    Default Do civil war rebels ever rejoin your faction?

    I was playing Welsh in Viking era, Caravel mod. I had a civil war and backed my king. My main stack in Wessex went rebel, so I pulled out the only loyal unit and let them have the province. Elsewhere, I had loyal troops only or else fought the rebels and won.

    Next turn, I looked at Wessex, and the rebel stack was dark green and loyal again. I think the leader of that stack was the leader of the rebellion (i.e., would have been my king if I had backed the rebels), but I'm not completely sure because there were a couple of generals around called Iago.

    I haven't had a MTW civil war in ages, so I don't really remember. Is stuff like that supposed to happen?
    In those simple times there was a great wonder and mystery in life. Man walked in fear and solemnity, with Heaven very close above his head, and Hell below his very feet. God's visible hand was everywhere, in the rainbow and the comet, in the thunder and the wind. The Devil too raged openly upon the earth; he skulked behind the hedge-rows in the gloaming; he laughed loudly in the night-time; he clawed the dying sinner, pounced on the unbaptized babe, and twisted the limbs of the epileptic. A foul fiend slunk ever by a man's side and whispered villainies in his ear, while above him there hovered an angel of grace . . .

    Hi Brandy Blue

    You pose an interesting question. I'm afraid I don't know the answer, but I hope someone has some experience to draw on about this.

    Best regards

    The Caravel mod is NOT made for the Vicking campaign. Only for the early era (it has its own Caravel mod cxampaigns customised for unit sizes). If i'm not mistaken, i've seen this happen once.

    Well, I put it like this.
    I downloaded and installed the Caravel Mod, and played a campaign in Viking era. I noticed that the names of some units had changed, and I do not know what other unintended changes the Mod may have made to Viking era. I agree, thats not the same as saying that the Caravel Mod is a Viking era mod.

    Probably the mod has nothing to do with what happened, as civil wars are hardcoded AFAIK. I just mentioned it for completeness.

    It happens occationally, also for the AI (it's usually that influence boost that prevents the civil war spiral). It's often started by a loyalist rebellion that drags a bunch of provinces with them, although that sudden silent joining happens as well.
    We are all aware that the senses can be deceived, the eyes fooled. But how can we be sure our senses are not being deceived at any particular time, or even all the time? Might I just be a brain in a tank somewhere, tricked all my life into believing in the events of this world by some insane computer? And does my life gain or lose meaning based on my reaction to such solipsism?

    I know BB. I didn't meant you said anything for the mod. I just clarified what it does and what it does not. Thanks for trying it anyway ;)
