Romani crash

Good day everyone,

Let me start by saying that I just love to play EB and was heart broken when I couldn't get past a certain stage in my Romani campaign even with the fixes proposed in the bug thread.

My situation is this, i'm playing as the Romani and have conquered all of Italy / Sicily and Greece. The Hayasdan have also expanded north into Sauromatea lands and they have conquered two of their cities. When I press the "next turn" button the game crashes at the point where the AI gets to the Hayasdan, so after checking their settlements I noticed that one of their newly conquered cities "Gava-Thissakata?" was rioting.

Ok no problem, i'll just reduce the population and make them a bit happier again... but I can't, the city only has 400 as population and I can't go below that. Even more annoying is that after trying another fix (Taking over the AI faction), I notice that the Hayasdan are totally broke and can't even pay for buildings to increase happiness.

Then I installed the force diplomacy mod, but realising shortly afterwards that I can never get a diplomat to that city in time and trying the "move_character" command doesn't work either (damn Roman names). I'm prety sure i'm using the "move_character" command wrongfully and i've tried the "A -> K" numbers but it just wont work.

Is there anything else I can do, except for starting a new game then :(
