A little help needed. Playing France and trying to break into the Congo. Have CP at 35 for all three coastal provinces. Landed a colonial brigade and military control is 100% Nobody, sat for 12 turns and a prosecute mission and the MC never changed. I looked for someone to declare war on without finding a suitable host.

How do you start to build your facilities and such without MC? How do you get MC in the Congo?

Thanks.

Known bug.
Should hopefully be fixed next beta.

Thanks.

So, there really isn't anyway to "peaceably" colonize a country? You have to go to war with the natives? Like Madagascar and Annam?

Not at all.
You can make them a protectorate by getting 35% CP in all their areas and, in the end having an army in their capital.
If you want to rule them, though, yeh, you have to conquer them.
