I always play with common events, as I like random events unless they single handedly decide games.

Changing the percentage of good/bad events might help, but I still feel the real culprit is that Order is just too good, which makes luck very unattractive due to the negative synergy.

The Lady of Fortune is nice, but IMHO skews test results as most races can't even take her; the 1000 gold for 20 turns average you mention is way more than I've seen with T3/L3. Even that averages out to only ~50 gold a turn, which is just no match for ~+50% income O3 yields.
