    Default Newly conquered cities

    I'm having some trouble in my newly captured cities. When I capture them, the public order is so low that I have to keep my army in there for about 15 turns or more because I have to build public order buildings. So I'm just wondering, Are my cities doing this because this is the way EB designed to to be or is it just a problem i'll have to deal with?

    I dont usualy care if my newly counquered cities have very low public order, unless they revolt to their old faction. I use to keep them red.

    From what i remember (havent played EB in almost 6 months) that is an actual game mechanic. I used to fix those probs by recruiting a lot of mercs and then slowly changing them with other troops when the public order was better and that let me continue with the conquering.
    But i could have missunderstud what you meen
    Dont fight for what you want, fight for what you can have.

    That's my problem, I can't leave that city because alot of times that city will revolt back to it's previous faction.

    send 2 armies , 1 main army and 1 of cheap levys, at best some with 240 men per unit or so..


    this way your main army can go further, while your levy-army protects the city...


    and when the window shows up, where you can choose whether you just occupy the city, or kill all inhabitants, you already can see if the city is red, blue or yellow... if its red, just kill all inhabitants, that mostly helps

    Many thanks to Hooahguy for this great sig.

    This is part of the fun with EB. You need to send garrison troops from you main cities while conquering.

    In real life managing of logistics would be the hardest part of a campaign. Otherwise your army would get stuck and die. Rome - total war dont allow to potray this in a good way.

    But I think the garrison problem becomes a good substitute. If you dont want your armies to get stuck you will need to have a steady supply of garrison troops to follow in its tray. This becomes really challengeing in long-away-campaigns - and really fun.

    A good navy and control of the sea is really importent. With your ships you will be able to quickly send garrison troops from your main land.

    I think public order should be much higher, or if it is low, I think the chanses of a rebellion should be very low.
