Rebel Farmers are composed of the poorest of rebelling peasants and farmers from the United Cities. They are spread out across several empire lands, attacking various travelers on the roads and then retreating back to their camps. The rebel movement of this faction is led by Boss Simion.
Despite coming from the common peasants of the society, many citizens and peasants of the empire have a hard time sympathizing with the Rebels, given that their banditry isn't exclusive to the upper class. Even the civilian AI reflects this lore, as depending on the civilian NPC, they either flee during the conflict or assist Empire Samurai in fighting the rebels (although the only civilian units that really fight the bandits are caravan or shop guards).
It appears that their cause for revolt has to do with The Empire's nobility, as seen in Boss Simion's comments of vexation with the Anti-Slavers, angered by the fact that they only focus on targeting slave caravans and not the true enemies to fight.
If the United Cities are destabilized and weakened as a result of the deaths of certain key nobles, the Rebel Farmers will increase in number or be replaced by the higher quality Rebel Swordsmen.

Trivia[]
- While they are fully hostile towards the United Cities (-100), they are only half as antagonistic toward the Slave Traders (-50)
- This is hard to tell in-game, however, since they otherwise function the same way, as factions are automatically hostile towards and attack one another once relations go below -30.
- Compared to the Starving Vagrants, they are 1.9x/0.12x (The Great Desert), 2.68x/0.79x (Heng) as much in individuals with Simion alive/dead.
- Compared to the Rebel Swordsmen, they are 0.49x/0.03x (The Great Desert) 0.54x/0.16x (Heng), 1.3x/0 (Skimsands), 1.45x/0.35x (Sinkuun) as much in individuals with Simion alive/dead.
