Which region are the rebels considered in?

[Viking Prince]

Yes, this is a real question. When rebels are occupying a bridge on a river that divides two regions, which region are the rebels considered to be residin in? This is important when consdering devestation as well as the likely chances of the rebels attacking the settlements. Granted, the rebels do not seem likely to attack AI settlements, but your own controlled settlements are a taget if rebels occupy the region.

Or maybe I am concerned about nothing. Always a possability.

If this is vanilla you have almost no chance of being besieged by rebels, altough it happened to me once but that was een exception 'cause i've never seen it happen before or after that.

I dont know the answer, but I'd bet that if you attack them with a stronger stack, they will almost certainly retreat into the other province. That should settle the worry.

Can you right click on the bridge?

I think through hotseat we can find which regions is affected by taking control of Scotland and HRE and seeing the settlement details for Antwerp & Bruges.

Shouldn't you be more worried about the English stack next to Bruges? Via right clicking, the bridge itself seems to be in Antwerp. Confirmed later by moving one of my own stacks on it and then checking the agents list to see which region they are in.

True and i confirmed it from the mapping files always going technical for no reason.

I can say with a totally straight face I have never seen rebels besiege a settlement, in Rome, M2, or a mod.

Do this.

Scotland and HRE don't start with those settlements.

Lol i know this, for testing its easy "madras" and "istanbul"(cheats) and move the army and BAM then switch faction etc. But painter already confirmed this in game and i from mapping files.

I saw if a few times in Magyar Mod, and once in vanilla M2.
I think the magyar mod guys used a script though (to represent pecheneg and cuman raids into Hungary), so they were not the usual rebels without a clue.

An interesting thread and an excellent piccy I've wondered about it too in the past and assumed (luckily correctly) that since the rebel stack has emerged from its province and stepped over its province line that its now giving grief by devastation to the province next door.

I too can't recall ever being besieged by rebels, although I've often had a mean looking rebel stack or two right outside the front door of my settlements doing that "come on and have a go if you think you're hard enough" thang

I regard em as 'elite rebels' with a lot more bottle than the regular rebels who pop up miles away.

I take it you haven't played EB then?

[Monsieur Alphonse]

Enemy armies that turn rebel can but were one the move to attack your settlement can still besiege that settlement. So on a very rare occasion it can happen

[Double A]

I prefer
add_pop "Castle" 40000
add_money 40000
add_money 40000
process_cq "Castle"

And repeat the process on all the other castles or towns I can turn into castles.

And then just cause hell with insta-moving armies. It only takes four turns to make an army.

This is freaking crazy with the Byzies.
