If you don't have shipbuilding researched, you cannot send colonists to provinces which don't border full cities of your own. Shipbuilding is Diplo tech 2 as I recall. Makes sense really.
10:1 battles result in instant wipes. They had 56k to your 5k, there was never any hope.
No, when a vassal occupies a claim of theirs, it is occupied in the name of their overlord. There is currently no way to push your vassals' claims other than taking the province yourself and selling it to your vassal.
Releasing vassals and ceding land in war reduces your AE, even if the land isn't yours.
The devil is in the details.
Check your technology tab, next to the military part you'll see a symbol of two swords crossing. Add 15 to the number there.
If you are in a coalition against your target you can only demand claims or cores, regardless of the CB you used.
Looting: It is most useful early game. You earn the base tax of the province you loot directly twice a month. You can loot any province of a nation you are at war with provided it does not border a province where you have military access (allies, owned lands, occupies lands...) The best places I've found to loot are Lithuania, Western Russia and China. These are large areas with respectable base taxes. obliterate the enemy army and lay down 1k troops on every province and enjoy that sweet dosh.
Hordes make double income on looting.
As for the marriages, yes, that will work. Papal control is idea so you don't lose stability.
Looting occurs either on the moment you enter a province (Provided that province was your end destination and your troops have no further movement orders) OR when your besieging a province at the turn of a month and the province does not have the "looted" modifier.
So you can micro-manage marching one province at a time through a country or carpet siege them. Either way, you are always going to have to take the 1% attrition in order to enjoy the looting money.
I suspect you mean this:
"show monthly tax income" on the options screen before hitting "play"

The wikis are owned by Paradox, and administrated by me.
The content is largely written by players. It is usually accurate (though can often be potentially outdated, in which case the article/section will be clearly marked as such).
Though since it is largely player-written, it is indeed from time to time wrong.
If you encounter a claim on the wikis you believe to be wrong, feel free to correct it with a source in your edit summary (E.G., a link to a dev post, or a description of where in the game files it can be found). If it can't be sourced, it is generally better to mark the claim as "verification needed"; this can be done with the "sup" template:
{{sup|Why the claim might be wrong, or simply "verification needed|the claim in the text}}
Hope that helps. If anyone has any further questions, make sure to highlight me (using "@Meneth") or quote me. I don't normally follow this thread, so otherwise I'm unlikely to see your post.

For a long time, the AI was not using certain diplo actions like calling crusade and claiming throne and, yes, enforce peace.
Now they do, so it's definitely going to be noticeable.

We have added new dynamic province names with basically every patch actually, many of them from the suggestions forum 
There's only so much time though and they all need to be checked by the person adding them (not to mention adapted to any internal map changes we have going on).
If you have suggestions for more to add you can create a thread in the suggestions forum and we'll consider it.

There are map changes so you'll have oddities around the new provinces. Other than that there shouldn't be any known issues (but oddities could happen).
I would expect similar issues as with AoW actually: That is, oddities around new provinces mostly.
