This seems a bit unfair

Post by GHerr »

playing a game that i started a week ago with most recent beta. i am turning the corning into late game. not super interesting as i am begging to snow ball. then i see the unhappiness icon for a brief second before i get a message that my capital has rebelled, and all my spies that were there were killed. i can only guess that this was the Dhayut. if so this seems a bit unfair to have no warning and can't really do anything to stop it. if it were a smaller colony maybe but my capital? with 9 spies doing counter intelligence ?

i will say it did make it interesting, but this feels about as gut wrenching as the old DWU market crashes. not 100% apposed to this if it really was the Dhayut. its actually pretty cool. but are there ways to see that i am at rick? are there ways to prevent ? I have not played with them yet but im thinking if they can just spam something like this eventually they will get it.

has anyone else experienced this ?

I'm guessing you had no troops stationed there?

Don't disregard your colony garisson. They can save you from a lot of hassle, like surprise rebellions and raids.

Ugh. Good point. I have a bad habit of penny pinching and keeping my troop count too low. Thanks
