I don't believe that there's a suggestion (endorsed or otherwise) on this. This suggestion is simple:

The Civil War

This function would be a fusion of the orc skirmish, in which that you get attacked by normally friendly Npcs, & the invasion. This would be enabled/disabled in the config. The higher you rank (in alignment), the greater the change of a civil war, until a certain point (possibly configurable?) after which the chance would decrease. This could either be multiple invasions, or 1 new invasion-type function literally called ‘civil war’. The reason I suggest this is that as you grow in power & influence, the ‘real’ leaders would probably try to stop you from displacing them by sending a army after you.

It would begin with multiple horn blows (maybe 1 for each normal invasion?), the chat would say ‘(faction/sub-faction) has begun a civil war!’ or something similar, & either multiple invasions or the civil war spawner would appear. Killing Npcs in those invasions wouldn’t decrease your alignment. The higher your alignment, the more troops spawn.

The civil war spawner, if used, would be identical to the invasion spawner, but maybe with 2 swords crossed? It would also have from 3 to 5 times as many troops, spawning 3 times as many units with each horn blow or spawning each 3 to 5 seconds?

Certain factions would be more likely to fall to pieces than others. Either we can cobble a list together, or leave it up to the mod team. I have some vague ideas on who would have a high/low chance, but help is appreciated.

High chance: Gundabad, Gondor ((possibly normal(?))if in normal Gondor, the fiefs invade, but in a fief, Gondor proper invades)

Low chance: Mordor, Isengard, any Dwarven faction

No chance: hobbits, any elven faction (excluding Dorwinion), fangorn

Help is apreciated on anything with (?) after it. This suggestion was inspired by a comment of mine on one of Futurefox's suggestions, but I can't find the link right now... Only kudos if you agree with all of this. If not, tell me.
