The Pickaxe of Politics

[King Kurt]

Any rebels resulting from a civil war are your former units. No new rebels are created in the provinces by the civil war.

The civil wars I am inducing are in another faction not my own - I work very hard to avoid those!!

Sorry King Kurt, I wasn't paying attention. Good to see you back again btw.

Which is both funny & ironic, as I personally enjoy deliberately triggering civil wars in my own kingdom. Whenever I've reached that "steamroller phase" (where your faction has become huge & nigh-unstoppable), it's not uncommon for me to end up with a low-Influence "do-nothing" faction leader who's just resting on the laurels of his forefathers. I find this is often a good time to find a low-loyalty general who might decide to usurp the throne for himself, as I'm then able to replace my crappy king with a good one. Besides which, it also helps spice up a game that has grown boring and dull -- there's nothing like having a good civil war to force you to re-conquer half your empire (and sometimes having to deal with faction re-emergences as well)!

Congrats, mate.
