Pressing claim wars against tributaries - WAD?

[Soilus]

It seems that after the latest patch, you can't press claim wars against tributaries anymore. This, combined with the fact that you can't "un-ally" with tributaries, is really annoying especially since it's not mentioned in the tooltip. Paradox, is this WAD? If so I respectfully propose that this feature should be looked at. Maybe a way to release your tributaries? Really sucks when you're playing on Ironman, spend most of your ruler's life fabricating a claim on a nearby county, spend a ton of money to use the fabricated claim, and then can't press it.

Can we please either bring back the ability to press claims against tributaries or, if that doesn't work with the way alliances are currently coded, give the option to release tributaries (remove alliance) so the claim can be pressed?

I was looking for a way to do this as well in one of my games. I think if they do introduce a way to release a tributary, it should come with a truce though. That way if you attack a former tributary right after releasing it, you'd be (rightfully) viewed as an untrustworthy oath-breaker.

I completely agree - you shouldn't be able to just wage war with no consequence. The old system was good about this, you could backstab an ally if you wanted but it would cost prestige, piety, maybe also infamy in the new build of the game would make sense. But not being able to do it at all is both frustrating and ruins the point of CK2 being a 'sandbox' where you can do all types of crazy/evil stuff that's realistic with the historical time period.
