Default Re: The most dreadful (random) event?

Luck needs serious boost. In two MP games I played, with Turmoil 3 and Luck 3, I get more bad events than good. You regularly lose 20% population even with the ridiculously good luck, and generally all other bad events you can think of. Sure, barbarians won't show up, but knights and stuff still do.

To actually balance luck, I would propose the following changes:

For each province (generate events ; add to currenteventlist; )
Sort currenteventlist according to desirability of events;
If Luck(n) then discard (n*13%) lower part from currenteventlist;
Else if Misfortune(n) then discard (n*13%) upper part from currenteventlist;
If numberofevents>4 then choose 4 randomly;
