It's very strange then, since as soon as i started the war, the game auto-saved with the on-screen text and associated slowdown.
I reloaded the game after crashing it, and the game loads into the exact moment when it said that it was saving after the wardec.
And you cannot even change the autosave options for inonman games.
Are you sure that you ran your test in ironman?
Does anybody else have the same experience in ironman games, that the game does not auto-save on war declaration?

It depends how far along you are from the last save, not in days, but in actions.

Sometimes it can save several times shortly after each other, if massive stuff is going on. Other times you can run an entire month, declaring wars, making alliances and all that jazz, and it still won't save before start of the month.

Something like a PU between majors will almost always save instantly, as will the burgundian inheritance most often, though not always.

A confirmation for a confirmation? If I didn't read it the first time, why would I read it the second time? Maybe we should have a confirmation for a confirmation for a confirmation. That way, even if I didn't read any of those confirmations, I would of had been unconsciously primed on the details by the time I am on my third confirmation and thus, would subconsciously know whether or not to proceed... In other words, we won't even have to read the confirmation to know whether or not to go through with it! We get to have our cake AND eat it!

Jokes aside, me thinks:
Another confirmation box -> bad.
Things remaining the same as it is -> meh.
Better and clearer UI -> GOOOOOOOOD.
