What Are the Drawbacks of High Misfortune?

[Ironhawk]

Misfortune has its drawbacks, but its not that bad when coupled with Order. I take Misf 2-3 in every MP game. Its a gamble for the first couple of turns, until you capture 1 or 2 provinces, because you could get slammed in your cap. But once you get those provs the chance of a bad event in your cap drops drastically - and the truth is that bad events in the majority of your empire really dont effect gold output that much. They are only a problem if they happen in capitals and awesome farmland provs.

So, on the whole, unless you have a strong reason to take luck, I think that Order + Misf is always the way to go.
