This seems very clear and straightforward to me. Did he make a mistake in this statement? The only thing province scales would seem to do is restrict whether nor not the extreme events (i.e. barbarian hordes, caspar of the cave) are allowed there or not. Since most events both good and bad are allowed with any scales, this wouldn't have a huge effect.

Generaly I agree, although local scales do effect events to significant degree, because a lot of events are scales related (not only luck scales but all scales). But the main point about home capital's luck seem to be pretty straight forward, unless KrissO is mistaken.

That's why I suggested that casting bad luck spell on somebody's capital could screw his entire empire for several turns, if this information is correct.
