Maybe there isn't a limit of three random events?

[Action]

I always hear people say there is a limit of three random events, per faction, per turn. And anything higher is caused by provinces changing hands or by enemy spells that pretend to be random events.

I am looking at a turn with four random events, all beneficial. Presumably none of these are enemy spells that pretend to be random events.

Slave labor improves resource production
Silver Mine found, 40 more gp per turn permantly
Silver Mine found, 40 more gp per turn permantly
Priest frightens people, increasing faith and generating 300 gp of donations.

None of the provinces that got events changed hands this turn.

Luck 3, Turmoil 3 scales (and more gold than I know what to do with hehe).

I think it's more likely that Turmoil increases the cap of random events. They may have changed it to make Turmoil/Luck combo somewhat similar to Order/Misfortune. I wouldn't be suprised if no one discovered it before in Dominions3, because it seems that Turmoil is one of least popular scales. You may not need resources, but you always need gold for troops, commanders, buildings, PD.

I think Ashen Empire often takes Luck, and almost always takes turmoil.

Any way, one of these could have been caused by your pretender. Lady of Fortune and Lord of Plenty can cause good events, at least.

Im guessing by almost always takes misfortune you meant turmoil?

Yes. I'll edit the post.

Aww, I have a feeling it's pretender causing extra events here. But at least pretender events aren't limited by the cap.

I'm using a Scorpion King.

And I don't have any characters that mention anything about good events in the description.
