Newbie suffering from unrest

[Toni_Bubu]

I found way too many hits when I searched the forums for anything helpful, so I'm trying this way...

We're in the early stages (turn 22) of my first EA MP game. Since three turns, unrest is increasing in three of my provinces close to my home province for no apparent reason (no overtaxing, fights, random events...). As far as I know, none of the nations within comfortable walking distance of my realm can recruit stealthy units which are capable of instilling uprising. So here are my questions:

1. I suspect Pangaea of pushing around stealthy armies in my provinces , is this enough to cause unrest?

2. Are there any recruitable indie scouts which can cause unrest? I never saw any in my SP games.

3. I am still quite overwhelmed by the sheer number of spells in the game, are there any that can cause unrest which are castable at this stage of the game?

And finally: Is there anything I can do except for patrolling and reducing tax?my gold reserves are dwindling fast...

Thanks in advance for the help!

1. Yes, it seems the most likely if not the only option at this stage of the game
2. No.
3. Yes, there're but with any of them you would get a message about an event in your province.
4. Probably not. Mind hunt is the best option here but I doubt you have it. Also, big sneaking forces should be rather easy to detect.

Just to ask the obvious: You're not playing Hinnom, are you?

No, I'm playing T'ien Ch'i. Thanks for the help!

Or Pangaea and are using Satyr Sneak units.

Edit: I'm just too damn slow!

Just to be clear on this (well, it's not as if it wouldn't make sense, but still): The mere fact, that they're there is enough to cause unrest? Because if it's enough to have a bunch of stealthy units in your provinces I may have a problem... a loooot of stealth capable nations on my borders...

Or you just lucked on three Devil's den (or other such sites) - search with Blood Bowl.

The Satyr Sneak unit of Pangaea causes unrest naturally, and doesn't have to be given any special orders for it to create unrest. So if you are playing against Pangaea, then there is a good chance this could be the cause of your unrest. Since an easy tactic for any Pangaea player is to send armies of Satyr Sneaks stealthing through opponents lands to ruin their economy.

Calahan, good to know, I'm very sure this is what's happening. Well, let's root them out!

Likely just unrest-causing sites. Do some searching with blood.
