Independence war Moldavia

[botho]

Hi,

I cored some provinces in Poland and Lithuania(PU there), but when declaring war I had no conquest option eventhough i had the CB's.

I finally declared war for independence, but I cannot take any land without declaring independence. Any reason for that, or did I do something wrong?

Thanks

Nothing wrong with what you're seeing. As a subject, you can only have the Independence CB on your overlord. And you can't take anything from your overlord without declaring independence since plenty of patches ago.

That's how it works. You're a vassal of Poland and have to demand independence as part of the peace deal before you can require the provinces you've fabricated claims on. It used to be possible to just take provinces in a independence war and still be a junior partner/vassal afterwards, but it was an exploit to grow rapidly with AE while still being protected by your overlord

I remember eating half of Brabant as Holland this way, while still being under a PU with Burgundy

You can thanks DDRJake for that on his Mzab run. He abused it and got patched out in the next patch.

That was a hilarious run though

Ah okay. I had a look at https://eu4.paradoxwikis.com/Dracula's_Revenge ; I will look into updating it then.
Thank you
