Default Re: Event listing

Luck is better than Growth (for sheer cash money), but not good enough to make up for Cold or Heat, certainly not in the short term. There are a lot of reasons to take temp scales, though - and if you're taking temp scales to help with cold bloodedness or for whatever reason, Luck can be a good idea. I never compared Luck 2 and Luck 3, so I can't say - but I think if you're going to take Luck at all, you should probably take 3 points so that you get as many random events as possible.

Chance does favor the bold - I think it's a bad idea to avoid Misfortune out of fear of being eliminated early, becuase in those games where you are *not* eliminated early, you will prosper.
