Perhaps if Luck when adjusted at all (The Balance of All things) Event occurance increased.

So;

Luck +3 +15% Increase in Events +30 To Good Luck
Luck +2 +10% Increase in Events +20 To Good Luck
Luck +1 +5% Increase in Events +10 To Good Luck
Balance 0 - Even Luck
Luck -1 +5 Increase in Events +10 To Bad Luck
Luck -2 +10 Increase in Events +20 to Bad Luck
Luck -3 +15 Increase to Events +30 to Bad Luck


Thus if you took the Order +3, Misfortune -3 Option you would be negating half of what Order does, and be penalized by the Bad Luck. Or if you I could never see anyone take Turmoil 3, Misfortune 3 though if it was changed to this. Though maybe that is good.

I do think Magic is a weak scale as well. Perhaps there could be another added adjustment besides Magic Resistance and Research.
