Anolytic
Recruit
So, I took up arms on behalf of Jarl Thorgil to conquer Danmark in his name.
My game is in normal Sandbox mode.
After several hours of playing I have now succeeded in the task. I have singlehandedly captured every Danish town and imprisoned every Danish Lord defying me. One lord I have, at the very end of my campaign, convinced to join the cause. The rest rot in my prisons in Ribe and Huhelstadt.
The last town that I took was Heidabyr. As with every other town, I advised Jarl Thorgil to give it to me. I did the work, I should get the reward.
The Kingdom of Danmark have 5 Lords, the King, and 0 castles or centers.
Norse Rebels have Me, Jarl Thorgil and 1 former Danish Lord, and all centers and castles in Danmark. All of which are owned and controlled by me. And fully upgraded.
I ask Jarl Thorgil about how the campaign is going, he says it is going splendidly. The Danes are barely holding on, what with their 5 remaining lords supporting the king.
At midnight, this happens:
I get a message that The Kingdom of Danmark is no more, they are defeated. I get a message screen that my revolt has succeeded in taking over Danmark. I get a bonus with the relationship with all the danish lords who are now in the same kingdom as me, Danmark, which is now held by Jarl Thorgil as King.
At the same time however, I get a message not that my quest has succeeded, but that my quest has failed. My quest to help Jarl Thorgil claim the Throne failed, even though clearly it didn't. Moreover my quest "Notes on Eriu" also somehow failed simultaneously.
So, I succeeded in doing as I was supposed to, but I still failed the quest inexplicably.
I have done some minor tweaks to my game. There should however be no way they would affect the outcome here.
I loaded my save on a different computer with a clean and fresh install of M&B (no tweaks) and the same thing happens exactly.
Note: To my surprise, though it is probably correct, the former king of Danmark is turned into a vassal of Jarl Thorgil upon the rebellion prevailing.
Note: This frustrates me immensely. I played my entire campaign aimed at this moment and this mission. It bugging out bugs me a lot.
Note: Is there any way I can circumnavigate this bug? I have kept many earlier saves just in case. But the farther I have to go back the more time and effort was wasted. I was wondering if it had something to do with all the lords being in my prison still. Could I convince them all to join me before taking the last castle. Would that help? Would it help if I didn't take the last captured castle for myself and instead gave it to Jarl Thorgil? Is there any way to fix or circumvent this bug? I don't see how I could have caused this bug with any of my tweaks, but did I?

I played this DLC when it first arrived. I had to start over a few times because of bugs and updates. I finally played a campaign all the way to taking up the claim of Jarl Thorgil when I stopped playing because of a combination of bugs and an update which added features that wouldn't work in savegames started before the update. I waited until recently to pick up the game again and was hoping to finally be able to do the campaign I wanted to do back then.
