What event frequency are people playing with?
I have been playing commen events for awhile now as its more balenced and I'm using a +-13% (mis)fortune mod which alters the chance that an event is good/bad by 13% per level of dominion. I have been mainly playing testing T'ien Ch'i theme mods so I have used this combo alot using luck3/turmoil3. Generally I use the Lady of Fortune as she makes a big differnce. With this setup I would say that I would generally have got ~1000gps by turn 20 - sometimes more, occassionally alot more. I do get bad events but I'm yet to get one in my home province using the Lady of Fortune - I suspect this is a run of really good luck.
I have actually started to enjoy the events as long as they don't cripple my home province. This happened as soon as I trialed the Prince of Death in a luck race (appropriate I guess
) ). Having to retake provinces occassionally is all part of the fun and there are alot of historical games I'm critical of for their lack of more significant events.
I've been keeping an eye on how many gems I get when I get a handful of gems and 2 seems fairly average - what is others experiance? If this is representative then its pretty piteful but I suspect luck has skewed things.
I would recommend people try a +-13 (mis)fortune mod and play commen events. This seems more balenced than playing standard with rare events. If you still want still better luck then change the mod to misfortune 15 making the chance of a good event with luck3 95%.
