Well i used google before i asked, checked wiki and even asked on parodox forums. W8ing for reply there. I kind think that its a lost cause, and best what i can get is broke their union. Just wanted to check if anyone had this problem before and knows the answer.
Pathetic Greta hater.

Seems like a bug. I know 90% sure that if the union is not currently under you it won't suddenly get under you just by winning the war. Previously you had to select ''form union'' in the peace deal. If that's not an option then I don't know what's going on.

Yeah, if you are already at war it probally won't "update" your war and you are stuck with your old one, with the old wargoal.

problem is that you are already at war with the target of the PU (Aragon over Castille If I understood you correctly). The CB you used was Conquest, which does not give you the option to PU another country. Normally once you go to war (click on the popup) over the PU it will start another war, which would give you the option of PU'ing Castille. Since you are already at war with Aragon the game cannot simulate another war starting between the two countries, making the option to PU Castille unobtainable for you. Best you can do in this case is indeed to just break the PU between them.

TLDR: Succession war cannot start since you are already at war with Aragon --> No option to PU Castille

edit: dat ninja right above :/

So, i have a question here, because i am apparently missing a part of a puzzle here.

I am GB rather late in a game, it is ~1750. So i started doing random shit to see what happens. I conquered some shit in middle europe, and created a client state out of it. Then i conquered a lot more, and just gave the control of the sieges over to that client state and gave the provinces to them in a peace. Then i did the same thing a few more times. This client state is now ~ half of germany, with at most half of these provinces cored.

Now obviously, that is major overextension and i expected there to be shitloads of gigantic rebellions. And there were. So i crushed them. Then more i appeared. Which i also crushed. At which point all of that client states provinces had at least 1 stacks of "recent rebel uprising", some of them up to 7. All of them now had a 0 % revolt risk. And still the revolts kept on coming, and in absurdly large amounts. Why? I know that it is not overextension events, because none of those spawn 100k rebel stacks. It can't be normal revolts, since all of that client states provinces have a 0 % revolt risk due to recent uprising.

Apart from this being utterly unrealistic (I am pretty sure i killed most of the german population as rebels now), i also don't understand from the gamey logic why this happens. Apparently there are revolts which ignore revolt risk. Can someone shine a light on this?

working on an albania strategy - there's definitely a lot of multitask involved. however I found that you can loot Ottomans, and slow-siege Bosnia during the first war, increasing my war income by 60 ducats per year

of course certain mad wizards are trying to find a way to outright win the first war - can't wait to see the strat

It's pretty easy tbh, you no-CB the furthest of the two balkan guys (is it bosnia?), siege a prov before otto's, then otto's will get 99% and ask for just war reparations, which you accept, after which you continue beating up bosnia, serbia, ragusa etc during the truce. Also improve with Austria, Hungary and whoever else you want during the wars.

they don't immediately accept war reparations as far as I can tell, they 99%'d me and I couldn't get out of the war. Then they got mil access through serbia and stackwiped me in bosnia :/

Hmm, might just have been my luck then. In my game they just offered my war reps and I was like wtf I accept this is great. Then I ate all of the minors while having alliance with Austria, unfortunately then Saxony became emperor so my run was still pretty fucked, but the rest was fine.
Also, don't integrate your vassals until you enter the HRE cuz if you do, first of all your inflation will skyrocket and second of all you will be too big to enter the HRE.

yeah, I managed a suboptimal start (two provinces off Bosnia, then Ottomans will peace out ASAP since they can't core those lands). Going to gank Hungary asap to get in HRE.

oops, fked up the war against serbia so am trying to get this off the ground, again.

yeah, it seems very random whether bosnia gives MA to ottomans as well, in which case you are not in a good place.

here's my strat right now. I keep forgetting essential things like the scorching though so writing it down should help -.-:

1) scorch earth in albania, recruit 1 merc, assign skanderbeg to main stack. Take religious unity mission and surrender to orthodox zealots ASAP. if fort defense advisor is available, take one.
2) upon completion of merc, DOW bosnia + get MA from serbia. One diplomat to improve relations with Austria, one fabricates on Ragusa. Rush your troops to bosnia cap ASAP.
3) ideally battle in bosnia leaves you with 3k or more troops - if so, consolidate and split 2k to siege donji, 1 stack (whatever size) to stomp on recruiting units, 1 stack to loot Ottomans. cancel MA with serbia upon your looting army reaching Vidin (to maximize looting)
4) Loot Vidin -> Tarnovo -> Silistria -> Burgas -> Plovdiv -> Edirne -> Macedonia -> Thessaly -> Sofia -> Vidin. Multitask is making sure bosnia cannot recruit anymore (1 day siege is sufficient). Also dips should improve relations with Austria / Poland.
5) If Ottomans siege Albania, you can only loot the 5 provinces east of Sofia, trying to move to any other provinces provokes an immediate ottoman response
6) take Donji Kraji and Hum, recruit mercs there to hide your money from Ottomans. Ideally they should peace out for Albania and no money.

Trying to work out whether I can headshot Ragusa as well in this timespan. but since ottomans get MA from Ragusa this is extremely risky.

Anyways, looting ottomans leaves you with no loans and 100 ducats in the bank after this. So I think its worth it.

Yeah, that is random. Also in 1480 I now have 13% inflation with having a inflation reduction guy the whole time.

I would have bolded the Nation Designer and the Treat of Tordesillas. Those seems like the most interesting features to me xD. EU4 is still the only game that I have no qualms for about purchasing DLC.

Hmm, I took only Donji and then vassalized the rest. Also instead of looting I sieged two provinces at the same time in Bosnia, after clearing stacks for a month or 3. (to get them to peace out faster and faster conquest of ragusa/serbia)
Besides that, I don't think you should scorched earth, because you need the money and you'll still siege first if everything goes according to plan.

Looting is 60 ducats an year, and while its true that you risk getting truly horrific war exhaustion if you don't siege down Bosnia fast enough, I do value not having to take loans while fighting Serbia (you could in theory rely on Skanderbeg and go in very outnumbered but attacking into a 2-cav flank is still risky, and Serbia can afford 8k guys pretty easily).

Scorch earth for extra defensiveness is better for consistency imo (I was able to siege 2 provinces consecutively faster than they took albania as a result) - you're making 10x time Albania's starting income by looting anyways.

Hmm, I had to take out one loan in the whole run, so while yes, looting is very good, imo sieging faster and having a stack to clear bosnia's small stacks is more valuable.

bosnia will cancel building troops on any province sieged for a day. So I take the smallest consolidated unit and constantly move it onto the unsieged provinces, causing them to continuously cancel stuff (and lose money since past 10% they only get half back). With proper play you can prevent a single stack from spawning.
