Siege and vote issue

[Hhg93]

After successfully conquering a city which I have besieged with an army belonging to me(3 other parties as well but I was the creator of the army) game failed to show my clan on the voting screen for ownership of city. I'm definitely sure its not normal..or is it? This whole vassalship thing seems changed a lot as you could simply rebel against your king if he failed to give you a fief you have just conquered and keep the lands as well but I cannot see that option in bannerlord.

For one, I think if you lead an army and take a castle/town or take one on your own, your clan should be be one of the proposed new owners to vote for by default. It doesn't seem to be right now which is a little annoying when you put effort/time/resources into it and get nothing back other than some influence. And by some, I mean for my first town I took, 3.5 influence was all I got for my efforts and you spend so much assembling the army in the first place. That should also be upped in my opinion.

Yeah I have taken over 20 keeps/towns none have even had me as possible owners, in fact 3 people own all of the last 50 fiefs taken always the same 3 people up for the vote.

It seems completely random at the moment to be honest. I was only proposed once for a castle, got 100% of the votes, and the ruler still decided to give it to himself. After that, despite participating in amost all sieges made by my faction, I was never considered again.

Exactly takes so much time but yields so little. AI behaviour is so problematic as well like when you conquer a city or won a major field battle your forces are a bit whittled, numbers dwindling and wounded are so many and some lord or king coming at you with 600 or so men and you see your king/queen just passing by you with 900 men to besiege some trivial Castle just ignoring your annihilation in such dignity...lol man EA is just frustrating sometimes

I had just been awarded a castle, put some initial troops into it, waited in the castle for the rest of my men to heal, then an army of like four hundred enemies came along and besieged it. A day or two into the siege, my king comes by with about 800 soldiers and walks right on by. The AI needs better prioritisation on holding castles recently acquired rather than taking new ones all the time. It just leads to too many castles having about sixty men each and an enemy army coming to reclaim them all the next day and then the back and forth goes on and on.

And that back and forth results in some 3rd faction coming in to the mix and annihilating both factions easily as there are no troops defending castles and cities and the ones out on the field are either so low on numbers due to recent sieges etc. or so far away(trying to conquer their initial enemies) so you see khuzaits ruling half the continent lol I hope someone from the dev team is reading the posts as the game tends to yield weird campaign results.
