    Default Roman Civil Wars

    Hello RS 2 fans. I have been playing a Roman O turn campaign and about a few weeks ago I managed to recreate Hadrian's empire. Now getting to the point of civil wars, I experienced two of the kind: first one during the time Hannibal and the second when I have reached the 85+ regions. After the latter I haven't experienced any other civil war. Was it intended to have two civil wars or more? I asking because there isn't much of a challenge left in the campaign. Apart from the economy of course . Thanks in advance.

    You can fight the civil war constantly as long as you

    let the rebels hold a land that you can send a diplomat to give

    land to. Preferably a turn before your faction leader drops dead

    so the new emperor does not get penalty (giving land makes

    you unpopular to the people and soldiers, and yes it is a actual trait

    as of 2.1. I'll check 2.6 later if you need me to)

    I did that for my 2.1 and 2.0 campaign. Should work fine on

    the 2.6 mod as well.

    BTW, if you give certain lands away the AI spawns a legion in said region so

    you can have a fight

    there should be more of them yes.not always settlements that rebel but also just some army's that don't like a new emperor.
    or full stack rebels that don't like roman rule....pannonian revolt,boudican revolt,tacfarinas revolt in numidia,jewish revolt,batavian revolt....
    lots of options imo

    but without the revolts you can always let the seleucids and the cimbrii alive with decent lands,so you have some strong enemy's at your borders to fight with,it's nt challenging but keeps the battles commin

    You can actually simulate that by giving the Roman Rebels

    some regions and they get a Legion (due to the script). You can also simulate the Jewish rebellion

    by keeping the Egyptians alive and allowing their start up units as the Jewish units ETC.'

    Or has RS 2 gotten more then 2 rebellions now

    Since this has something to do with the roman rebellions, I'll ask my questions here.
    I've got 85 settlements, and it's been 8 turns since then. So, here are the questions.
    1. Can armies and navies at sea rebel? I've got a large Mediterranean fleet that has the Legio III Agusta on it that I don't want to lose.
    2. Does loyalty play an important part in which generals revolt?
    3. Is it possible to make sure one character does not revolt?
    4. Do you always get rome, or is it something left to chance?
    Another random question, not related to the rebellion.
    Are Greeks seriously allowed to have mega spammed full stacks? Because when I attacked Nicopolis, I found 7 freaking stacks there. Every turn I get attacked by two Greek stacks from across the Hellespont, where they also have all of Anatolia and are whooping the Ptolemaic empire(my staunch allies) with two stacks. I raise 2 legions every 5 years, they raise 5 armies every two years or so. Its crazy. I can only fight a battle of numbers for so long.

    3. yes it is possible,put your characters that gonna rebel in a fort.hold them there untill the rebellion is over.
    they get a trait called rebellois general becomes loyal or something
