What are some ways I can reduce my Tyranny

[Myrmidon]

Alright, so I got Rome to become a dictatorship. But now my Tyranny is at 75 with a reduction of only 0.04/month... thats gonna take over 150 years to get back to 0.

Any solutions?

So there are some inventions that lower tyranny slowly. Its one of those things your supposed to be very careful about raising though as it does take a long time to go back down so at 75 (which is huge) its going to take a very long time to drive it back down.

Its better not to get it up in the first place.

Best way to keep it down is to take your time. This game does not encourage steamrolling.

Yeah pretty much just tech reducing (innovations) or the dictator can have a character trait sometimes, if your lucky that has a -0.05% for tyranny or something I think, you might get events for it as rome? not sure, but if they did they would be similar %'s per month, it's the same for aggressive expansion you have to manage it, rather than gather it.

Damn, the only way to make Rome a dictatorship requires you to get a truck load of Tyranny... I hope the devs add some ways to decrease it in the future cuz right now this seems to be a bit out of balance.

If your ruler dies then the Tyranny should be reduced significantly because it does not make sense for the my 70 year old cruel dictator to die and be replaced by a 16 year old and still be considered a tyrant.

I would not call it ridiculous because it makes perfect sense to have a measure of how out of wack your ruler is, but I have to say that the current mechanic needs to be balance a bit with how easy it is to get it compared to reducing it.
