Illwinter you could do yourselves a real favour on this one by removing things like gaining militia from the good list as many, many, players have pointed out this is generally a very minor bad event and very seldom useful. That events like this are still in the game is, I think, one of the issues heightening people irritation as its been complained about for a long time, without a counter argument I've heard of, yet it remains. Militia "good" events ranks up there with Abysian fire mages precision in a list of the mean things Illwinter inflicts upon us. I have read many times how annoying people find such features and never read a defence of them yet they remain. Features like this bias people against you.

Bowing to popular demands runs against the long and proud tradition of swedish paternalism. Being a swede carries with it certain responsibilities, one of them is telling people what they should think, and you Kier, you should think that militias are a good event. Also Kristoffer is a teacher, so the burden of paternalism rests even heavier on his shoulders.
