Winning Vote
I'm the largest, strongest. most respected nation in my game and overall number one. I'm allied and maxed likeness with all the major powers. Yet i can't get a single vote even my allies vote against me. How do you win votes ?

If your that far the very last thing would be to marry off your princesses to secure kinship with the most powerful nations and then the vote will be yours.

lol, I can actually claim the title of ultimate emperor and get all 5 votes, but the game immediately after tells me I didn't get unanimous vote (uh, yes I did game!), and instead of winning the electors declare war on me. Annoying bug.

I found the only way to get ultimate emperor is to have 6 vassels all stronger than any other nation left. If your in good standing with your vassels they have to vote for you. Always save before trying to claim the throne. I beat the game by getting elected Emperor.

Vassalage is an assured way to get the vote, in most cases the vassals that you will take are not going to be the largest nations on the map. Ultimately what the votes come down to is 'united' vs 'harmonious' stance in political view. Harmonious is usually achieved through marrage but can also be obtained during two kings reigns in which either or both send gifts of high value (land, gold, break deals, etc).

Claiming the title and the normal electoral vote that comes around every so often are differnt events. When you try to claim the title you are trying to claim it in the sense you know that you will win. If you make a claim and lose then the penalty is war with the largest nations. Do you recall the approximate size of your kingdom vs other nations(in general)?

I reloaded a few times and then it worked.
Yeah of course I know what's involved. I was the largest kingdom by far and the 7 electors (meant 7, 5 is the event) were all my vassals. The 7 slots on the right were all filled with their shields in my favour but the game didn't recognize that.

To get a vote from a nation, you need to have a 100% positive relationship with them. Just spam Money Gifts to them and done, you are the ruler of europe.

but its only work in voting. Yes sending gifts effective for positive relationship but you can lost this relationship over time. Sending gift not effective for claiming the title

For the title you must get 2/3rds of the votes (6 kings will vote, meaning you'll need 4 votes to claim it); to get them to vote for you they either ahve to be marryed to one of your dauthers or be your vassal; Relationships and alliances are a minor bonus needed; The way I claimed the title I forced 2 kindoms to become my vassals, made an aliance with them, helped them get ot the top 7 kindoms (protected them from any enemy that would send them down the chart); Married 2 of my dauthers to other 2 powerfull kindoms, send a spy in each (re-sended them untill they became a spy), and killed the other heirs and after that the kings (of course I donated a province to each of the 4 kindoms that I wasn't homonious with) and I claimed my title. Easy as that

What Ckaps says !

Vassals for other guys votes and reducing everyone else in size.
If possible then realms far apart form each other or they go at each others throats.
