The most dreadful (random) event?

[Zeldor]

Olive:

They are cool and nice, but good for small maps and small nations. There are 3 events max, when you conquer enemy misfortune lands bad events from there will take that slots. For magic gems in good amount you need magic scale and not every nation wants it. For many gold events in the beginning you probably want turmoil, but well, that gives you less gold. Luck3 vs Misf2 is 200 points. You can buy a lot for that [and not suffer much with Order 3 you want to have anyway].

I'm not sure anymore. I'm a former monomaniac of Order 3 / Misfortune 2, but I've become really p!ssed to have provinces invaded by barbarians or knights. If the PD is strong enough to stop most barbarian invasions, yes, otherwise I'll avoid misfortune. And problem on big maps is that, even with order, you'll get 3/4 events a turn.

I guess it's all about the nation. Actually, I'm really enjoying playing Gath with Order 3 / Misfortune 2, barbarians don't match a 20 PD and the cash flows.
