I mean that magic button activated at cost of 200 DIP.
Lithuania just happened to be under attack of Crimea and the Ottomans, I surely saw this as my chance to liberate some of my lands right off the start and also establish my rule upon some of their useful allies (Saxony, Riga), when voila, I'm white peaced, all the war efforts go poof in a split second. Not only Lithuania signs peace without even asking me, but what is even more stupid, all the other participants are getting away with mere white peace as well. They should have been rightfully crushed by the combined might of Muscovy and the Calmar union. As for Lithuania themselves, I don't see them losing less than 4-5 provinces due to their own stupidity and weakness. Instead, they got out intact.
Can we at least get an option of escalating the conflict and fighting against their new Polish overlord? I suspect that's precisely what would have happened in history. A better option is introducing an event chain, so that in such a case Poland decides whether they want to get full Lithuania and thus defend them or maybe ceeding some provinces to their rightful owners wouldn't be all that bad. Or something along these lines.
Atm the only way of fair play is to manually keep Poland in war until they get a (real) king, so that 'Form Union' decision becomes invalidated. This is done by allying Poland and getting them into some prolonged war, or just by DoWing them. These things make very little sense, and you kinda have to go for them in case you don't want to get ripped off. Delaing offensives against such a vulneurable target just cause *an event* should fire is neither smart nor realistic. Damn, I can't RP even when I feel like doing so, what a nonsense!
