    Default Hotseat campaign professional rebels?

    Me and a friend were playing Hotseat, him Scotland and Ireland, me Genoa and the Papal States, when it came to my turn as Genoa I had siege towers and all at Milan to take over it, and when I got in there, they had some kind of Knight in heavy armour that looked like full plate (Can't remember what they were) armoured sergeants and an abundance of Genoese Crossbow Militia, the game start was 1080, I only had access to units like Italian militia, cavalry militia and Genoese and Pisan Sailors. My friend noticed a similar thing when he besieged Caernarvon, they had Armoured Swordsmen! Luckily I've tweaked Galloglaichs to do 35 damage with a charge, and 20 when holding a line, otherwise he would have lost. Are early game rebels supposed to be so dangerous and well-equipped, so well equipped that the player might have to wait about 200 years to see the likes of their units? Dosen't sound right at all

    Well, the thing is, there's only 1 table the game can select rebels from. There's no Early/High/Late era rebels, just rebels.
    So, either there must be a certain chance that the rebels might spawn with powerfull units, at all time, or it will be peasants forever. No middle ground, unfortunatly.

    Thats no random spawning, the army is described in the descr_strat.txt file in the campaign folder.
    Code:
    unit        Italian Spear Militia                exp 2 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
    unit        Italian Spear Militia                exp 1 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
    unit        Italian Spear Militia                exp 1 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
    unit        Italian Spear Militia                exp 0 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0

    unit        Pavise Crossbow Militia                exp 1 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
    unit        Pavise Crossbow Militia                exp 0 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
