No Pragmatic Sanction for player. WAD?

[Sabra]

So, very strange thing happen to me, I am playing Austria, and i had old Emperor without heir, he died and noble from Habsburg succeded throne, well its badass Maria Theresia 4/6/6, but problem is, Commonwealth got elected to Emperor, which means i am pretty fucked, because its only 3% IE to get to Erbakaisertum, and obviously if they gonna proclaim it, i lost Emperor forever...
So my question is, getting female ruler is pretty bad, i thought Pragmatic Sanction should fire for Austria (i am pretty sure it did some of my previous games). Btw I am so unlucky since AoW released, first i got PUed by France during my Spain game and then this

Fairly certain pragmatic sanction only fires if you have a female heir in waiting. As in, because your ruler hapened to be female after having no heir, no sanction.

And yeah that does seem to make you prety boned.

I think it only triggers when you have a female heir. In this case, technically, you didn't have one.

I might have workaround, if i release loads of vassals in HRE, they should NEVER vote for reform if i dont want either, correct?

Don't think that's how it works. I just finished a commonwealth game in which my vassal Magedeburg voted for Revoke the Privelegia despite the fact they were my vassal and actually became Austria's vassal instead.

You can force them to revoke reform and claw your way back in there.

Why were you voting on Commonwealth?

Why were you voting on Commonwealth?

I think it automatically switches to the current emperor if your previous vote becomes ineligible.

Yeah its just screenshot, when i clicked HRE interface, obviously i changed it, but I cant vote for myself.
