-    * This is false.  Scales are actually multiplied in the following way : Base Value*(1+Order/Turmoil mod)*(1+Prod/Sloth mod)...etc. (See for example [[province-attributes|the income calculation formula]]) Taking Order 1 and Production 1 doesn't give a 6% bonus to income as shown, but instead, it's a 6.09% boost.  When Sloth and Order interact, it doesn't zero out, but instead you gain 99.9% of the income you excepted.  The end result is that multiplying negative scales won't be a drastic as it appears while multiplying positive scales will be slightly better than it seems. The biggest change is that that negative and positive scales will result in slightly worse income (or Production) than it appears.   +    * This is false.  Scales are actually multiplied in the following way : Base Value*(1+Order/Turmoil mod)*(1+Prod/Sloth mod)...etc. (See for example [[province-attributes|the income calculation formula]]).
