Extremely high Revolt Risk kills ability to recruit troups

[unmerged(6147)]

Playing as China I had 30% RR for 20 years between 1644 and 1664. During all these years I could not raise any troops anywhere, regardless of my stab.

Earlier I had a 20% RR and then I had a reduced ability.

This is not fun and 100% unrealistic. My guess is that Paradox did not foresee this effect of an otherwise nice change in how the game works.

IMO at least in core provinces you control there should be some ability to raise troups left.

When you say you couldn't raise troops, was that because the province's tax base dropped? Or you had 0 manpower? or what?

Is increased RR % supposed to affect recruiting directly? Can't say I'd noticed it.

It's because the high RR made all effective tax base values zero. It is the effective tax base that controls recruitment, hence no recruitment.
