GeneratoriumMuch of the light and power in the underhive relies on taps into energy conduits or barely functioning generators. Those that control the source of such power can let it flow… or cut it off at a whim.Special: If their gang controls this Territory,
a player may choose to stall the generators,
temporarily cutting the power to the area in which a battle is taking place and plunging it into darkness. The player may declare they will do this at the beginning of any Priority phase, before the roll for Priority.

For the remainder of the battle, the Pitch Black rules (see page 193) are in effect. However, at the start of each End phase, there is a chance that the generators will automatically restart and the lights flood back. At the start of each End phase, before making any Bottle checks, the player that controls this Territory rolls a D6. If the result is a 5or more, the generators restart and the Pitch Black rules immediately cease to be in effect. If the roll is a1-4, the generators stay silent.
