What Are the Drawbacks of High Misfortune?

[Doc_Jones]

I think the problem is, what is the definition of beneficial when it comes to luck.
This is how I read what he said
Your territory:
%chance of random events is 15% for all (which means, by design +/- random events is not good or bad and therefore it doesn't matter who's dominion is the source)
Scales - enemy LK 3
Result - -39% good event, LK 3 type events (good or bad)

Scales - enemy MF 3
Result - -39% good event, MF 3 type events

Scales - Your MF 3
Result - -39% good event, MF 3 type events

Scales - Your LK 3
Result - +39% good event, LK 3 type events

Which seems to make sense. Your LK3 dominion spreading makes goofy things happen where ever it lands. Just in you lands it makes neat stuff happen, in their lands...random goofy stuff happens too. BUT, it's likely to be bad...just not horrible.

And on a side note: I could care less if my units being cursed in a territory was a random event or not. I'm blaming it on someone.

"PANGAEA, I'm coming for you!"

I've heard a few people mention that you can only get 3 events per turn.

But I just got 5.

I'm confused. See attached screenie.

You can only get 5 random events per turn.
There are spells that produce 'random' events. Hurricanes and the like.

Most likely, you're being targeted.

You can get maximum of three random events per turn, AFAIK. Some spells duplicate effects of spesific events and are reported as events. Some pretenders (Lady of Fortune, Jade Emperor) cause additional, positive events. Some uniques (Doom Horrors) may cause additional, negative events.


I've sometimes heard mentions of four basic events, but I think in that case someone's been hit by one of those mentioned above without realizing it.

[Sombre]

Unfortunately I don't remember the exact events, but I do remember that 2 of them were about ill omens and at least 2 were positive - one resource increase and one castle built iirc.

Is there a spell which causes an ill omen in a province? That baleful star one perhaps?

[Zeldor]

I think you can get more than 3 if you get new provinces. It makes events before provinces are conquered, so you get 3 on your own land and you may also conquer others that had random event, including indies.

[Endoperez]

That's a pretty good explanation, actually. Congrats on that.
