Ethiopia Anti-Colonialism Decisions

[Bread-kun]

So when picking that focus and getting the decision tree, the only option that pops up I can click on is the one to support South Africa. When hovering hover the Decisions button it says I Have 20 something decisions about supporting independance of a ton of states but they don't -actually- appear in the decisions tab despite the pop up saying they exist.

Anyone know what the issue is or, what I might have to do?

Hi Bread,
It seems like the anti-colonial decisions don't appear in the decisions tab; instead, they appear directly on the map and cost command power to activate.

Yo which DLC do you need to see these? I can't see them on my playthrough.

That would be the most recent expansion as of writing, By Blood Alone:

Although this DLC is not without controversy!

Yes they appear on the map. Be aware though that they are a bit finicky, there is a trick to making them work. Do the one where you spend cp to make resistance rise for like 2 years. Look at the provinces carefully and wait til the resistance stops rising. THEN give them the guns and they will rebel. If you give them the guns too early then when the resistance hits the cap it wont rise higher and the rebellion won't kick off. Also the resistance needs to pass the threshold in ALL required states, so while you are looking at the province check which nation has a core on it, and then make sure that you raise the resistance in all of that nations cores and give them the guns all at once when they are ALL at the resistance cap. This will push them all over the threshold at the same time and the civil war kicks off

Also beware that the colonial powers will try to retake it and likely succeed. You can spend political power to get them to back down and leave it alone. Portugal tends to agree since they arent that strong, and France sometimes does after Germany capitulates them, but the UK almost never does. If they refuse you can invite the rebel into your faction and fight to defend them but that will put you at war with strong enemies so make sure you can handle it. You will likely need to incite rebellions one after another until all of Africa has risen up, then defeat any remaining colonial forces and defend the ports and the chokepoint at the Suez canal while you integrate all the African states and build up enough to fight. In any case make sure you liberate all the portugese colonies first and don't invite them into any wars you fight. Also good luck getting South Africa to switch sides, you will have to fight them probably.

After going little further in the support anti-colonialist resistance path, it is showing a rifle symbol with 1000 in red colour written. Clicking on it nothing is happening. Any idea what to do?
