May I suggest giving the new Learn to Play scenario a go? Number 4 ties so much together and is quite fun to play through.

Wait, have disciples been boosting yields while standing on something this whole time? Or is this the first patch in which they can do so (and yay! finally smtg to do with them!).

Characters will now finish missions if they die on the same turn

Maybe you could also make ambitions that are completed on the turn that the leader dies, not becoming legacy? I just got 2 notifications starting my turn 1/ it becomes a legacy 2/ it's completed.
