Until then I'm afraid I have to remain very sceptical on your observations of these events happening on turn 2.
Attached (assuming i'm doing this right) is an plague hitting Lanka on turn 1 (message start of turn 2). O3 Sl3 H3 D3 Mf2 Mg1 scales, non-CBM.

I also saw a vampire count attack my capitol on turn 3 about 4 test games ago, although I remembered just after I overwrote it with a new test game that I was supposed to be saving such things. (Amusingly, said attack was chased off by monkey PD! Poo fling powers, activate!)
Thanks for this Squirrelloid. I'm in work so I can't check it yet, but I have just scanned the zip archive though and it only contains a .2h file. For others to be able to access a game you need to archive everything in that games folder. So that is basically the .trn and .fatherland (something like this it is called) files. And also the .map file if you used a custom map. The .2h file is actually the only file not needed to 'see' the game, as that is only needed to see/know the orders for that turn, which is why that is what gets sent to the llamaserver But I'll be certain to check it out once you attach everything that is needed.

A plague event on turn 2 would be borderline crippling though, and would indicate that there is at least one very bad event that can happen at the start of turn 2. So I would certainly have to re-assess the theory that there are no very bad events possible that soon if your example game shows it happening.

But as others have said, the Plague event is linked to Death3 scales. And anyone who takes Death3 and Mistfortune is asking for trouble (although I realise you probably did so just for demonstration purposes)
