reduce how much? ...does -4000 works anytime or is this just an example? ...besides the pitchfork icon i dont see any information else ..population in particular. ..in case a settlement has less population and i reduce more as there actually is...no problem then?

also i found the pitchfork icon there ten times ...do i have to reduce the settlements really that often or is it to find the right settlement which really would revolt in the next round?

i actually provoked rebellions quite often in my surrounding enemy satrapies using spies and assassins therefore ..- thought thats a proper way to weaken or distract the enemy.. would you say thats then counterproduktive regarding the Game itself.
the settlements which i caused to revolt just turned to a eleutheroi settlement ..never had a CTD because of these rebellions. ..as far as i know - cause the game went on after that.
To see every single bit of information on the enemy territory just press F1, then click on the question mark, it will pop up the generic script, activate it like the EBBS and remeber to close the advisor with the X, not the portrait, now you can see all the single bit of info of every settlement, it restarts after you close the campaign, if it doesn't or you want it activated instantly, follow the same process. As a side note i would recomend using the add_money [ammount 0-4000] cheat and the move_character cheat so you can bribe the city, if it's guarrisoned by a FM, download the force diplomacy, activate it and go to any army or city of the owner and ask the city for map information or something else, if it is eleutheroi then you should bribe it, remember to save into another slot the changes you made, if you don't have enough money, just load it, add more and ask to be bribed, i think all eleutheroi towns and anrmies can be bribed

Hope it works
