[.803][Balance/Suggestion] Inneficient and Insane should have a global effect

from Elemental Forums

Right now, taking either of these is a no-brainer and a free 20 skill points, as your liege is likely to never be stationed in a city. Unless there is some reason to have your liege sitting in town (such as utilizing the research talent, providing additional prestige, spell casting power, or whatnot) then these weaknesses should have global effects. Oddly the production penalty will be the hardest to get around, since a -1 to production will prevent growth. Perhaps a 25% penalty to all production and a 25% penalty to all prestige?

I thought that was their point? I'm going to assume that you're going to have the wizardly types sitting in your city shooting off spells (and being protected, obviously), so they're going to hurt them a lot more.

Especially considered how many more points a commander / fighter sovereign needs.

But, yeah, they should probably be lowered to like 5 or 7 points each.

Or be the trigger for a host of negative events.  Or perhaps you get the trait "psychotic episode" periodically, in which your sovereign occasionally just goes off in the deep end and begins to behave randomly for a few months.
