Ethiopia randomly capitulating

[Israel Hands]

June 1936. War against Italy is going well - I've held the North. A frontline has been stable for a few months now in the mountains. I'm comfortably winning every battle. Halfway through the League of Nations address focus.

Suddenly I get a notification the war is over. I've lost. Now in exile. On Ironman so can't restore an earlier save.

This must be a bug right?

Check your war support and your surrender limit, going boarding the train lowers your surrender limit. The Italians also bomb you a lot, so your war support decreases that way. If they take over 50% of your country you also lose war support if your balance of power is shifted on the left side, which should be the case unless you significantly changed it.

I had the same experience from the Italian perspective. I had taken the north and south and was one push from taking the rest. Wanted to hold to keep the war going for some more months. But then out of nowhere, Etiopia capitulated.

It seems like a low war support problem, completing conquer the north and conquer the south lowers their war support by 10% respectively. A low war support would lead to a low surrender limit and they would capitulate quicker.

Are Etiopia slowly loosing war support then? Because i dont not take any more tiles after north and south missions were completed.

There is at least one timed decision in the balance of power that gives significant hit to war suppor/surrender limit where you are tasked to control at least 6 Ethiopian states, quite hard.

Ok! My problem is that the war is too short, so I dont have research/pp to finnish the pacify etiopia mission in time.
