Ten years into a Late campaign and the Swiss are at war with the Egyptians, despite having always been hemmed in by France, Italy and HRE, having no navy (and no jokes), never having sent a crusade or taken part in one...etc...in fact never being at war with anyone..except the Egyptians.

What have I missed here?

Maybe the Swiss bribed some rebels? Unlikely, but possible.

And the Swiss don't have a seaprovince? Unlikely too.

That's true. They patrol Lakes Constance and Geneva apparently. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

I actually used .matteosartori. to check if the Swiss had founded a colony somewhere but there was no sign of that - nor their navy. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

can they announce war without even sending any troops to invade?

I don't think so. You have to invade or launch a crusade to have a war. Some conflict is required. Maybe you saved the game and reloaded it. Sometimes, I'm at war with somebody, I saved the game, reloaded, and we're not at war anymore.
