Due to the ongoing situation of people up in arms about some of the changes with the new patch I was thinking about a way to improve diplo-annexing a vassal without reverting to the way before.I was thinking of long term integration in to the parent state for the vassal over maybe over 10 years in the form of events for furthering integration, that would be less a sudden blast for all you diplomatic mp and more a long term issue you would need to work on to achieve.At the end of integration you can then annex them for a lot less monarch points, the trade off been it has taken many years to get to this point of annexing them.An integration event example:''For many years you have been trying to integrate your vassal Mantua into your state and it now seems to be working. The bad side is although integration is running smoothly the rulers and people of Mantua are demanding to keep more of there dues to us in their own state for their benefit. How do we deal with this?''''Give them what they want.''Income from vassal Mantua -50% for 10 years.Integration of Mantua increases by 10%''Those dues are my birth right.''Mantua's liberty desire +20%Mantua's Integration increases by 13%This is just a rough idea of an interesting compromise to diplo-annexing inspirerd by the Veritas et Fortitudo System for vassals in their mod.
