[2.3.3 DAQH - Ironman mode] Demand Installation of Claimant doesn't trigger a war

[Mirco]

Hello,

I play CK II with all major DLCs including Way of life. As a count of Smyrna I started a faction to replace my current liege Strategos of Samos with his brother (whom I managed to betroth matrilinealy to my daughter). In my intrigue screen I get the option "Demand installation of Claimant". I click it and thus send my liege an ultimatum. The liege refuses, which should start a war. Except that it doesn't. Instead I get the option to "Demand installation of Claimant" AGAIN. Also, my personal screen shows that I have a CB "Claim Samos" stipulating that in the case of a victory, my claimant will become the ruler of the Samos Theme. Yet, when I try to declare war on my liege, the only war option is "Independence" with different set of results.

Now, is this an unfortunate consequence of any of the following...?

1. Samos is a theme and not a duchy
2. The liege, Strategos of Samos, is a minor and a regent governs instead of him
3. The claimant is a minor

In any case, it should be handled differently than with a repeating "Demand installation of Claimant" cycle, I believe.

Been reported before. You shouldn't be able to start the faction because it is a vice-royalty. All the other factions were stopped from being created, but this one slipped through the cracks.

Hello,

"All the other factions were stopped from being created". I am using 2.3.3 DAQH iron mode, playing the Tulunid dynasty, I keep having faction led or followed by vice-roys. Currently I have 5 vice-roys split over Africa.

Once I even had the Vice-roy turned directly to a Sultan. Fortunately my major crown authority allowed me to request to cancel his title, he declined I had to go on a war against his 15000 troops. Fortunately I was able to blow him with money and mercenaries.

I appreciate all the Paradox CK2 DLC and updates but I really see bugs (480 hours of gaming today)

Regards,

Guillaume

The quote you quoted is out of context. The factions that were stopped, were those of vassals of vice-royalties not vice-royalties themselves from creating a faction.

Known issue, it's already added to the internal database.
