Gavelkind woes

[K-vald]

I have two grandchildren, they are the only heirs. I have Agnatic-Cognatic Gavelkind but for some reason the older daughter is first in line with my grandson (the other child) comes second. Shouldn't my grandson come first and my granddaughter second?

In my current game as the di Canossas turned kings of Italy and Sicily, I'm getting some really weird behaviour from Agnatic-Cognatic Gavelkind:

First, my king died with four sons. He had two kingdoms and two duchies. All of that went to the older son, while the younger ones only got counties.

Then one of the brothers died in prison, and the his brother married his daughter (the king's niece).

Now they have a son. A single son, who should inherit all the titles from his father. But for some reason, instead of the son being the heir to the entire kingdom, the queen is first in line for half the kingdom:

I assume that's a bug?

Can you two please submit a save of your game where you experience this issue? Thank you.

Would love to, but I seem to have a 900k attachment quota. Is it rank related?

In any case, this appears not to be related to gavelkind after all. After I changed Sicily to primogeniture, it still showed the queen as heir to that title. I think it's related to realms, as Sicily was using the HRE's crown laws instead of Italy's.

Ok, yes, that sounds reasonable and probable. In the future, if you want to upload a save or any other file which exceeds the attachment limit, use an external hosting site such as mediafire or 2shared.

EDIT: Just got my game over, my character died and my younger brother was still alive and kicking. Not to mention all other family members who could've inherited (loads of uncles)... :angry:

As far as I can see you do not have any children and it's your father who's your heir. Since you do not have any children the law defaults to Primogeniture as well.
