Will it make a reappearance in EU IV? If it does, I think there should efinitely be another option. Maybe a -1 stab option?

No it should be a -1 stab, damn it! For historical accuracy!
 
"I love the sight of comet in the morning!"

In other words: EUIV will certainly continue the tradition of sighting comets. :)
 
In the interest of innovation and progress it should clearly have the fourth option removed and the third increased to a hefty -2. For science and progress.
 
This would be hilarious. But it has to be something that sets up to continue the poem.

"It's an omen,
the end is nigh;
Ignore the peasant rabble
stop looking at the sky!"

The whole poem should be something like this:

"It's an omen,
the end is nigh.
Ignore the peasant rabble
stop looking at the sky!
What can we do?
I just give up.
There´s no escape;
Johan´s comet will screw you up!"

Borrowed the "I give up" line from adijarca.
 
I agree. There have to be five options. Perhaps not for historical reasons but for gameplay and replayability reasons. It will add more strategy and dept to the game.

When I think about it. The reason I don't play Vicky2 so much anymore is because the event doesn't give you stab hits. It gives you research points.

It's like:
Comet sighted!
-Thank god we live in such modern times.
