Clarification required for power-zones

As it seems, (:power)-zones produce 100 (:power), but since the zone costs 10 (:power), this zone only produces a net 90 (:power) to use for other zones. This is not clear enough as-is, since the wiki page Power does not state anything of the like. Power Zone does have the reference, but only had it in the sidebar. Brend has added a small extra tidbit, but I still think the explicit refence to '90' (:power) is needed.

Or, alternatively, make the zone 110 (:power)...

We could mention this on the power page as well, that might help out new players. (I've added it as a remark on the power page is well now, with the 'Every zone requires 10 (:power)' statement.)

I'm opposed to making power zones generate 110 (:power), as this breaks the "base production is 100" meta-rule.

I think that this will become less of an issue once the power checker is up and running, as it will take into account the fact that every zone costs 10 (:power).

I think the current clarifications are most helpful. Let's see how the power tool affects the need for any further additions to this.
