I mostly don't pay attention to the battle history in wars, because I already know what battles I've been in and how they went. However, I've peeked at it a couple times recently, and I've noticed some oddities, to say the least.

Been in a war with Saxony over Nürnberg. Austria (who did control most of the HRE) and some German minors against France, me and my random vassals.
Two years into the war I controlled the Austrian part of Austria, Saxony and some other random provinces in the HRE. France got beaten back pretty bad though and Austria still fielded way over 100k men. My warscore was around 25% and since I wasn't sure if I could beat the Austrian doomstacks I thought it would be better to peace out. Well, I can't they I got the worst deal here:

BE8933E7805CFD776C102FA508C8265C5535AF2A


Styria alone has a warscore requirement of about 90%, I have no clue what so ever why Austria did this...

I had a similar peace deal with Austria (strangely enough, coming in my Poland game). At 100% WS, they released Styria, Tirol and as warleader made Brandenburg release Anhalt. When I added Anhalt, the warscore cost dropped to 52% and I couldn't add anything past 54% because it said the demands exceed the WS.

There used to be a bug on asking to release nations so that if you hit a certain number (I think it was 375%?) it would turn from rejecting it to accepting. It looks like a variant of that.

Meet the Wittlebach dynasty; A.K.A one of the most prolific families in Europe. Seriously, they almost run Europe entirely.

Rather than having a name like Urban VI, Innocentus III, or Pius XV, this Pope broke that rule with his long name.

Not that strange. In 1444 there are Wittelsbachs in charge of the Kalmar Union (Denmark, Sweden and Norway), Bavaria and the Palatinate, so only Poland and Pommerania have been added to the list since then. It's not like they've inherited France or anything.

Later on Lithuania was added, and then Russia came along too. These guys spread like wildfire.

I don't have pictures unfortunately but back in EU3 I let Sweden, my main ally, blob up in northern Europe as I wreaked havoc on western Europe as England. I think the Mongols smashed up the Russian states, and then instead of reforming, Sweden smashed them again. Anyway by the time I got over to east Asia and started colonizing north of Korea I came face to face with monster Sweden, the new Russia.

More recently in EU4 a Kongolese bishop in 1550 or so was quite strange.
