Rebels and mercenaries

[TemplarKnight633]

Hi devs — I imagine as a rebel army grows and gets stronger through pillaging and raiding towns and conquering provinces and gaining sympathy from the rest of the population that not only will its manpower increase, but its resources, and particularly gold, will also increase. So would it be possible for rebel leaders to pay for and recruit mercenary units to join their cause? After all, mercenaries go to the highest bidder, regardless of who the buyer is and what their ideological motives are for fighting a war.

Probably yes.
