Salic Consanguinity traces through women and bastards?

Playing as the Przemsyl dynasty of Bohemia, I changed to Salic Consanguinity early on.

However, within the past year (AD 1137), there was an unexpected change in the order of succession. Karol Piast, from a central Polish county, is now set to inherit. His mother is Johanka Przemsyl, whose father is Jindrich Przemsyl, a bastard sired by my king (Castolov, b.1067 and son of Wratislaw, duke at gamestart). He displaced one duke who was a grandson of the king through the male line, and whomever was behind him (including another duke who was a grandson through the female line). I'm completely at a loss. Karol's patrilineal ancestors are all Polish, and he doesn't have any titles. :confused:

ok, I have not quite grasped the various inherritance rules, so we need more discussions about this one.:D

Could very well be related to this one:

I see that Solmyr just posted a less-complicated version of this situation. :)

So, the son of the daughter of a bastard son is first in line to inherit... the daughter's progeny shouldn't be in because it's Salic, and the bastard's progeny shouldn't be in either because of his bastardry (oddly, he's not in line himself, just his grandson).

I went back to the old autosave where the bastard's daughter's son was not first in line. If I make the bastard a Count, as I had done in the manual save, then his grandson is in line. Otherwise, the boy is nowhere. Additionally, if I assassinate either the bastard or the bastard's daughter, the boy is removed from the line of succession (where he was at the top).
 
ok this is getting a lot weirder....:confused:
 
It's almost as if by giving the bastard a County I'm legitimizing him. Though he's not in line himself. Really odd. :D Of course, that still doesn't explain the daughter's son being in line.
 
This is a mixed cuplicate of #113 and #128

I am closing it.

PM me if you think it is different. :)
