Fortune tellers

Is there somewhere that lists Stats on misfortune that you can compare a fortune teller with?

What I am trying to get at is say you are playeing TC and have a Fortune teller mage with a 5 rating....How much will that offset misfortune 1 in the province it is in?

Do they stack so that if you have 2 it is a total of 10 or is it a one time per province bonus?

I know that AWE 0 is still powerful and that FEAR 15 is REAL powerful, but no where does it say that Misfortune 1 is equal to 10 bad luck and Misfortune 2 is 15 ect.

With that in mind is why I am asking what a fortune teller 5 offsets misfortune.

Geeeez, I hope this makes sense

Luck scale operates separately from Fortune Telling.

So what happens is, if you took Misfortune, you will still roll lots of bad events. If that bad event gets assigned to a province with Fortune Telling units in it, then you add the FT values together, to get the percentage change to negate the bad event that was going to happen. So if you had 1 unit with 5, then there is a 95% chance that the bad event happens anyways. It's additive, so 5 with 5 apiece would be 75% chance of the event still happening.

It is a bit disturbing. And it used to be animated? Sounds like something an illithid would dream up. You're not an illithid, are you JM?

I think his previous avatar was animated, and then he changed it into the disturbing one.

For the love of God, don't change avatar again! Who knows what you have lurking on your harddrive?
