruptor and allow you to switch to that weapon. TRYING HARD TO BEAT MY FRIEND BEFORE THE WHOLE GALAXY IS LOST!

You do black market corruption on a planet and buy the upgrade.

You don't buy it from the barracks.. you buy the upgrade from  the black market, and then all of your assault squads are automatically given disruptors in place of their blasters. Same goes for any you make afterwards.

See pages 4 to 7 in your Forces of Corruption manual.  If for some reason you can't find your manual, you can download a pdf version of it here.

To access the Black Market, send Tyber Zann, Urai Fen or Silri to the "Buy" slot at a Black Market planet to purchase new technology.  The Black Market Window will appear with an assortment of technology available to purchase.  You will also see technology that is not yet available or has already been purchased.

Then you're probably dragging Bossk or IG-88. They can't buy.

If you're looking in the build bar, that's not how it works.

In the main game, you get the Black Market tech through corrupting enemy planets, you don't build them on your own. You need to spread the corruption stuff, then you can buy the technology via heroes IIRC.

I don't think all black market technologies can be purchased from one planet, perhaps try setting one up on another planet (e.g. if your first is on an Empire planet then set the next one up on a Rebel planet)?

More likely disruptors has a prereq to purchase.
