'''Insurrections''' are brutal and violent changes of loyalty within an entity site. They currently only happen in [[world generation]] and [[adventure mode]], and your adventurer may well start the game in the middle of one. Conversations with bystanders will helpfully provide the player with a modicum of information about what's going on, but the result is just a lot of inchoate fighting among a [[site]]'s residents, accompanied by a huge [[FPS]] drop. | '''Insurrections''' are brutal and violent changes of loyalty within an entity site.

− | Insurrections are distinct from [[Faction#Loyalty_cascade|loyalty cascades]], which stem from a bug caused by unusual player actions (taming enemy mounts or ordering your squads to kill merchants from your own civilization). By contrast, insurrections are programmed into the game ''by design'' and don't need player input to happen. They are also distinct from single troublemakers that are part of a fortress' daily life: [[berserk]]ers, [[vampire]]s, [[werebeast]]s, [[Tavern|brawlers]], [[tantrum]]s, etc. in that they are ''concerted actions'' involving large parts of a site's population. | + | Insurrections are distinct from [[Faction#Loyalty_cascade|loyalty cascades]], which stem from a bug caused by unusual player actions (taming enemy mounts or ordering your squads to kill merchants from your own civilization).
