Events

Plague

Disease is spreading through the cities; the workshops are emptying. It is an unfavorable event (Mid-game events).

When it comes

Two conditions together: you must have at least 2 cities and the purse must hold at least 18 gold.

Options

• Reward the healers from the treasury (cautious) — 18 gold goes out. This price is taken from the purse right away when the card arrives (escrow): it becomes final if you choose this option or do not answer, and is refunded if you choose the other option.
• Resign to waiting — production income drops by 8%, for 4 turns. The multiplier applies to gross production income (Production); because the pool shrinks, the remainder that would have turned into gold melts first, and if no remainder is left, the cities' draw is cut (The production queue).

The numbers on this page are read from the game’s balance tables.
