How badly does the AI actually want to win the war? I got locked out of the leagues due to being at war when they were formed, and then pulled in by one of my allies (Spain, on the Protestant side). We easily won the war (I alone having twice the FL of the Catholic side), but Brandenburg, despite a 99% WS, preferred to peace out the members one by one for war reparations and take a few Bavarian provinces. Shouldn't the AI be more interested in passing the crown to a Protestant tag when they have achieved a complete victory?

They get +50 "war league" modifier due to "religious league war". So the war really needs to be won totally, and even then it's a waiting game till the defeated side would accept any bigger peace deal.

The AIs want war reparations. They ALWAYS want war reparations. Don't try to distract them with the imperial seat; there's reparations to be had!
