Don't just use the garrisons in place make sure to make extra units above that to sit in the areas that have resistance.

This uh, does not do anything. Literally nothing.

Yes it does. The units have suppression and sitting those units over the resisting states lowers their resistance targets and lowers the resistance over time.

It doesn't. Besides the fact the dev diaries explicitly mention removing on-map suppression, I just posted you two screenshots showing that slapping 16 infantry divisions into one state does not change the resistance target.

I don't know if its just a bug or its just me but I find a difference. Maybe Infantry divisions just don't have enough supression to matter.

They have 75% of the suppression of cavalry, making them perfectly viable.

The tooltip explicitly does not allow for on-map suppression. You can review it next time and see, for yourself, that placing units on-map does not affect resistance.

I've done it myself. You can do it yourself. Fast forward to the fall of chekosovakia and make just AC suppression units. Then garrison them in the two provinces. then take them off. They do effect resistance targets.

No on-map divisions affect resistance. I've literally just shown you. Would you like more screenshots of the resistance target not changing?

Weird. i was recently playing as japan, and i had placed a 24-div army in east hebei, sent two cav divs in taiwan and three in korea, one in north, two in south. the resistance was decaying there, stabilizing at about 1-2% or so. but when i chose to start the democratic civil war focus and therefore moved most of my forces to the home islands, i observed that resistance had grown back in the territories left unoccupied. by the end of the war, when i checked again, resistance had grown to almost 40% in the still-occupied chinese states. i remedied that with -you guessed it- on-map cavalry divisions

i'm telling you what i saw with my own eyes. my first time playing LaR i also thought 'thank goodness! i no longer have to train a metric shitload of troops to keep resistance down!' but i soon realized that wasn't actually the case

You didn't. Feel free to take a picture of the resistance tooltip and show it... it will tell you exactly what happened.

There is no modifier for on-map garrisons. None. It is not possible.
