From what I've noticed Pu's can now form without Royal marriages. I've seen a PU war between Castile and Austria over France with neither being married to them (pretty sure it's about prestige). Your dynasty could also have spread around from other people.
Succession wars seem crazy common now for some reason. I saw a succession war between Castille and France over the throne of Burgundy last night, even though France had both Castille and Burgundy set as rivals and didn't have a RM with either one.
(France won and got all of Burgundy, they're rampaging across Europe now and I don't think anyone can stop them short of Russia or the Ottomans.)

Yep. Just had a game where Austria got Aragon and Denmark in PUs without royal marriages to either, fortunately Naples and Norway/Sweden already broke free otherwise I probably would've just started a new game.
so, as it stands now, its like you have a RM with the hole world in regards of getting pu, but they did not nerf the PU rate ?
hmm not seeing this in my game so far. Its actually really hard to intentionally get the same dynasty with someone as RMs break now automatically with ruler deaths
RM's were always supposed to break upon ruler deaths. The fact that they didn't was a bug.
I was always a fan of PU based game play in Europa. It was hugley OP in the early release of EU4 with the Claim Throne CB. However I do believe it was nerfed too far. If it's had a boost up again I'm happy.
as savoy, i got PU over austria, france and castile, so i was the biggest pink blob ever
in my current game, france has PU with hungary and poland has PU with austria.
well i love that austria won't be a threat anymore but france is just scary

Austria and Bavaria fought a succession war for Russia's throne in my first 1.5 game. Good times. Austria won, but will never be big enough to integrate Russia into their country.
My first game using 1.5, Spain got a PU with both Portugal and Poland. Going to make for some rough going (as France) as we hit the 1670's. In fairness, I got a personal union with Scotland and I just recently inherited them(no integration). I thought about releasing them as a vassal, but for now owning their lands and armed forces will give me a leg up on England should they start getting too uppity in North America.
*shakes head slowly* Why would Paradox have thought it a bright idea to allow PU's to happen where RM's don't exist? I know this thread is not fleshed out yet and new but if the comments in here are true of the whole that is seriously a DUMB move. I haven't made comment on other threads because its subjective but allowing PU's without RM's is plain silly.
