I agree with Twain luck does seem nerfed.

My impression of 3.14:

Misfortune does seem much worse than last patch. I the one MP game where I am taking misfortune, I have had a horrible event every turn, including one province being repeatably attacked by indie knights. I'm posting a defensive force there for when it happens again.

As far as Luck, I don't know. I have several luck games going, and have been getting very good events, including the 3000 gold + magic item event in one.

Or has it been modified, so you need order to get the money making events?

Yup yup, unluck is much worse now.
I NEVER take unluck 3 anymore - at least one indie attack per turn is guaranteed, when 20+ provinces it becomes 2-3.

Luck/misfortune has not been changed. I something has happened it is probably a secondary result from a fixed bug and WAD.

Edit: unless there is now too many positive events that are restricted to a specific nation.

I haven't noticed anything like that. But I still get way too many bad events with Luck 3...

May the way restrictions work makes events in general rarer for some nations (ie : when a restricted event is rolled it counts in the max number of event per turn even if not hapening for this nation ?) ? I find really strange to regularly have less than 3 events a turn with more than 20 provinces in my luck 3 / turmoil 2 dominion.

No, more like: check event - impossible - check event - impossible - ... - give up after 1000 rolls.

Test 1, more to come:
EDIT: This was done in Silent Seas, and by giving both nations some starting provinces.

Code:

dom 6 order 3 prod 1 magic 1
MA Man turn 1 turn 10 turn 20 turn 30
treasury 400 7400 16000 24000
income 820 813 900 900
upkeep 18 18 18 18
gems 0 1 1 1

notes
got 1 free temple before turn 10


dom 6 luck 3 prod 1 magic 1
MA Ulm turn 1 turn 10 turn 20 turn 30
treasury 400 6900 15000 25000
income 700 700 780 444
upkeep 14 36 62 80
gems 0 20 41 89

notes
Sometime between turns 20 and 30, Bogus attacked Ulm's capital.
