Wombat combat ? can you explain what each of these events has in terms of impacts in the game - is there a way to just have the events file for download (i would like to cimbine it with the eye candy events patch)

What does reverse gravity do ?

shouldn't a beer festival also lower productivity?

i don't know if you could do that, though.

[Fyron]

Population Change is a flat number, not a percentage, so that Reverse Gravity event will kill 95 M people every time.

Sadly, events can only have one effect.
