Peaceful annexing

[Octavian]

So is it possible to dissable peaceful annexing of vassals... It's really annoying seing minors being eaten quite easily be larger nations.

Regards!!

No, not directly. The same question has been asked before, and one suggestion was to make a random event that randomly releases nations as vassals, but that might not work.

I saw a thread a few months ago with a rather innovative idea by Judge: make some countries vassals of themselves, thereby preventing them from getting diploannexed. He reported that it worked well, incredibly as it might seem.

No, it works fine: I've used it a few times in a mod I'm working on to improve the AI of the vanilla game, notably on Bosnia and Bavaria who always end up diplo-annexed. It doesn't stop them RMing or joining alliances. It was either Havard or Daywalker who first discovered the vassal command could make a country vassalise itself - I asked a question on the modding forum and Judge tried it out and it worked.

That's really quite an interesting idea, but don't the income and manpower numbers go a bit weird, if the overlord gets half of his vassals manpower and half of his vassals income in an ever increasing spiral? Or am I just being too pessimistic.
