If its income you want, I'd rather play with Turmoil-3 Sloth-3 Growth-3 Luck-3, much less of those devastating bad luck events, and eventaully your income will be better off. (A quick test game I made showed that while Order-3 was better in the first 10-20 turn, after 30 turns you are probably better off with Turmoil-3 Growth-3 Luck-3, though one game isn't statistically viable)
Also, besides the gold, you get loads of extra gems, free troops, bigger chance of heros turning up, free magic items and spells like cross breeding give you better effects.

However, the first 20 turns are the most crucial and in that time, with those scales, you are at a serious disadvantage. Especially if you only have a small empire.

I think order is better for small maps, well the luck/turmoil/sloth/growth combo fantastic for big maps with a high dominion, 9 or 10 and a powerful combat pretender, dragon etc...
Well, obviously each pick is good for different games, different people and different strategies.
I just wanted to remind that Turmoil-3 Luck-3 Growth-3 is a viable alternative to Order-3.

And I assumed the extra gems,magical items, units and heroes and cross breeding were obvious advantages. Then again, I guess they aren't always obvious
