On a couple occasions, I've sent my region's resistance out against spies. They've then been wiped out, leaving me with a region with zero resistance fighters in it, no adviser, no way to assign an adviser and no income or intelligence.
Is there a way to get a region that you've contacted back from zero? Is there a way to start re-building it?

Re: Region Recapture
You're supposed to be able to assign an advisor to bootstrap the resistance there. If you can't then it's a bug.Jammer Six wrote:On a couple occasions, I've sent my region's resistance out against spies.

If nobody is there then it's normal that you don't have income or intelligence.

Re: Region Recapture
My question was is there a way to re-start production when there's nobody there?
After you lose a battle with the Faceless, and everyone is dead, is it possible to rebuild? If so, how?

Re: Region Recapture
Assign a new soldier as adviser. Soldier advisers contribute to the Recruit job in addition to searching for Faceless.Jammer Six wrote:My question was is there a way to re-start production when there's nobody there?

It will be slow going at first, but you will begin to regain new rebels.
Also, take note of this new change in 1.5:
So you can now just ignore Rendezvous missions and the Faceless spies will still be removed from your haven. The drawback is that you're passing on one of the relatively few missions that provides corpses, which can be critical in the early game. You may want to for this recovering haven anyway, though, so you can continue to build up (legit) rebels without risking them dying again.1.5 patch notes wrote: - Faceless on the rendezvous mission are removed from the haven even if the mission expires. This allows them to be skipped quickly if desired, but no XP, loot, or corpses are granted.
The change was made to avoid the tedium of dealing with Rendezvous in the late game, when you don't really need the corpses and these missions just slow the game down (but you previously wouldn't want to skip them because you want to root out faceless spies.)
Re: Region Recapture
Assign a soldier as an adviser and he will eventually recruit a rebel. It might take about a month though, so be patient.
There is no way to transfer rebels from other regions.

Re: Region Recapture
You can't assign an adviser to a region that has no resistance fighters.
Re: Region Recapture
You used to be able to. That sounds like a bug. Can you post your savegame in the bugs forum?

Re: Region Recapture
What happens when you try? Do you get an error message that says something about "an active mission in the region" or something like that? There's a mechanic that disallows moving your advisor around if there is a retal or a rendezvous detected in the region. If there is no retal or rendezvous detected, and you're getting that message, then it's likely a bug.Jammer Six wrote:You can't assign an adviser to a region that has no resistance fighters.
Re: Region Recapture
I actually had a situation during 1.4 where I lost all resistance personnel from a region because I didn't understand retaliations properly at that point. I was able to put soldier there as advisor and it took quite a while until I got first new resistance fighter there. So if you can't do it now it must be bugged somehow.
