I'm not sure if this is a bug or a missed design point, but the sequence went as follows:
As William of England I declared war on the King of France while he was in a series of other wars, including a civil war to replace the king. My casus belli was to sieze Vexin for Robert, Duke of Mormandy.
I besieged and took all settlements in Vexin and moved on to besiege Paris.
The King of France changed - whether due to the death of the old one or because the "replace king" war was successful I don't know (sorry).
Instantly, all of the settlements I had already taken (all of Vexin and one settlement in Paris) were reassigned to the new king - I simply lost them all. I guess this may be so that battles for the kingship give a smooth takeover of the realm if the original king dies and the claimant takes over. As a "foreigner" who ends up still at war with France but having to besiege all of the previously held settlements again, however, it's not so convincing!
