Swifty

I gave it a try, but the other nation complained I was in their territory, and all it did was liberate the province for them. Not exactly the way I want to use my army, especially with an unfriendly kingdom.

Rebels have captured neighboring provinces (owned by a foreign kingdom). Can I capture and claim those provinces (from the rebels) without declaring war on the original owner? Mainly inquiring because the rebels, even though foreign, are causing instability in my provinces due to proximity.

After experimenting about the province that informed me they wished to be under my rule, I stumbled into the diplomacy screen with the other kingdom. In the Demand - Land option, said province was listed. When I demanded it the other kingdom gave it to me for gold and a promised marriage of my prince. If this is the intended procedure to gain a foreign province that informs you they wish to be under your rule the game message should lead you into diplomacy rather than saying to march your army there.

Got a message that a foreign province wishes to be under my rule. Message says to come on over with my army and I will be greeted with bread. I do so, but can't enter the town (it belongs to another kingdom), and I don't see any option to affect the province/town. What did I miss about this message? Am I supposed to do something, or is this message misleading? Thanks in advance
