The growing mold scares away customers from the strip mall at h1. All the stores close and a Dollar General moves in.

Note: Zuck has been defederated! No one on the board is aware of his existence. If zuck moves, his moves do not affect the rest of the board. He can be impacted indirectly by the board, but since other pieces can’t see him, they can’t directly impact him.
