Magic scale changes the MR stat.

In general, events are tied to scales. High Productivity unlocks certain province-improving events, for example, while high death unlocks deadly plagues. When Turmoil is high, you can get the 1/5 of population wandering off event, etc.

Luck is tied both to certain spell effects (Crossbreeding) and to your chance of getting national heroes. With Misfortune-3 you will never get any heroes at all. I suspect it's something like 3% chance per turn of getting a hero, +/- 1% per Luck scale.

Is there a list of these event-scale relationships somewhere?

I have heard that Misfortune events are greatly influenced by other scales, especially Death and Magic. No hard data, though....

I my experience independent attacks caused by random events are much bigger with a misfortune scale.

There's a Dominions 2 list of all (?) of the events in the game, and what scales are required to unlock them.

No longer definitive but probably still informative.
