So, I'm 30-something turns in, and playing a pretty "straight and narrow" expedition play through. Then, the game basically just straight up torpedoes my whole campaign all of the sudden, by siccing a famine and -1000 incomes on my ass for like a year straight. I'm broke, my core armies are gutted from having to desperately disband units, my integrity implodes, all the rest of my assigned armies mutiny, and there basically isn't a damn thing I can do about any of it.
I'm sorry, but what the Hell? How is that fair? I'm not the one actually managing the economy for my faction (besides setting taxes, for some weird reason), so how am I supposed to prevent something like that?
You can't even disband units from the new armies you get assigned to reduce upkeep, for God's sakes. So, you basically wind up having to gut your main two armies to the point where you can't actually fight anything, and are royally screwed if the assignees mutiny.
