    Default Ireland, Scotland rebellion

    I am not sure whether or not this will happen but i heard you may choose a side when a rebellion occurs. Irish, Scottish. I was wondering, if what i heard was wwrong would it be possible to mod this and make it possible to play ireland or Scotland?

    It's hard to tell for sure before we've actually seen the way ETW works under the hood, but if it's anything like previous games, it should be easy enough.

    There might be some challenges to depicting them perfectly historically though. For example, the nature of any prospective rebellion in Ireland changes through the period: at the start (1700) they would be probably be Jacobites rising for the exiled Stuart king (Jacobitism did remain strong in Ireland even after James II abandoned the country) but after Jacobitism fades away after 1746 people turned towards a republican solution which became firmly entrenched after the French Revolution. So it would be unlikely that an Irish rebellion in 1700 would be republican, or that one in 1800 would be monarchist...

    Well if the Americans are playable when they emerge, I suppose you could make the Irish and Scotish playable.
