I know people know of the code but playing a campaign with .conan. on is a total blast.
Just type in .conan. and you will lose control of your current country and be playing as every rebel on the map. Try playing a whole campaign - its insane. LOTS of battles every turn, often against overwhelming odds. If you like defending siege battles than you get LOTS of them while playing as the Rebels.
Sometimes you can get an economy going quite well in certain areas and develop them. I grew a decent Scottish army and took over the entire island and my Lithuanians have been holding out against CONSTANT warfare with the Poles, Novgorods, and Hungarians for almost 150 years now. The Mongols just arrived and its gonna get crazy. I've had my Scottish, Lithuanian, and a German general go from 0 stars to 9 stars JUST from battles and no fake stars from titles. It's turning out to be one of my favorite campaigns and you never have to worry about dealing with royal family and trade and economy and stuff for once. It's nice to make money and build up, but you're always gonna get new troops from rebellions all the time.
The only real annoying thing is when a faction comes back to life and steals off a ton of your troops, even ones that weren't theirs to begin with. Grrrrrr. My Lithuanians wiped out both the Poles and the Russians but they both came back and their "conquerers" joined them.
Anyway, everyone should give it a try at least once - see how long you can hold on. And if you have cash, ALWAYS upgrade your castles with extra walls and siege weapon towers. It makes the assault battle all the more interesting.
Just as an aside, I recently had a rebellion in Mercia in 1207 led by Robin of Locksley. He has his own portrait and was a decent fighter. His unit of Saxon Huscarles killed over 800 men before they routed with 2 survivors, but my Scottish army rescued him. He's turning into a total alcoholic now though haha.
