If the Japanese player chooses the historical path to the Meiji Restauration, each major event chain increases the Rebel loyalty throughout all mainland provinces. After Ii Naosuke is assassinated in 1860, this Rebel loyalty reaches 100% everywhere. This means that the player can no longer recruit any troop nor build any ship for several years afterwards.
Basically, I'm stuck with what I have until the Meiji restauration happens.
Is there a way to manage this by decreasing Rebel loyalty in Japanese provinces? I tried garrisons, MP units, cavalry, decreasing militancy... but none of these bring that Rebel loyalty down.
Thanks!
