I started a new byzantium game today for 1.5 however when I did the standard vassalize Albania gambit to get a truce with the Ottomans I inherited their war but was unable to peace out with the ottomans when I looked at the reason for this I determined it was because I was unable to cancel either of my vassals looking through the patch notes I didn't see any mention of this. Is this intended because if it is it makes the Byzantium start significantly harder.

Were your vassals occupied by the Ottomans? Maybe they added that requirement to being able to demand it.
No they weren't and if they added that requirement that will mean the ottomans will get too much war-score before I can peace them out to just peace them out with cancelling vassals and giving money.
Well that'd be the most logical explaination to me. I always force vassal releases if i couldn't be bothered to siege a lot of land, since you don't need to for it which made it a quick and easy way to weaken a nation.
Too bad about your game though.
Too bad about your game though.
Not sure what you guys are seeing, but it works fine for me (Tested both Byzantium, and Venice as a result of another thread):
It seems to be based on inheriting a vassal's war try vassalizing Albania as the Byzantines then see what your peace deal options are.
OK I see it. Raised a bug: [1.5.0] Inheriting war does not allow Offer Tribute Cancel Vassal or Release Nation
Also worth noting that even if they siege through the vassal's provinces you still can't release vassals the only thing you can give seems to be revoking cores as well as provinces and conceding defeat money and trade power.
