in my recent game after creating sushi, I was told to get every type of ressource sushi needs, because I was on a big and small map with many water ressources I already add them and was awarded 30 gold to the city founder...

Is it me or this quest shouldn't exist?

as far as i remember the bonus is added to the HQ of the corporation, thus goes through the modifiers (standard 200% - market/grocer/bank/wall street), that's 90 gold per turn. I'd not complain, provided I'd spread it to every city anyways.

well I just think its a way to powerfull bonus for a quest you usualy can do at the time the HQ is build because you didn't build sushi for nothing.

haha, many random event are flat broken.
if that's too powerful what about the free golden age if you build n coliseums. or the one the one that kills most of your navy.
not even discussing the early uprising since they are sadistic.

standard cure: disable random events before the game starts.

bestsss ... i see your free golden age from coliseums and raise with free golden age from the Marathon event (which as far as i remember can trigger from losing a unit doing a war)

it has a chance to trigger every time an enemy unit is inside your borders i think... this is exactly why i play with them turned off

I think the Marathon event can only occur if/when the enemy moves to your land on the turn when they DoW. Even then it's pretty ridiculous.

What I "love" most about the random events is that the "worst" events are actually the best ones. Hereditary dynasty died out? Free settled GP. Crisis in the senate? +1 happy to the whole nation permanently.

Events, if the ridiculous ones were toned down, would be a good way to balance out the gameplay somewhat. For example Slavery is worse with the events on, and Police State much better as you can get the most ridiculous event in the game, free March upgrade to all current and future Gunpowder units. Yes, I think that's more ridiculous than Vedic Aryans, as those come so early you can easily just restart the game with no harm done. Compared to a Industrous age Deity SoD of Monty's with 100% March units...

To the OP: I don't think the quest should pop up if you already have all of the resources. Maybe you just acquired the last needed through culture or warfare as the quest popped? If not, then it's a bug for sure.

Maybe putting event off should keep the slavery event possible and the other civic related event possible
