Confederate bug with characters joining?

I confederated Liu Bei as Cao Cao and got him and Zhang Fei, but strangely Guan Yu was missing.

Looking at him in the all Characters tab from Court, he still has Liu Bei's flag, but all his items are greyed out.

Loading a save from a turn earlier to check, Guan Yu was on farm Assignment for Liu Bei when I confederated. Is this a known bug? Characters on Assignment during confederation kind of get stuck in a limbo forever? I kept passing Turns to see what happens but Guan Yu remained in that state.

Help with using Cao Cao's positive Credibility Schemes midgame

Kind of suffering from success after restoring the Han as I find myself unable to use some of the Schemes that increased Credibility. Need some help in activating these Schemes!

Character

  1. Flatter The General - have character with Salary greater than 300

I have a total of 40% salary reduction from the Reform tree, but my highest ranked characters have salaries of only 69 Gold. Is it bugged?

  1. Knowledge of the Ambitious - have character with less than 10 Satisfaction

I have huge amounts of Satisfaction from Liu Xie & Court Position staff bonuses, even those with -60 Desire higher position combined with -30 from other malus still have like 80 Satisfaction....

Faction

The two Faction ones (free Reform & +20 Relations) I can use off cooldown.

Commandery

  1. Tiger over the Mouse - have Commandery with Public Order below 0

Again, the huge bonuses to Public Order I already have makes it impossible to get, even with Taxation jacked up to maximum. I probably can build the Peasant building that reduces PO, but it will still take many turns to get it negative.

  1. Trapped Fish above the Retreating Tide - have Commandery with decreasing reserves

How do I accomplish this? I have high positive food.

Army

  1. Hawk & Tiger Manouever - can use this off cooldown

  2. Arrows from the Enemy - Force is at or below 25 military supplies

Do I just create a army and let it walk around in March stance until the supplies run out?

A couple of questions about playing as Restored Han Liu Xie in 190 start

Playing as Cao Cao, captured Chang An and immediately became King from the Prestige. Chose to restore the Han.

Liu Xie's skill bonuses are pretty powerful, but he can only go on Assignments. Is there any way to level him up faster? From what I read he usually starts at level 7, but he started at 5 for me. I have level 5 Schools in many of my cities already.

There is one Title in the Imperial Court that requires a relative to fill. Liu Xie's Family Tree is empty, is there a way for the Cao clan to become kin with him?

I think I had two daughter births rather early in 191, 192. Will they come of age eventually and be marriageable to Liu Xie? Or is Cao Cao's family tree gone since he is no longer my Faction leader? Cao Pi, my default heir who has not come of age yet, still shows as Liu Xie's heir.

Faction Council in the 10/15 Turns Per Year mods

I'm trying out the 10 Turns Per Year mod.

Started in 190 and played a couple of turns until Spring then Save, and activated the mod then Load game.

But I realised that later, I was getting two Faction Councils per year in the two turns of Spring.

Is this the same experience of other players who have tried this mod? Will 15 Turns Per Year give three Faction Councils then?

Unable to load game (missing DLC error)

I received Total War 3K for free on Epic and have been playing it a little recently.

I have the free DLC (Tao Qian, Shi Xie and 1 more) installed since the beginning.

Yesterday the fibre broadband at my house went out for a day, so I played it with the Epic Launcher offline. Today the connection was restored, but whenever I try to load my save, it is grey out with a missing DLCs error.

If I go to New game I can select Tao Qian and Shi Xie, which means the DLC are enabled?

How do I make the game recognise that I have DLC installed on Epic? Clicking the "DLC" button in the game's main menu does nothing at all.
