HRE reforms not working.

[Thorgrim54]

OK so im the Emperor, I have excellent relations with basically most of the electors but when I try and reform the HRE nothing happens except I lose influence and then the reform I'm trying to enact is still selectable when I have enough influence again. :So what am I doing wrong? Are they just not voting to accept it? Its the second reform btw, the AI did the first one under Bohemian rule before I bitch slapped them silly as Burgundy.

It doesn't pop up when a reform is declined.

Also, for reforms, it isn't just the electors voting, but the entire empire. This mean you will have to befriend at least half the empire before they'll let your reform pass

This helps:

Good relations, high prestige, low infamy. Trust modifies as well I think.

 

[Thorgrim54]

Well I get a pop-up every single time so clearly I need to be more friendly...even though I don't know how i could be.Is there any indicator that it does work? I guess i better start spending some gold and sending gifts. Thanks for your help.

Expanding your sphere of influence and getting more vassals are always efficient ways to make friends for me

Should think about every offer vassalization in the HRE lowers your relations with all though.

It does? I don't play enough

Any diplo vassalizing of an HRE member is a -25 relations hit with all other members, failing only incurs a penalty with the target nation. Diplo annexing a member also adds a -25 to any other relations hit (so your HRE member vassals drop by 125 instead of 100).

The day you ask for a reform to be voted upon, the vote occurs. If you scroll through the event log, you can see how every HRE member voted. If the reform passed, you get a pop-up with a notification about the Diet of (Somewhere) about 3 days after the vote. If the reform was voted down, there is no pop-up, but you can still count the votes for and against in the event log, so you get an idea of who to increase relations with.

Is it one vote per state in the HRE, or is it one vote per province so that the big states have several votes?

One vote per nation

Unless you are human somehow because when AI Emperor wants to pass reforms you get the popup but when you vote the reform is alreay done or neglected. I always hate that

If i am not emperor - nor i want to become emperor, i tend to force him to revoke reforms. Just to annoy him, and get prestige.

Check out http://www.paradoxian.org/eu3wiki/Imperial_Reforms for some information about what makes a country likely to vote yes.
Some key points;
Keep your infamy below 10% of your limit!
Keep relation above 0, preferably above 150!
Be the same religion!
Have a royal marriage!

if youre not the emperor, you cant even ask them to vote.

large HRE nations tend to vote against you, even with positive relations.
