Blackout

The lights go out in homes without power coverage. Pay for emergency generators, or spend some grumpy candlelit evenings. Power coverage prevents blackouts.

This disaster event can occur from the Industrial Age through the The Beyond. It only strikes where Power does not reach, so building a Power Station or Solar Farm or Fusion Reactor nearby prevents it.

Most events offer a choice on screen. A building left in ruins can be repaired for part of its cost by tapping it.
