Millenium State's 'Remilitarization' Update Adds Covert Wars, Radiation Research, and Riot Police

Developer not_pir4t_user has outlined what arrives in Millenium State: Path of Hegemony on August 16, 2026, under the banner of the first "Remilitarization" update.

What changed

Radiation & Research

• A new unit, the Liquidator-Researcher, is added to the game and must be equipped via a newly constructed Research Center building.
• Chernobyl receives the designation "Radiation-Specific Region," unlocking a new interaction tied to this unit.
• The Liquidator-Researcher has two actions: researching a contaminated zone (Chernobyl or any region struck by a nuclear warhead), which can trigger 6–7 distinct discoveries affecting resources and political indicators; and clearing a region's radiation background, restoring so-called "Dead Zones" to a functional state.

Proxy & Covert Warfare

• Players can now send unmarked units to fight on behalf of a third-party nation in any war, not only civil conflicts.
• This operates at two scales (available at geopolitical status 1, "State-Entity"): an operational level (1 unmarked infantry formation) and a strategic level (3 infantry formations plus 1 tank division).
• International legitimacy reduces the cost and friction of these covert deployments.

Internal Security

• A new mechanic covers protests and police operations, introducing an action called "Special Police Operations to Stabilize the Region." Each operation carries a chance-based outcome — though the source text is cut off before the full details are given.

Taken together, the update layers covert geopolitical maneuvering and domestic crisis management onto the existing framework, giving players more indirect levers alongside the new nuclear-zone utility.
