Proposal: Blueprint: Standing the Heat

Times out and passes at 8-0. -Purplebeard

Edit the “Thermometer” Part to read:-

Cost: 1 Wood, 2 Quicksilver, 1 Gem     Power Requirement: 5
Monitoring the temperature of a machine can help to improve its operating efficiency. Whenever a Commoner who owns a Thermometer and has a negative Income would increase his Coal by his Income as part of a Scavenging action, he instead increases it by his Income plus ten.

Reproposing with “as part of a Scavenging action”.

Have just realises this changes “income below 50” to “negative income”, as I was cutting and pasting an earlier draft. It still works, though, and thematically means that you only get the benefit of the thermometer if you’re running enough machines to generate a significant amount of heat.

Besides, your income’s almost certain to be below 50 if you own a Thermometer, as it has a power requirement of its own. I think this version’s more interesting.
