What if there were disasters integrated into the game! They could be real time or random, I don't care, but it would be epic. Airports shutdown from blizzards, insane amounts of turf destroyed from tsunami(rare). It may piss people off, but the battlegrounds need change occasionally! You could buy things to protect yourself too; Levies, storm shelters, fire dept., etc. There could be a daily forecast/news at 7AM for the day.

ie: Hurricane Nick(?) is due to arrive on land in the Virgin Islands on August,15. From here Nick will continue through Cuba's entirety, Key West, Tampa-St.Petersburg, Pensacola, Mobile, and Biloxi-Gulfport. Provided by the TWS.

I'd like airport closings or something of the sort, but tsunamis destroying turf would be too devastating in my opinion. It could be a complete game changer

Hurricanes render dens and warehouses useless for a week and destroy fences and storefronts
Hurricane protection-Levies, boarded up windows, sandbag barricades

That'd be making it all too complicated I would think

Tornadoes destroy every turf in there narrow path and put every turf within a 1/4 mile out of commission.

Tsunamis destroy all turf within 1/2 mile of affected coastal area. Turf 1/2 - 2 miles in lose fences, collectors, storefronts, docks, and warehouses. Any defenses are destroyed

Volcanoes destroy the area within a 50 mile radius! Cities near volcanoes(rare,rare,rare!-meaning their eruptions) are very unstable. But, when a volcano erupts there are a series of earthquakes that will allow experienced turfers to see the coming decimation and leave. When the eruption comes, though, every turf in the radius is annihilated! Within 100 miles out of commission!

This maybe a bit too complicated, but additions like this one are made to the game all the time! Obviously if proven to devastating, things like tsunamis could be lessened or eliminated. But, wouldn't it be so awesome to see the entire Atlantic seaboard in shambles from a disaster! It would be so interesting! You'd have to watch for hurricanes SE, tornadoes in the Great Plains, blizzards in the north, droughts SW, landslides on the west coast, and volcanoes in the Cascades, and Rockies

This is a war game, if you want the extra thrill of having your turf destroyed unexpectedly I suggest making some enemies and getting involved in a war. There are plenty of mobs out there who can be just as devastating as any hurricane or tsunami.

Maybe a "forecasting" header that's past "mob". It could have a real time radar like the Weather Channel, and when your turf is in a part of storm, depending on how severe, those turfs temp. drop in income, and a very severe storm could knock out a turf permanently.

How about the turfs don't get destroyed. They just get knocked out commission
