What's the War Goal for ticking Warscore when defending against a Revolt for Elective Monarchy?
I'm currently stuck in an endless stalemate where I and the attacker just keep trading counties.
I've already taken the Leader's Capital.
As far as I can tell, the CB that's used in this war is probably change_feudal_elective_succession_law. And this CB has no provision for ticking warscore. So I believe there is no way to get ticking warscore.
(As far as I can tell, ticking warscore occurs if a contested title is fully occupied, or if attacker/defender_unoccupied_warscore = yes. The latter aren't specified in the CB code, and there's no obvious contested title (except perhaps your primary title?).)

You're going to have to win this the hard way - my suggestion: defeat their armies a few times; make sure you have a high-martial siege general in the army; use his siege ability to take 2-3 holdings for every 1 they take; focus on taking the primary defender's personal demense while defending your personal demesne.

Cheers. Well, that sort of sucks. 8 Years down the drain as it ended inconclusively because he died from illness.
Wish there was a ticking warscore. I'll try getting a commander like that next time
