Rebels & Threat Mechanic Explained
Rebels are like citizens that are unhappy & if their stats don't resplenish/requests met, they will become Geurilla
  • Rebel threat is caused by low Tropican Stats,low political support & low liberty
  • Just because you have rebel threat doesn't mean you'll get Geurillas fast
  • Rebels will become Geurillas if you don't replenish their stats in time, have very low faction support of one they are part of & if you issue kill order on their relatives
  • You can run full blown dictatorship and citizens won't become Geurilla if you keep them happy
  • You can check Almanac for liberty and you can see all building that reduce liberty, they increase liberty drain rate.
  • Rebel Threat will almost always be present on bigger population city (3.5-10k pop), just wait for them to refill their stats and they shouldn't turn Geurilla
  • The most likely citizen to become Rebel in late game is poor and broke, since they usually need poor and broke service buildings, you can get rid of homeless with Social Security edict, for the most part then things should be ok, Child Allowances stops well off from going to poor class
  • You can set military constitution to Pacifist State which reduces rebel threat build up by 75%, that's alot tho only downside is you won't be able to use Military to kill Geurillas
How to detect Rebels
The best role detector in game if you set it to Rebel recon
  • Rebel reconnaissance: The Overwatchtower focuses solely on uncovering rebels and rebel leaders, thus increasing their uncover chance, but reducing the chance to uncover other roles to 0%,
    Just set these up everywhere and youll uncover rebels in no time

Security Checkpoint
  • This will check cars that go trough road aswell as people passing, it only works if you don't have privacy rights in Constitution



Ministry of Information

Increases role uncover for all search buildings, unlocks arrange accident option,
It basically means a kill option but no rebels, if you use things like drone command to kill it will only cause more rebels to turn
Increases role uncover for all search buildings, unlocks arrange accident option,
It basically means a kill option but no rebels, if you use things like drone command to kill it will only cause more rebels to turn Geurilla so best way is to Arrange Accident,
If you have Total Surveilance in constitution Ministry Of Imformation will register rebels to database
Geurilla & Attacks Explained
Geurillas are Tropicans who didn't get their needs/demands replenished & moved to wilderness
they're the main reason why you keep getting attacks
  • Rebels don't attack buildings, only Geurillas do
  • If Rebel threat is atleast low there is a chance Geurillas will attack your infrastructure
  • They will target important buildings like power plants & Ministry, they might sometimes attack Palace
  • Attacks will only happen if there is atleast 2 Geurilla fighters.
  • Geurillas will convince Rebels to turn into them & will cause your Rebel Threat to spike up & down
How to get rid of Geurillas
Best way to get rid of Geurillas is Policy of Detente
  • Effects: Each rebel and leader has a chance of 50% to lose their role, Guerrillas have a chance of 50% to return to Tropican community, lower standing with conservatives by 15, This edict has a cooldown of 5 years,
    if you don't get good rng just save before enacting and reload save for better result
Geurilla patrol
  • Commandos assault the resistance, Number of Geurillas reduced by up to 5
  • This takes 6 months to complete, just spam it, if you go to in The Almanac and click target crosshair you can find Estimated Geurillas, once you get attacked or do patrol it will tell by random how many are left, if it says 0 to some number it's a clear sign there are no more Geurillas left on island
Provoking rebels with spy academy or letting them eventually attack you
  • The fastest and but trickiest way to kill them is too setup watchtowers near key structures like power, or relocate towers to target building and kill the Geurillas
  • You can use spy academy's provoke rebellion to make Geurillas attack you
    if they go to Palace just let the palace guards kill them
