 +When a major event happens in GearCity. It is always best to put that event in the newspaper so that the players know what has happened. Newspaper event articles are generated with this News Tab. The other tabs in the Turn Events editor will not generate a newspaper article. So you must enter the article here for it to appear in the game.
 +
 +When the month and year is reached, the headline, article, and image will be entered into the newspaper.
 +
 +The following picture will break down the various parts of the News Tab:

The image must be in a Chromium 12 support format such as .jpg, .png, or .gif. File names are case sensitive. If the article does not have an image, you may leave this field blank.
