It's worth mentioning that Doom Horrors appear to cause Bad Events to occur. In my most recent game, after hearing all about Doom Horrors, I set up a Doom Horror Factory where I would mass produce Doom Horrors at 2-3 per turn.

Unfortunately, horrible things would constantly befall the aforementioned province. And the lab would burn down every other turn. Convinced that the AI was somehow responsible for this, I went with my classically heavy-handed overkill approach: I stuck up all of the arcane shielding domes I could cast, 4 or 5 or so. NOTHING was going to get through that.

The woes continued. Often multiple times per turn. I was utterly perplexed, and was planning on reporting this as a bug...right after I finished that game.

It all came to a head at the end game, where my masses of Doom Horrors congregated in massive packs of 20-30 in the home provinces of my enemies....

And immediately, about 8 bad events occurred in that province. It *HAD* to be the Doom Horrors. I'm sure of it now.
how many hundreds of turns did you play to have such doom factory?
