Event Industrial Age

The Rail Baron

A man in an improbably tall hat wants to run a railway through town. He has already drawn the line on your map, in ink, straight through the bakery. He would like to discuss profits.

This event can occur from the Industrial Age through the Modern Age.

An affectionate nod

This is one of Erapolis's homage events: a fond wink at the city builders and strategy games that came before it, told with Erapolis's own characters and words. Like every homage event, it is optional flavour: one of its choices always costs nothing, and none of them stands in the way of your city.

Making the choice

Events arrive as a card over your city. Pick one of its choices; a choice that needs resources you don't have is greyed out. A building left in ruins does nothing until you tap it and choose Repair, which costs part of its price.
