To go hand in hand with country-specific rebels, perhaps there should be faction-specific flags as well?

Obviously, the country-specific ones would be scripted, but many generic ones could be automatically drawn from game files - for example, nationalist rebels of a country that doesn't exist could simply wave the flag of that country.

I think this may just be confusing. Maybe if the frame around the flag was different, or if the flag was flown vertically as opposed to horizontally to show they're rebels? Or defaced with a rebel symbol of some kind? This would require thoughts from the art department on how it could be realised within the existing look of the game.

there is one thing in the rebal system, rebals that are different group/type should fight other rebal. i see it in eu3 that a lot of time rebals of 2 diff beliefs or reasons fighting together. and not each other. had some 2 diff heritic groups fighting together. and not one another.

As a Paradox gamer I'm sure you've seen the term 'rebel' often enough to be able to spell it correctly. It appears five times in this thread alone. Is it really so hard to use real English? I have no idea what you're attempting to say, nor do I suspect it is relevant.

most likely not ;)

As for kreppert's question, I doubt it will be in there. Especially if the EU rebels with a cause didn't fight each other.

But I guess you could imagine that they join forces out of neccessity (my enemy's enemy is my friend kind of thing). Once one of them wins, they would probably end up fighting each other eventually, when the heretics that didn't get to convert the entire country gets upset again :)

Maybe English isn't he or she's first language. You understood, in any case.

Different regimes get different flags, as the screenshot of Mosley's Republic of Britannia showed. Rebels could get something different from the generic revolutionary banner, though I think it a judgment call to decide whether to run the risk of confusing them with loyalist forces.

I like this idea. In V1 there was lots of great flags made by the developers and the modders that was never or nearly never shown in the game.

If e.g. left wing rebels would use the communist version of a countrys flag when they rebel it would be great. And think of the artists, it must be fun for them to see their work more often.

Flags maybe will be for V2 what sprite is for HoI3 (something that ordinary modders can make and sell). But what point is it to make and sell an american communistflag if it´s shown 1 game out of 100?

That would be awesome to see something other than the generic rebel flag, would be really interesting to watch a civil war go on like that too. What would be cool too is to see the whole countries flag change or maybe even color if the rebels were successful, like they were so often in the Liberal Revolution in Germany.

The terror of watching the red-gold-black rebels overwhelm my beautiful autocratic Prussia and impose the colors of the democratic rabble would be awesome, yes, if by the word you describe the growing chill that it would produce in me.

Because it isn't like a Paradox gamer would have ever seen the word rebel before. You know, in-game, or in the forums, or in the title of this thread...

I find it hard to believe he hails from a land without capital letters. Incidentally, people for whom English isn't a first language usually take far more care with spelling than native speakers. Oh, and find me an Indo-European language which uses 'rebal' instead of 'rebel', considering the original Latin is 'rebellis'. He's not learning English, he's merely 'too cool for school'. If indeed he is learning English however, he can be glad I'm helping him.

SO basically youre asking that if a communist POP rebels in England, instead of the rebel flag, he uses the english Communist Flag UNLESS England uses the that flag already in which case he uses default Rebel flag?
