| LA Phlegra has an event where The Burning Mountain site explodes and is replaced with The Shattered Volcano site. | LA Phlegra has an event where The Burning Mountain site explodes and is replaced with The Shattered Volcano site. |
| There is a 25% chance of the mountain exploding on turn 30, +1% per turn after that until it happens. | There is a 25% chance of the mountain exploding on turn 30, +1% per turn after that until it happens. Its rumbling and eventual explosion are somewhat bad for Phlegra: |
| | * On Turn 5, it generates **30** [[Unrest]]. FIXME (The inspector doesn't say if this only happens once.) |
| | * On Turn 15, it generates **40** Unrest and drives **10%** of the local population to neighboring provinces, but it also grants 2-{{gems>12F}}. |
| | * When it explodes, it generates **40** Unrest (again) and kills **20%** of the local population. |
| | |
| | If your capital starts with **30000** taxpayers and no Growth or Death [[Scales]], it'll end up with **21600** remaining once the Mountain explodes, **21380** if you [[Patrol#unrest|Patrolled]] the Unrest away instead of using other means; and that doesn't count what the Laestrygonians do. |
