The better way to deal with it as I'm sure you know is to simply not have a secession or civil war. And yes, if you give a weak army or two to disloyal factions it will prevent the 20 stack from spawning.

Roman civil wars can and will have marian reform units even if you haven't researched it, as an example. This 20 stack is often absurdly powerful, usually holding multiple tier 4 units. If you remove all disloyal faction members from command, or you only use your own family, the game will auto spawn one army, usually a 20 stack army, and if it's a big civil war at least one much smaller army. If you want to change that, you can use a couple different family actions to pull them into your family. Originally posted by Canadian Ninja:I believe it should be any and every disloyal faction that secedes, though if it's a civil war it might force at least two factions to leave, the most disloyal.Īll members of a disloyal faction that secedes will secede with them. If the game will only use forces commanded by the two betrayer families, and spawn new stacks if there aren't enough armies/navies relative to your imperium level or if all forces are commanded by your family, does this mean that you can manage your faction to minimize the war by fielding a few half strength or weak units for the two factions you expect to betray you so the game won't spawn more powerful stacks for them? And positioning your family forces next to the two low loyalty families owned territories right before you trigger the civil war?

If you trigger a civil war, either trying to change your faction into an empire or because you got bad rolls for the other families traits that got out of hand as you expanded and got an unlucky trigger with a 5% chance, there's a few intricacies I was curious about.ĭoes the party that is the most loyal to you stay loyal when the civil war event happens, or does the game randomly pick two families to declare war on you? And are admiral and general loyalties tied to their factions? Will all generals and admirals that belong to a betrayer family follow their family into rebellion? Or vice-versa will some remain loyal, especially if you have more generals and admirals from the other families then your own?Īnd is there any chance of your family's forces betraying you if you only field armies and fleets with your own family? Or will the game spawn full betrayer stacks to makeup for all of the factions armies being your family loyalists? Also, because I'd forgotten to adopt and marry as many men and women into my family as possible for influence and army control, and I didn't want to mass disband my armies and give-up frontier territories to re-raise the armies in my interior territories and reconquer everything, I kind of had to just scrap and restart this campaign. I got caught unprepared with my 'safe' provinces not optimized to counter betrayals from the provinces that belonged to the enemy houses (I know there's an overlay in the strategic map that shows the provinces that belong to the other houses but forgot to check and remove military buildings in the ones that were betrayal prone) by not removing military buildings in other family's provinces and building them in my family's bordering own. Meanwhile I had an unfortunately placed betrayer army in Southern Gaul with no one around to deal with them and another unhindered betrayer army left in my Africa frontier. I didn't know about managing the family politics in my first Carthage grand campaign by forgetting to expand my own family's number of generals and admirals and ended up in a terrible situation where all three of my elite fleets defected, trapping a lot of my loyal armies on the other side of the Mediterranean in Greece and Asia Minor while at war with some other factions.
