allways rebelling settlements in BI??

[Praetorian1]

Hi, i'm playing RTW BI 1.6 with the Eastern Romans, i took 2/3 of the map & also achived VICTORY but there are 3 settlements (Vicus Vandali, Dumatha & Campus Sakae) keep rebelling no matter how many times i keep taking them back & annihilate all their population i must have taken them back at least 5-6 times each & after the 1st turn REBELLION & OVERTHROW soon after to the point where its becoming BORING. when i take them there won't be buildings to build yet so that i may balance their happiness with buildings & they won't give me a chance till buildings show up to build cos each time i'm getting over thrown & some times even my army & general in them defect due to the rebellions & become eastern roman rebels.
Can someone pls tell me if there's something i can do to stop these rebellions & overthrowing from the same 3 settlements over & over & over again??? or maybe can i turn off rebellions from somewhere in the files?? cos its becomeing really boring.

Tnkx in advance!

Destory every building in the settlement next time you take it over. Then start from the bottom

[Praetorian1]

tnkx , its solved the problem of 1 settlement but not all buildings can be destoryed only 3 of them, but the rest of the building's destroy option was off.

[StealthEvo]

Destory what you can . Make sure you build respective religion buildings, and public order shizzle. Getting a governer with a High Law trait might help up. Maybe relocating the capital closer to alleviate the distance to captial issue might help as well

[Praetorian1]

the only 2 buildings i can build is the same 2 i destroyed, although 1 of the 3 settlements now is ok the other 2 are still rebelling & they just threw me out again & the few governors & generals i have i need them in other cities to keep building & upgrading. from Campus_Sakae & Vicus Vandali i'm still getting rebellions & overthrown is there something else i could do?? switch off rebellions or find some way to unlock building to build in those 2 settlements??

[King_Of_Seleucid]

Yeah i had the same problem, i relocated my capital bam was fine.

[Praetorian1]

ok, i try relocating my capital then , tnkx to u too King of Selucid the thing is that 2 settlements vicus vandali & campus sakae are abit spaced apart, but i gotta try it

Change the location of your capitol. Choose any settlement closer to the rebellion settlements. There should be a little circle button on the main building screen, otherwise look in settlement details/browsers. It looks like a star

Then simply change that town to the capitol. It should provide a more centralised location. Bearing in mind. To avoid rebellions I find that 50-60% public order is a good place to aim for. You can see what contributes to the public order in settlement details. Train a few spies as well to see if the Ai arn't trying to cause unrest with spies. But the capitol change SHOULD sort out the issues your having

[Praetorian1]

i changed the capital from constantinople to vicus vandali, & although vicus vandali was settled i had more rebellions in constantinople & the nearer settlements now & campus sakae still overthrowing me out i never ever experienced these constant rebellions in all the other Total war games just in this. i can't train spies or anyone in those settlements cos like i said before i don't have building to build yet in them & the only 2 recruitments i cab make in them are peasants & limitanei.

I guest the religious there is far difference than yours. So try to do this trick. If you are Christian. Train a bunch of Diplomat in the settlements have 80-90% people following Christian. These Diplomat will have "Christian" trail which effect to the settlements nearby. Then send them to those settlements. They will quickly "convert" the population to Christian and increase happiness

[King_Of_Seleucid]

Do you mean priests? Not diplomats.
Or you could cheat, i can't remember what the auto build cheat is but I'm sure a quick search will find it.

[nhinhonhinho]

No RTW don't have priests. However diplomats often get these trail when you train them and they become a kind of "priest". The other agent like assassin and spy can also have that trail too. These trick only work in BI and mod

If you want to use cheat so you will need 3 cheat to do this

1. add_money. You need money to build
2. add_population. You will need more people to build more advance building
3. process_cq to build all building in slot instantly

[Praetorian1]

so if i have a trained spy or assassin, it will work if i send him to each of those 2 settlements???? i'll try

This is what i get for playing too much Med 2.

When you re-take the settlement exterminate.

[Praetorian1]

i did exterminate all population at least 5-6 times, each time i re-take them they still rebel & overthrow soon after

[Praetorian1]

i tried sending trained diplomats & spies, i tried changing the capital, i tried add population, i tried destroying the buildings i could but all for nothing. they are still rebelling & again they over threw me from these 2 settlements, i don't know how many times i reconquered them & slaughtered evryone in them only to rebel after the end turn. I don't know what else to do. THEY'R SPOILING MY FUN playing BI.

[nhinhonhinho]

Did you check settlements details there ?? If not check it and if you can post the settlements details here (and your settlements location too) we will find what is the problem

OK then i will give you another trick this is a decisive and all in one (yes you guys can call me a trickster it is a good "trail" in HOI2)

Exterminate all population there then train a bunch of peasant from your heartland. Bring them their and disband them. Plus another full stack of peasant to garrison,plus diplomats,plus your best governor (maybe the emperor himself). With those thing it is noway for rebel

If they still riot. Well add population to 12000. Then use process_cq to build all building. Then decrease population by add_population -4000. Do this until the population down to 400. Then you are done

If these thing didn't work. Then i afraid you have to leave those settlements alone and conquer the rest of the world

[Praetorian1]

well T H A N K Y O U V E R Y M U C H finally problem solved tnkx to u guys, those rioters are really pain in the ass , they were pissing me off so bad if i could i would nuke those settlements lol. i did like u said i added population to 12000 & used the process_cq cheat & rebellions stopped AT LAST & i didn't even decreased population, do u think i should decrease population anyway?? or just leave it like that?

those 3 settlements were from taken just after i started the campaign, now i took over 55 settlements , achived Victory condition & they were still rebelling so imagine how stubborn they were lol. tnkx again

[nhinhonhinho]

In some special situation cheat is acceptable dude

Congrats guy. Decreased population is necessery because the more population you have the more trouble
