That would be a civil war. That would be a cool feature, but I don't think it should be on their top priorities on things to add before launch. Would be an awesome post launch addition though.
I've seen them actually hold a town for long enough to gain independence. It just requires the nation it's rebelling against to be weakened or busy in another war for it to succede.
Yeah like starting a civil war preparation stage during which you can convince powerhouses(gang leaders, aristocrats etc.) in towns and villages and clan leaders to join your cause and faction leader trying to stop your uprising by guaranteeing clan leaders loyalty and promising them land or such. When you succeed in preparing for the civil war and faction leader failing to stop you all lords and towns you convinced will defect from the faction and join your cause, creating a rebel faction altogether. When you're captured in battle you will be put in prison thus probably ending the rebellion or you can capture the faction leader and demand loyalty from enemy lords. Would be really cool!
I ran a 20 year test for mexxico and now 10 years into a game myself and not one succeeded. Could be bad RNG, I know not all rebellions can win but it appears because loyalty gets low and stays low that there are a lot of rebellions and hardly any succeed. If rather see it the other way, less rebellions but more succeed.
I ran 1 20 year test and 1 10 year one.
I've seen about 4 succeed in a 7 year game. One stayed independent for awhile too..... then I kicked them out and took their town
The others joined their original faction. It's pretty fun. The Khuzaits have had few on their over extended fiefs, but they're very fast to get their and kick the rebels out. They're really expanding now too even though I gave them a thorough beatdown in the early game till they had too pay high tribute multiple times. It's those t2 tribesmen I probably just had bad RNGI've seen about 4 succeed in a 7 year game. One stayed independent for awhile too..... then I kicked them out and took their town
Started a new campaign with 1.5.6 and I must say I really like rebellions.
It does a good job slowing down greedy factions and add a nice flavor to the campaign as certain cities at the center of conflict areas will often be in revolt. In my campaign it's Lageta, that has been occupied by Empire, Sturgia and Battania and have seen like four rebellions. Gives a feeling of sacked, indomitable city.
New clans are useful too, to resplenish the lord pool as noble clan members dies on the battlefield. It is fun to watch them climb the ladder and receive multiple castles in their new faction. Adds a lot to the world dynamic in my opinion.
Then, since the feature is really cool, I would like to be an actor in rebellions !
Like with a roguery-based "Incite Revolt" action (decrease town loyalty by ambushing a garrison patrol) for example.
I hope we will see more world events like this (private feuds and civil wars please please ?).
Thanks for the hard work !

It seems like you attacked a settlement in which the rebellion already took place. In this case of course the garrison will be loyal to the rebellion. The rebels would not leave men loyal to the original lord in their garrison.
