The Great Londoner Eviction: A Frostpunk Survival Guide (Because Let's Face It, They're a Bit Much)
Ah, the Londoners. Those charming folks who waltz into your frozen city with top hats and complaints, demanding soup kitchens and heated sidewalks while you're just trying to keep everyone from turning into popsicles. Let's be honest, city leader, sometimes you just gotta evict these posh pests. But how? Worry not, for I, your friendly neighborhood guide (who may or may not have questionable morals), am here to help you achieve a Londoner-free Frostpunk!
Option 1: The "Stiff Upper Lip and a Cold Shoulder" Approach
- Subheading 1: Become Ebenezer Scrooge (But Colder)
Forget carols and cheer! Embrace the Order path and crank up those working hours. Who needs discontent when you've got productivity? The Londoners will be too busy building your glorious ice palace to whine about gruel. Just be prepared for potential frosty uprisings (pun intended). - Subheading 2: The House of Prayer (Because Maybe They Just Need Jesus...of the Cold)**
Faith is a powerful tool, my friend. Build enough houses of prayer and crank up the sermons. Maybe the Londoners will see the error of their complaining ways and find solace in the icy embrace of the Frostpunk deity. (Disclaimer: Not guaranteed to work. May result in a chorus of "Hallelujah" as they freeze to death.)
Option 2: The "Hope is Our Only Weapon" Approach
- Subheading 1: Soup Kitchens and Smiles
The Londoners may be picky, but they're human...mostly. Shower them with soup kitchens, medical care, and even a Fighting Pit for some morbid entertainment. Keep hope high and they might just forget about their fancy London ways and become productive citizens...or at least stop complaining quite so much.
Option 3: The "Let Them Talk Themselves Out" Approach (For the Patient Leader)
- Subheading 1: The Power of Passive-Aggression This is a slow burn, folks. Let the Londoners hold their little meetings. They'll eventually run out of steam...and followers. Just keep discontent and hope in check and eventually, they'll see the error of their ways and rejoin the fold. (Warning: May require copious amounts of tea. Not provided by the city.)
Remember: There's no one-size-fits-all approach. Experiment, adapt, and maybe even **(whisper it) ** eliminate a few Londoners (SHHHHH) to send a message. Just make sure you don't get caught. Nobody likes a dictator...much.
FAQ - Londoner Eviction Edition
How to stop the Londoners from gaining followers?
- Keep hope and discontent balanced. Build watchtowers and houses of prayer for a morale boost.
Can I just ignore them?
- Not entirely. Ignoring them will make them more discontent, but constantly giving in to their demands isn't much better. Find a happy medium.
Is there a way to make them leave peacefully?
- (Technically) Yes, with the Faith path. Keep hope high enough, and they might eventually decide your icy city is better than the alternative.
Help! I accidentally caused a Londoner uprising!
- The Order path can help quell rebellions with an iron fist...or a well-placed steam cannon.
Is there a way to win the game with the Londoners?
- Absolutely! They can be a valuable source of manpower. The key is managing their needs alongside those of your original citizens.
