Question about faction ranks and attacking towns

[Dehitay]

I've noticed that factions seem to have ranks from 1 to 10 with 10 being the most powerful. I was wondering what rights come with all the ranks?

Also, when a faction attacks a town, how do they get all their troops and equipment to attack with them? Does it automatically send all the faction's troops when a member of the faction attacks? Does the attacking member have to be a certain rank? Does everybody just have to transfer all their troops and equipment to the attacking member? Is it based on who's troops and equipment are in attacking range of the target?

Thanks for any help

As far as I know no rights follow the ranks, besides being able to promote someone to a higher rank.

Yes

Yes

Incorrect.  Only higher ranks can kick someone forma  clan by making them rank 0.  Also, only they can switch ownership of fiefs and fief owners are the only ones who can make decisions within that fief.
