2.2.0.6. Viceroyalties destroying and creating titles?

[nestorius]

For some reason and this happens in two ways my viceroyal kings are destroying my viceroyal duke titles and recreating them as non viceroyal titles. In addition I am seeing that viceroyals dukes in my viceroyal kingdoms are become standard dukes.

Yeah, I've seen that, too. Somehow the viceroys (king level) manage to usurp and destroy duchies from their vassals to re-create them. Maybe they are able to revoke the only county a viceroy-duke has and manage to destroy it that way. Weird.

You are correct - Viceroys seem keen to gather a demense and they can revoke the last county held by another Viceroy, the title is then destroyed and can be recreated.

Presumably they're doing it via plot.

Servancour talked to the devs about this and yeah, it's somewhat nasty, but currently WAD.
