22 Random Events

Random events are a part of life. No whining when the new test missile smacks into the office tower which collapses onto your reactor. Such is the price for the privilege of playing such an awesome game.

Actually, random events are not as random as they seem. The great equalizer, underpowered players will find themselves quickly helped out of poverty by random events, whereas players with city and inventory fit to bursting will naturally be plagued by higher maintenance happenstance.

Some random events have no impact on the game, they are for fun and flavour. These should be easy to differentiate. Theocracy governments avoid 1/3 of negative events, leaving more room for positive ones.
