IF you want no events at all then Order scales is a good choice along with its other bonuses. The luck scale shifts the amount of good events vs bad events. Order/chaos doesnt change the type, just the amount.

The bad events I keep getting involve things like floods and earthquakes destroying population permanently.

Was this later in the game? There are spells which duplicate just about every bad event so you dont really know if its an event or an AI doing it.

One time I had a barely guarded new combat hero with a full deck of items going to my front lines...and 5 heroes who considered my realm "unjust" appeared in the square where he was.

Yeah those dudes have smacked me also. Sometimes its a wimpy province and I leave them there to be a problem for anyone coming at me from that direction.

When I did kill them, I didn't get all of their good magical items. I did end up with "precious," but it seemed hardly worth what I had to do to get it.

Did they rout? Thats one good use of fast (usually light troops) flankers. To attack the rear guys so they die instead of rout.
