Just a question as to what might happen:

I'm in a situation where I am the senior partner in a PU. The junior's tooltip says I will inherit their country on the next monarch death. But they have a vassal (they vassalized one of my allies while we were having the succession war). So what will happen to the PU partner and/or to the vassal?

Junior partners aren't suppose to be able to have vassals what I know, the vassalige will break anyow I think. But I would like to see screenshot of that vassal =P.

I played it out and when the monarch died, I inherited the junior and the vassalage broke. Oddly enough, even five years later, the former vassal hasn't made any new allies... I wonder if the country is broken. What did you want a screenshot of, specifically?

I was just hoping it wouldn't prevent the inheritance, as the junior was an elector and I was trying to get their vote. Ended up not mattering, because I spontaneously inherited a different elector 34 days earlier (direct inherit, no PU).

Hi,
I'm sure this sort of thing doesn't harm your chances of inheritting a PU junior, I've seen this in a few of my games, & it can actually be a good thing, as your PU junior might diplo-annex their vassal, so giving you a an extra region or three when you do ultimately inherit.
