vassals blowing up the emperor, yes. that's how it usually goes.
You must be seeing some very different wars than the ones I've seen.
In the wars I've seen, 'emperors' are rarely blown up, but vassals getting blown up is extremely common.
hence why we root for them when they are winning.
e g. Ukraine
Every goddamn war ever.
