How to Unlock Laws

Build the Council Hall

In order to unlock Laws, you first have to build a Council Hall in your city. Once the construction is finished, it will immediately start your first Council Session which is your only way of passing down Laws that will benefit your city.

How to Pass Laws

Laws are Passed by Majority Rules

In order for a Law to be passed, you need votes from majority of the Delegates to support them. This means that if you have 100 people in the council, you need at least 51 delegates to pass the Law you proposed.

Negotiate for More Votes

In Frostpunk 2, you can negotiate with certain Factions to acquire their votes in exchange for terms you can fulfill for them. These terms consists of passing a certain law they want, researching their idea in the Idea Tree, or constructing a specific building.
