Dilemma #25 - The Brownouts
The city’s fractured electricity grid is beginning to falter, reducing the light and power of essential buildings with no warning. Engineers advise shutting down local substations for repairs and a black start from the old generators, but in the short term this would be even more disruptive to the day-to-day running of the districts.
Do the Districts continue to work through the power failures, or follow the engineers’ recommendations?
Persist: Govern and Lose 1 Ingenuity*
Shutdown: Gain 4 to your Energy Trap and Lose 4 from your Energy Trap**

** or lose all of your Energy Trap instead if your Defences are less than 0
lemon: she/her
