Description
Ethiopia 1936 start, normal difficulty. Had a mutiny event November 1937, decided to give a nice speech which had an 80% chance of success.

Speech failed, got the mutiny event again Jan 1938. Exit to menu and reloaded twice with no success. Thought maybe the RNG die is cast when the decision is first made to deal with gamey save/reloading.

Spent another 125PP and made another nice speech. Failure and Mutiny Event again. Italians ran me out of town before I could find out if a third speech would work.

Next mutiny I'm going to shoot the bastards.

so you got the event that the speech failed, and then afterwards a second (separate) event of another mutiny?

Yes. The crisis (Mutiny, Strikes etc.) appears as a National Spirit and you have three choices to deal with it: 1) Ignore the crisis (and it will get worse), 2) Get tough, with a lower chance of success (60% I think) and might make the situation worse but works faster and costs less PP, or 3) Use propaganda and appeal to people's patriotism. 80% chance of success but costs the most PP.

If option 3 fails then the crisis crisis continues but doesn't get worse. It essentially triggers again with the same three choices.

I had a "Strikes!" event earlier in the same campaign, which I ignored and it festered into "Widespread Strikes". I then took the "nice" option (make heroes out of production workers) which ended the strikes (removed the National Spirit).

I'm afraid you just got unlucky here. I can resolve the mutinies just fine. Let me know if you keep having this happen.

I had the same issue as China : When taking the event to get rid of the mutiny, if it fail, I get notified, but if it doesn't fail, I didn't get notified and the national spirit stay with it harsh modifiers despite all the PP invested AND being at peace. (game lost to an other warlord because of that)

I will try to reproduce the issue

Did you take the tough option (surround the mutinous units IIRC) or the patriotic speech?

I'll likely try another run through. There are some legitimate changes like increased manpower and equipment attrition when defending that have really upped the challenge for an Ethiopia player.
