Revoking Trick

[unmerged(75851)]

I'm sure I'm probably not the first to notice this but, in order to revoke a title from a vassal...

If I just take my capital regiment and park it over the territory I want to revoke then demand to revoke it then they will usually cave in.

Have a desmene that borders his.

Have a great reputation

Be prestigious.

Have claims on his titles

Spam spam spam.

Also, to revoke, keep your loyalty from a vassal at 51 or higher.

Are two provinces connected by trade route considered to share a border in a vassalization context?

 

[jordarkelf]

Yes.

Spam spam spam.

I've found that's not really needed. Anyone who'll accept to be your vassal will ask you to accept them by themselves sooner or later anyway.

Not really.

Neighboring Counts who aren't in your natural duchy will never offer to join your Empire. But if you spend a year or two sending them 20-30 vassalization offers they will eventually say yes.

Especially if you send a small gift before you ask.

I usually use the "spam spam spam" trick but I wonder if this method could be considered an exploitation...

It could be. I prefer to see it as a long negotiating process.

But who cares?

You're playing the game to have fun, and spamming to get vassals is fun.

Actually, my trick only seems to work on 2.1 the earliest. (current Mac version) On an updated Windows version with all the patches I'm not having as much luck getting vassals to pony up their titles.

That is a mater of opinion i guess ...

I prefer to ask politely once ... if not accepted, I find it more fun to move my large army into his lands to "persuade" him to become a good little vassal

But even a one-prov Duke can spam 5-10 Counts at once. You got to be important to conquer 5-10 Counties at once.
