In the hellenistic empire mission, the second last mission trigger a massive civil war. How does the game determine which province will revolt and is there a way to manipulate it ? Currently in my game, almost all the core province which i use for my taxis revolt, resulting in the lost of most of my army. Couple this with the massive drop in income it's potentially run ending stuff. How do you deal with this "final boss" mission ??
Basilike Eirene ?!?

I just finished my Macedon run. ALT-F4 out of the game is what I did, then continue playing ignoring the mission.

lol that's what i did too. Was prepared to fight the final boss(which is myself, ironic) but no information whatsoever of how it works.
Also make absolutely no sense that my egyptian, phyrgian, and mesopotamian integrated pop would rebel to uphold the traditional rights of macedonian nobles. Lol what ?

It’s really frustrating and I regretted pulling the trigger almost as soon as I did. I thought it would be based on loyalty or something, but no it almost seems like it’s random. The revolt ended up with a much larger army than I could field. Of course their soldiers fought like tissue paper (I guess they don’t retain your mil traditions and innovations?) so it wasnt too hard to level the playing field. But the amount of land involved still made the thing drag on forever. And the revolt deletes a bunch of your buildings, so that sucks.
And then when you win, your reward is to have a couple hundred pops in major cities across the empire convert to Hellenistic. Macedonian gets demoted from noble to citizen but remains your primary culture (so you cannot regrant noble rights).
the whole thing is a waste. Rather than a fun end game boss it feels like you randomly shot yourself in a dozen places, then struggled to stop all the bleeding, and your reward is to knock a bunch of levels off your iq. FUN
I quit and started a new game. This time I never clicked on the mission. Discovered a bug in the process too. Once you get access to the mission you always have access to it until completed. Missions don’t remember your progress if you quit and restart them though. This means you can click the first mission that gives you 4 innovations. Then cancel the tree. This particular tree is always available if you have access to it, so there’s no cooldown. You can Immediately select the tree and get 4 innovations again. It doesn’t matter how far you progress either, as long as you don’t actually finish the tree you can get infinite innovations this way.

Innovations bug is interesting. Argead empire screwing with culture has been noticed before, forming Macedon has conflicting reports if the same happens, and kios to pontus also had similar reports
Shit, that reward is even worse than i imagine. Why the hell would anyone click that button now
Ps the tech exploit is neat but i think you have just killed it by mentioning it here lol
Make a back up of this patch if you want. Hellenistic culture being unbugged would be better than free inventions
Yeah I’ve said this before, but unique to the Hellenistic empire situation, even if the bug was fixed (and Hellenistic became your primary culture) the reward is still a penalty because their are so few Hellenistic pops. It invalidates any work you may have done converting pops to Macedonian and unnecessarily disenfranchises any Macedonian pops outside your country.
