Civil war and Events

[nookie12]

Civil war
I know that it's a huge progress in the way of civ-like gameplay but.....
But it's kinda annoying when your king expanded the borders of empire, under his rule the faction became the richest in the world, he ruled his kingdom with chivlary(about 7chivlary) and builded an alliances with all the most powerfull kingdoms....
BUT he still had ZERO authority and the civil war is plunder the lands..... It was just a one example.... But no matter how I tried.. HOW powerfull king I have.... THE CIVIL WAR IS NEVER ENDS........... I just forget about it and play with it just like another AI leg-up...............
SO explain me please the machanics how the civil war works.. Because I don't see any reasonoble explainings

I don't need any suggestions that the medieval times was instabile and every lord was for itself..... If you added to game some interesting innovation.. .than please make sure it's work correctly... and it's not an IMPOSSSIBLE luck to have at least one king that not inspires the civil war...

Events
just want to know what is the ballance of +/- economic events..... because I only had +2 economic once(personal record)...... all other time I had the 0 or - events.. so most of time I had just a depression.... 30% of gameplay time... Maybe it's just my luck ? I know that I'm really bad in this

Played alot and for different sovereigns.....

and in the end want to say that I like this mod very much mostly for it's hardcore gameplay(like the AI playstyle)... but sometimes there is no interest in just giving the leg-up.... want some hard opponents.. not only the interferences from the game scripts

Also sorry for my spelling and grammar =) I know it's bad

When it comes to Events, I think you are one unlucky bastard. j/k. I have my Event score ranging between -4 and +3. But really, if you try to upgrade your DLV to 6.3 beta or 6.2 BB WAR DRAFT mini mod, then your result would be equal to mine. It's completly random, and there is nothing you can do about it.

When it comes to the authority of the King and Civil War, then I would read about authority in DLV 6.1: Strategy Guide for New Players! (Updated 9/16/09). Make sure your Heir fights about 5 battles before it's his turn to coronation. Among other tips which is within the guide. If that still don't satisfy you, then search abit about here. I have probably written a bok about it in the past.
