Hello,
I am currently playing a TO-->Prussia game, keeping up the northern Crusades, expanding eastward, bringing protestant cristendom to the asian heathens. Expanding till siberian border, and then going south converting.
I reduced Ming and the Timurids to insignificant powers and also did some major colonizing in North America. All went well, i had build me a nice Empire. A little bit backwards, but not too much, due to the early expenses of colonizing and the many poor central asian provinces, my state culture was spreading nicely due to 2 strategic capital moves, Divine Supremancy and Church Attendance Duty. I had monopolised my CoTs in Naugard (previously known as Novgorod before it converted to prussian culture) and Lübeck. It was a prussian version of Russia.
....
But then i got hit with the Time of Troubles in 1631. I litterally have been doing nothing but enjoying the pure ecstasy of ping-ponging rebell armies around my empire for ~5 years in-game, and roughly 10 hours real-world "playtime".
My country is not even close to serious damage, i still make a yearly surplus without minting. I have level 2 forts in all my provinces, so i can dislodge the revolters before the get the province in 99% of the times. Manpower is not depleting. I even finished my war with with Austria + minor allies when it popped, and fought a colonial war with England + Spain.
But it was teeeeeeEEEEEeeeedious.
So i though "ha,ha, im standing relatively well in this times of trobles (and indeed very tiresome they were)" but they kept on going, and going, and going, so i looked through the even files and found that:
NOT = { num_of_revolts = 1 }
So i was flabbergasted. Do i read that correctly? : It can end only if there are no revolts in my Country? What kind of nonsense is that?
In the end this event means: You will spend your time rebell hunting, from now until forever, until you finally quit this game and start a new one. BAM, you "lost" the game, just out of the blue sky.
Words can hardly describe my anger about this Event, without falling to the niveau of the drivel of a typical 13-year old pimpeled teenager who just now discovered that he can insult, degrade and use the foulest language in the internet without any real repercussions.
So is there any way to end this Event legally for a big country?
P.S.
Yes my stability is up, and i took decisions to reduce RR (as i cant stand ping-ponging rebels in normal wars, as it is just tedious) even before the Time of troubles hit. But getting Zero revolters going on in a big country under these penalties? No chance.
P.P.S.
have been doing some research and found that in the EU3 Wiki:
One has no provinces in revolt.
Under the condition for it to end. A slight sliver of hope on the horizon. So does it mean that i just have to keep all my provinces unconquered by rebels, or do i really need no rebels present in my Empire, to get the monthly chance for it to end?
