How do I get to 100% warscore if I got all the countries provinces sieged I thought that was enough to get it? Seems I have to siege every last holding?

Whole country sieged and no 100%:

Generally you get to 100% by sieging all the holdings in provinces owned by the target of the war and the war goal. You usually don't need to bother sieging down their vassals.

I just read in Dev Diary that the tributaries are supposed to end if one of the rulers dies, yet in my game it didn't end. Was this changed in some patch or is it a new bug ?

To emphasize what brifbates is saying here: The map you have shown is not 100% of the kingdom occupied. It is 100% of the top holdings of the kingdom. These things are not the same. Nor are they the same as 100% warscore, which you can normally get without doing either.

It was changed so that if you make someone a tributary it last until you die.

Can I press the claim of a wife of one of my sons when I already landed him with some title?
The wife has to be at my court right and there is no way to get her to my court or is there?

I am unsure if I should land one of my sons because of that.

 

[Dragatus]

You can press claims for both courtiers and vassals. Maybe even for anyone in your realm, but I'm not entirely sure about that. However, if someone is neither your vassal nor your courtier you won't be able to press their claim, even if they are married to a child of yours.

does anyone know which letters/numbers in the "portrait" part of the character you need to touch to change your guy's clothes and headgear without messing something else up? like for example, mine has "0c00mc0000000"

Culture flips happen based on the culture of the province owner. If the owner of the province has high Stewardship they happen faster. If a province was conquered in holy war that also speeds up cultural conversion.

Religion flips are not automatic. They happen by having a Court Chaplain Proselytize in the province. AI characters will also use their own Court Chaplain to Proselytize in any provinces they own (starting with the capital) as well as in the provinces of their vassals (once they've fully converted their personal demesne).

However, single province counts may not have a Court Chaplain. The AI seems to prefer giving Court Chaplain position only to temple vassals and close family members, but will use them for other jobs first if it doesn't have enough other vassals. So if you're creating a new count, he'll generally need to have 4 other vassals (of any type) in addition to a temple vassal in order to reliably have a Court Chaplain. If you set up a new duke, he'll be able to call both on the baron tier vassals of his provinces and his vassal counts for jobs, so they usually do have a complete council.

Fantastic. Thank you very much for the in-depth answer.

CyberianK - I can't see by your screenshot but I'd guess the ruler might have some allies too. This can cause problems getting to 100% warscore, but also causes problems when you're at 100% warscore and he wont give up. In this case you will need to start taking over some of the allies holdings.

For anyone in your realm as well. At least, last time I checked it worked that way

 

[brifbates]

Yeah, you can press a claim for anyone in your realm. However, that doesn't necessarily mean the land will join your realm after you successfully do so.

Trying a Karen game and having some success. I want to holy war a nice independent muslim duchy but my council refuse to vote in favour of the war. They all are refusing as a favour to my father's brother who used to be on my council and someone called ghobad who I can assume was as well.

Why are they voting against me for people who are no longer are on the council?

Probably because Ghobad is related to the Muslim, is Muslim, or some other reason. I've had it happen where they owe favirs to people so they vote against me revoking those people's titles

You can press the claim of anyone in your realm, but unless the claimant is either of your dynasty or landed in your realm, and unless the sought title is lower-ranked than yours, the claimant will not become your vassal afterwards. It's still possible to have one of your vassals inherit control if they're in the succession, though.

But ghobad whoever he is and my uncle are no longer on the council. I removed my uncle when I realised he had 2 favours owed to him and ghobad is dead or fled as there's no one called that in my realm currently. So I'm asking why they're voting to repay a favour to people who are no longer on the council?

My last guess is Ghobad is a ruler who would lose land if you won the Holy War. Somehow he has a favor from your Councillors so they vote against making him lose land.

Other than that, no idea

If I, as the Fylkir of reformed Germanic faith, move my capital to a Jain province and destroy the Fylkirate - can I switch religions?

I've had this happen too and is super annoying. Someone returns a favor to an individual who is longer on the council. It gave council power to decide war declarations.

 

[Dragatus]

I believe giving council the ability to declare war is required to keep councilors out of factions, so that's one right you might actually want to give them yourself.
