Rebels joining your faction???

[oZoNeLaYeR]

I was playing as english in HighEra, as you guys know, english have Brittany, Anjou and Aquitaine. i left those 3 provinces to get to flanders, hence rebellions everywhere. approx 3 stacks in each province i left. but after 10 years later the rebels are joining my faction, i said, OMFG. WTF was that? http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif i mean 9 stacks joining my army. and one stacks came up nowhere in GRANADA WTF?? how am i going to support those 9 stacks.. duh http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/eek.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/eek.gif anyone experienced this?
oh yeah and in Navarre as well, 2 full stacks in Navarre, is this a bug or what? or the rebels are too afraid with me and started to joining me. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/joker.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smokin.gif

Choose the best troops from the stacks disband the rest, destroy buildings and leave the provinces (Divide and rule be happy http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smokin.gif ). Or throw them on your enemys to weaken them. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/joker.gif
It happends often now with the patch. Its easier for rebels to survive if you belong a real faction and the people liked you rule.

happened to me aswell. Playing as sicillians i had Scotland, I bought it, and Ireland, i invaded the homeland, adn i decided to burn Scotland and disband the army.When about 3 years later there is a massive insurrection against me and about 2 years later they declare for my faction sending my economy into freefall..why dont they get the hint when all my forces and administrators leave...I DONT WANT your province..bugger off..very annoying
