Brigands and rebels...

[GeneticFlea]

Hey guys, im playing as the Arverni currently and i find it a pain and annoyance to be constantly chasing down brigands in very small igsignificant numbers(one or two units) when im trying to focus my military elsewhere...does anyone know of a way in which i can stop brigands from appearing alltogether?

I think this can be achieved by opening export_descr_unit.txt in the data map and removing slave from all stat_ownership lines. However, I cannot vouch that this won't cause trouble or seriously alters gamebalance.

but wouldnt doing that get rid of all the rebel armies as well? since brigands and rebels are one in the same? I love the different cultural specific rebels ive got to fight, just not the random indescriminate brigands that are random.
