Sorry if this has been discussed before, but I am only recently coming back to CKII after about a year long break.

So I am currently playing a game and am the King of Alania, and I have a claim for the Byzantine Empire, and have not yet pressed it. However, there is a revolt going on currently in the Byzantine Empire that is fighting to install me as their Emperor - they are fighting for my claim. I cannot tell how the war is going exactly because I am not involved in the war but it looks like it is about 50/50 right now. I cannot join the rebels who are fighting to install me as the new Emperor - which I guess I can understand from a game design point of view.

Now here is what I don't understand, the revolt is going on, and I decided to take advantage of the situation and help my cause by pressing my claim myself for the Byzantine Empire, however once I do that, the revolt ends and all those troops that were fighting to install me as Emperor suddenly become my enemy.

Not sure if this is as intended, and if so, if I should just wait it out?

Thanks for the help/advice!
 
A question - does the revolt actually end or is it simply them turning hostile due to similar wargoals? It might be that the revolt is still going on, but you're now hostile due to pursuing the same goal(nevermind that they're pressing your claim...).

The revolt ends - once I declare war to press my claim those rebels within the ERE who were revolting by pressing my claim become happy loyal subjects to the Byzantine Emperor.
 
I would fix this by allowing the player to join the civil war which presses his/her claim. If the rebels lose then the Emperor will throw you to the jail as well, you lose your claim and probably couple of body parts in the Byzantine way as well. I think that is a design flaw which should be repaired.

So this is as designed? I'd like to keep all my character's body parts :)
