I recently started playing a pagan country and have really started to notice something that REALLY annoys me about this game. Being a pagan Kingdom, I am nearly constantly repelling and pushing back Christian invasions, nearly each and everytime I end up moving into their territory and taking a county or two to force them into surrender...
What do I get for that? NOTHING. Seriously, I am supposed to be happy with the fact they are a little embarrassed (lose prestige) and toss me a few coins? Im supposed to just pack up and go home to the pre-war lines like nothing happened? Its not a white peace... its a surrender. There should be a war score system like other paradox games so the player can get something out of it when they decisively win.
I know it's a little more complicated then that, with the claim system in this game, but I see no logical reason at all that we can not at the very least press claims (within reason) we do have during these defensive wars, or perhaps gain claims on the territory we did capture for future use. The way it currently works just feels incredibly unrealistic. Think about it... If England invaded France, and France won and pushed them back into the sea and took Normandy, would France just have given it back? Hell no.
