    Default Rebels and their effects?

    What do rebels effect on your land?

    Do they effect trade, growth, .....

    ...or can they be left alone until I want to use them to increase my new generals traits?

    If they're standing on a road, they reduce trade on it (this shows up as devestation).

    They can also blocade ports, and in rare cases take provinces by force.

    Yes, they cause devestation and it can cost a lot of money. And public order goes down. They can also grow into surprisingly tough armies, I've lost a couple of generals that way. Don't leave them for too long.

    Couple points:

    - I think blocking land trade (or sea trade, since land armies can blockade ports) is an independent effect from devastation. Blocking trade has an immediate effect, devastation grows over time. But the basic point is right, rebels cost you money. More money the longer you let them fester.

    - I don't believe rebel armies grow over time.

    - I don't believe rebel armies affect settlement order.

    - I think it's possible they will attack you, and even besiege a city but I have not seen this happen in M2TW yet

    - They can also, it seems, snuff out the line of sight of your watchtowers
