(HTT)Why is King of Bohemia no longer neither HRE emperor nor elector in 1399?

He still is Emperor in my game but no elector, which might be a design change so the Emperor cant vote for himself anymore, dont know TBH.
WTF...loaded up another game to test, and now its Hungary in my game too...very strange.
Arent both "von Luxemburg" ??? Perhaps the HRE is assigned to the dynasty i the code and thus alters. Has to be fixed then. And while at it they should make the attributes of Vaclav worse, too good for someone who was abdicted ;-) for "being a lazy git".
Historically, the King of Bohemia was indeed also a prince elector. If I'm reading it right, 1399 was a period of interregnum between two Luxembourg rulers, who ruled Luxembourg and Bohemia. And it was kind of that way in IN, so I'm guessing this one is in fact a bug.
Really? Holy sandbox game, Paradox scares me more and more from release to release... tell me you are lying..please...
Wenceslas/Vaclav IV of Bohemia, King of the Romans from 1376 to 1400, was the half-brother of Sigismund of Hungary - both were of the House of Luxemburg (sons of the great Imperial reformer Charles IV). Duke of Bavaria's assumption is therefore a plausible one - perhaps the game works out the Emperor in the starting configuration based on family name (von Luxemburg) rather than nation.
EDIT: It's worth adding that the title "King of the Romans" was not the same as that of Holy Roman Emperor (which required papal coronation, amongst other things). There was no actual Emperor in 1399, which falls within the prolonged interregnum between the death of Charles IV and the election then eventual coronation of Sigismund. However, the game does not allow for this distinction, since there is always an emperor (and he is always emperor in his capacity as ruler of a country, whereas in reality things were more nuanced).

You seriously always want everything to be exactly historical? If, and note the if, they have put some randomness into the starting Emp it makes for an interesting change.
The starting points of the game should be historical yes. Youd think paradox would of learned via the disaster that is HOI3 and im guessing soon to be victoria 2.
I guess you wouldnt oppose having House Harkonnen rule either...well i have different preferences...
Screen from my AAR.
And this is 1399? Scary
What is that strange elector there? Meissen?
Going to be now with this as the highlight of a very unsatisfying HTTT release day.
In IN the emperor at the start changed if you changed to another bookmark and then returned to an earlier one, if I remember correctly. Maybe this could be the cause?
HoI3 had historical starts, so I'm not sure what you're getting at.
Yes. Being ok with a different powerful european country starting as the Emperor is exactly the same as being ok with wanting House Harkonnen and laser guns in EU. That was a well thought out and reasonable reply
Alternate response: zomg, u want history = read a book!!!1
Seriously though, the game isn't on rails. It's a strategy game with a historic setting, it's not a simulation nor a reenactment. Given that, it doesn't seem unreasonable to slightly vary the starting condictions if indeed that is the case and this isn't a bug. Perhaps we could find out if this is even intended before you jump on your high horse.
Why would it not be a bug though? In the Demo Austria is always the HRE, and the electors always stay the same.
