    It's cause CA knows the battles are just so awesome they think, hey lets reward all players that actually get trough this game for around 100 turns (an achievement on it's own really)with free stacks of enemies to kill.
    In any total war you might be like a kid in a candy store in a situation like this.
    In RomeII the kid has diabetes.

    Seeing that there are 20 stacks, I'm thinking that you are using Radious Campaign mod or any other mods that increases the max limit of armies that can be fielded ?

    If that's the case then it's a known problem of the mods since your computer will calculate how many armies you can field and not the actual number of armies fielded.

    At least it's a challenge, I just hope your game won't crash during the Rebels turn as it did for some people.

    Exactly why I modded the Radious Campaign mod back to default values for army limits - silly nonsense like this.

    I also think Radious mentioned his mod breaks the civil war even more. Probably best to disable it before the civil war starts then re-enable it.

    Using the radious mod I had to face around eight or ten mid sized armies of rebels while i had 20 full size armies, 10 of them stationed near rome after i got senator supremacy over 80%. On top of that, rebellion broke out in a settlement without barracks so I guess I got lucky with it concerning replenishing.
    Took me around 7 years to punish them as I surround them from land and sea. First legion to attack them faced total destruction but all they got was a pyrrhic victory and after that was easy to choke em to death. I play on normal difficulty.

    What?? I'm actually jealous! The AI rarely attacks me with full stacks.

    I might purposefully start a civil war now, closest I'll get to fighting large battles with the current AI behaviour

    I got 9 stacks in my civil war with no mods, and my army limit at the time was 9 so.. I killed em all with one stack on defending one of my cities, the AI just kept attacking it and crammed everything through my main gate where my army of Swordmasters/longbowmen/ballista + Garrison just raped them. Killed prob 40k with one army on very hard, It's sad since I remember the AI doing this in rtw and mtw2, and still does it. I must admit it was pretty funny though :p

    once you learn to kill and control any character with high ambition from gaining too much gravitas you never have to face civil war

    This was a problem in the original Rome too - when a city rebelled it would recruit a big stack of veteran elite units as rebels.

    Civil wars aren't too bad... It seems like they wanted to emulate past features from the Total War games which fans enjoyed (meaning the Mongol invasions).

    However, I wish AI factions also had civil wars.

    Are you using mods? If so, it is really unfair of you to criticize the game itself for this. Also, by posting this in the general section of the forums, it will be wrongly conflated with complaints from people who are playing vanilla, which makes it more difficult for CA to sort through what they may be able to improve.

    If you're not using mods, disregard this. Also, the picture is hilarious.
