Smart nobles throw in their lot with the winning side  ;D
What is Freedom? - ye can tell; That which slavery is, too well; For its very name has grown; To an echo of your own

T'is to work and have such pay; As just keeps life from day to day; In your limbs, as in a cell; For the tyrants' use to dwell

Yea, I thought the rebels were the winning side.

Mind you, I really didn't put much thought there, nor did I really care. I was just sitting around anyways.

That is why Secession is better than a rebellion.

Before the rebellion many tell you they will support it, but then they join the loyalist.

During a Secession every aligned noble join the Dark Side, even against their will.

But secession and rebellions are sort of different though...

Secessions: F you Kepler, we are now Evilstani

The rebel leaders can still change their region allegience en mass before the rebellions ends, and force their nobles to join the Dark Side against their will.

Erm...but that doesn't actually help them achieve their ends, if what they wanted was to overthrow their government.

All that does is put them in a different realm. Which they could do without a rebellion any day of the week.

Only assuming they have a Duke.

Huh?

No...you don't need to secede, or have your Duke change allegiance, to take your region and leave the realm. Every region lord can join another duchy at any time.

Also, barring temporary situations between position loss and appointment, every Lord has a Duke, always. There are no Imperial or duchyless regions anymore.

I was relating it to the idea of a secession. You need a Duke to secede. And by "need a duke" I mean, "need a duke on your side" to do it.

But this is off-topic anyway, so I'll just drop it.

Well this is how I understand the rebellion... in terms that I find very understandable.

Wind "It is the tale of the scorpion and the frog"
Captain, "What is this tale"
Wind smiles brightly "It is a tale as old as the Gods" he begins telling it.

A scorpion and a frog meet on the bank of a stream and the
scorpion asks the frog to carry him across on its back. The
frog asks, "How do I know you won't sting me?" The scorpion
says, "Because if I do, I will die too."

The frog is satisfied, and they set out, but in midstream,
the scorpion stings the frog. The frog feels the onset of
paralysis and starts to sink, knowing they both will drown,
but has just enough time to gasp "Why?"

Replies the scorpion: "Its my nature..."


Captain shaking his head, "Yes, it makes perfect sense. Who is the frog and the scorpion?"

Wind rubbing his head, "That is up to you my friend"
