these small rebel stacks are not the revolt of spartacus.
count them as locals who are annoyed of your rule.

this happens very often. for example the Samnites in southern italy brought up some revolts even at high times of the roman republic.


i think it´s somehow related to the style of playing, because i never had those annoying rebel popup´s other players complaining about.
they are random and relativly rare.
I agree... Rebels were a major part of running an empire back in those days and even today in third world countries rebels control large clumps of the country and affect the way the government works... Except for places like Somalia where rebels completely run the country altogether...

But rebels in RTW are pointless! They appear in stupid places like i said, one unit rebel stacks blockading your port or road... Posing no threat whatsoever... If they appeared in well thought out uprisings, like when a city revolts, then i'd be absolutely fine with that... In a far reaching corner of your empire where some ambitious person decides he wants to break off and form his own nation, i'd be fine with that, all realistic and well as this happened many times... But when 2 units of leves appear outside a green happy face Rome and block your highways... No... I'm turning them off.
