No, but that's the official word: "Order/turmoil scales increase or decrease the quantity of random events by 10% per step." This is not an exact quote, but I believe it is accurate.

I made no assumptions, though, other than that the above paraphrase is true... the neutral-scale event frequency is always 100% if you regard that as your relative base

That is your assumption Saber - thats the base line is 100% and that is what is modified +-10%. This may "seem" logical but there could be another explanation based around the +-10% being an absolute modifier on your chance that turn (modified so we hear by such things as province numbers etc) of having a random event.

I don't know the answer but your projections do not fit with my Dominions experiance - Dom I could be confusing me.

cheers
