Add a new subrule to Rule 2.2 (Inventions) called “Flame Vent”:-
Cost: 2 Iron Power Requirement: -10
If the owner of an Invention with a Flame Vent owns an Invention with Wood in its Composition, the Invention with Wood in its Composition is destroyed. (If an Invention with a Flame Vent would have a Power Requirement lower than 0, its Power Requirement is instead 0.)

Josh:
Put:
so this reduces power requirement at the cost of possibly destroying one of your inventions?

Kevan:
It has the advantage of cheaply reducing the ongoing Power Requirement of an Invention, at the cost of preventing you from owning any wood-based Inventions. In some situations it’s useful, in others it’s not.

Would make it too easy for Commoners to completely negate power requirements
Darth Cliche:
Kevan:
You can only have one of any Part per Invention, so I think you’d struggle to actually reduce an Invention’s Power Requirement to zero. (Even if you bolted a Flame Vent onto Wings, the current lowest-power Part, the Invention would have a total Power Requirement of 9, after you’d factored in the “square of the number of Parts” and “five times the number of different Resources involved in its Composition”.)
