Civil war dilemma

[Gilrandir]

When a civil war in your faction starts, you are informed about the number of provinces loyalists and rebels have and the number of troops on each side. Is there any possibility to know what are these provinces and what kind of troops are billeted there to make a more knowledgeable choice?

Long time... greetings ;)

Hmm, I have not had a Civil War in M2TW in years..

I recently started playing again and a new Campaign but no Civil Wars yet.

So...IF memory serves, I think what happens in M2TW is that the non Loyalist Faction just becomes Rebels, and you have to conquer them again. It is not as developed as in Empire Total War where there is the formation of another Faction and act in unity.

You will know which provinces are Seceding because they will change to "Light Grey" Rebel color and the composition of their armies can be known the normal way through spies infiltration etc.

Hope this helps, Cheers!

Empathy and Compassion for all those that are suffering from the ravages of War in your country of origin, may the suffering end soon for all!

Hahah, I just noticed that this question pertains to the first MTW... oh boy!

My answer was for M2TW. So scratch that I guess, I really do not remember the mechanics of civil war in MTW and haven't played that since its time.

Sorry.

Thank you. And it's not only my country of origin, but also my country of residence. Unfortunately, the end of sufferings can't come as long as the senile president of the aggreessor state is alive/at power.

Oh I see, then I wish you and your family and friends to be well and safe in addition to my previous sentiments. I really think everyone is positively behind the people of Ukraine, even if some debate and criticisms exist at the Political/Geopolitical level.

War, real War is really not something to be wished for anyone.

I don't think so, you only get those few details. Your only real hope is being able to remember where the few named characters were located in the previous turn to get some sort of clue. To be honest, though, I usually go for the side with the most provinces once that point comes. In the longer term, I try to make sure my most valuable provinces are garrisoned by a general or family member of utmost loyalty, just in case.

As for the other, I join Suraknar in wishing you and yours an end to the miserable event which has been inflicted on you. It is heartbreaking to see. We need a Stauffenberg moment.
