Episode III will not unlock

[Darz]

I took both Quebec and Montreal which completed both main objectives. I got messages confirming that I had taken the cities, but after I conquered both cities episode III did not unlock. I then proceeded to capture every single city on the map...still nothing after 100 turns.

I restarted episode II in case the save game was bugged. Once again I captured both Quebec and Montreal and episode III did not open up. I have all the other side objectives completed.

Anyone else have this problem and find a solution?

this is a known issue. and I think it will be addressed. I had this issue all I did was reload from a prevous save and got it done. however I may have gotten lucky.

Ok, thanks for the help. Maybe I'll try it again a few more times to see if I can get it to work.

Same problem for me. I thought Ep3 was supposed to unlock when you take Louisbourg

i had the same problem but my solution was getting a friends save game who had already come to episode 3...

Isn't there a date in the victory conditions screen? Can't remember. If so you just have to play a few more turns until that date.
