If I'm at war with country A (war leader) & country B, I occupy EVERYTHING, then sometimes I can take the capital of country B in a peace deal, sometimes I cannot, what decides this?

Capital can only be seized in Full Annex or if it completely isolated (has no owned connecting provinces).

under certain situations, you can also take capital if the nation is not warleader (in a coalition war maybe?), and you occupy all that country's provinces.

the other possibility is you are allowed to take capital if the nation is <100% warscore to annex. But I'm not sure, would need to test this..

So if the nation is <100% warscore to full annex I can just take the capital but not the other provinces? That would explain the problem in my current situation if so.

First point is great, I forgot about that. I don't think the second is true, though.

I am referring to the nation that isn't war leader here but it's not a coalition war. I'll have to wait till I can take the capital in a different war and see what the difference is I guess.
