Hello, (hope I am posting this in the right section)
I have been playing MTW/VI as of late, and so far I am loving it.
I am somewhat close in total conquest of England with the Vikings, however it was not as easy.
One of the features that really surprised me was the Rebellions.
I had one hapen in the early stages of the game, 60 or so years after the start of the campaign, and I had just conquered the Picts, was preparing to Move on the Scots, when I moved one of the Hiers together in a territory where one of the other sons was already located.
And BOOM, next turn I had to choose between Loyalists and Rebels, and after the insuing series of battles not only I lost all Pict teritories but Norway too...I was reduced to Denmark, and had to reconquer Viking Held terotories before the campaign could continue for the conquest to england.
I then went in to reading the Book Documentation about Remelions-Loyalty related topics.
It is said that Hiers are Always Loyal to their Nation in the Book, but the rebellion started in a teritory where 2 of my heirs were generals.
I since, was able to avoid further rebellion by including hiers in to my Kings army, and a couple of Loayal Generals with higher command rating than the hiers.
But is this the case?
I did notice that when lineage of royal families change, some hiers lose their right to ascend the throne albiet retaining royal bloodline status. I can understand Generals may rebel but has anyone noticed Hiers doing so?
I still do not trust hiers with armies and theya re included in other armies ever since, I find it easyer to keep track of High command Generals rather than keeping track of the numerous hiers Loyalty.
However, this still ponders in my head, and I would like to know if someone can confirm if Hiers are safe to have a Commanders of armies or not.
Thank you
