Also, how much am I going to hate taking 2 misfortune?

I habitually take Order-3 Misfortune-3 in SP. I doubt you'll hate Misfortune-2 at all if you have more than 30 provinces (bad events don't scale with empire size). It doesn't stop me from getting good events (I got the 1500 gold event in a Misfortune-3 province last night and I commonly get gem events). With Misfortune-2 but no order events will be slightly more frequent but more often good. The key thing is to have PD good enough to beat barbarian attacks (forget about beating the knight attacks, just clean them out later or leave them alone). In some games I suffer about 1 barbarian attack per turn, in others (current one as MA Ashdod) I've had only a couple in 30 turns. I'm not sure why.
