Eh, I always take luck, and even with Luck-3 I've had labratories or temples destroyed on the first turn.

Come to think of it, I've also lost 40% of my population in a province on turn 1 or turn 2. So, many of the very worst events can happen on turn 1, regardless of luck.

But - I don't think I've ever seen one of the top-tier events happen on turn one - never the 1000/1500 gold events that bring magic items, and I'm pretty sure I've never even gotten the random mages or whatnot on turn 1.

So - it actually seems to me that the game is coded to prevent the best events from happening right away, but not to prevent the worst events, regardless of luck / misfortune.

Curious if anyone can definately recall getting the uber-events on turn 1, disproving my theory.
