The Poster Campaign action is another of the early actions to gain support in the areas in which you deploy it. Depending on the area you use it, you should generally see a 25-40 point (out of 100) increase in your support ratings, although this can rise or lower depending on whether it was successful and the level of the action that the person performing the action has.
Slider Bar, available for a few seconds near the start of the action. You can choose to spread a message of Capitalism, Freedom or Solidarity; your choice should depend on the area you choose and your faction ideology.
Depending on who and what you choose as variables to the action, what you see on screen may well differ from my screenshots. This walkthough shows you how the action unfolds - for specific game help and hints about actions see other parts of my site or the manual. The ingame tutorial will also help.

Having a great stroll in the park today... but all good things must come to an end... it's time to get to work and set up some actions... |
 |
As always, we click on the faction member who can do the action, and click on the action itself after checking out the various costs required. |
 |
We are directed to the map screen... |
 |
... where as normal we are asked to choose a place to deploy the action. This yellow (wealth) district would be a good place to set it off as we will get a bonus 20% points due to our faction ideology. |
 |
This Force area would incur no penalty... |
 |
... but this influence area would. See other sections of my site for the Force/Influence/Wealth links. |
 |
Our campaign has been added to the time slot. If we were properly playing there would be loads of things to do now, but as we are not... |
 |
... let's chill out on the street corner. |
 |
This burning oil drum should provide some warmth... |
 |
...from the cold air of the very early morning. Lovely smoke and fire effects. |
 |
OK - time to press on. |
 |
Here is my faction guy at the start of the action... where's he off to? |
 |
Under some trees, obviously. |
 |
Out comes the chunky mobile. Don't you just love the shadow effect on the ground? |
 |
*chat chat chat* |
 |
*click* |
 |
And back in the pocket. Now what was that about? |
 |
Ah - now it becomes clear. My man is too clever to go out doing manual work like this in broad daylight... he's paid some other guy to do it for us! Here he is with his red bag. |
 |
Let's get to work... |
 |
But what message to portray to the masses? Freedom? |
 |
Capitalism? |
 |
Or solidarity? Yeah - let's stick with that. |
 |
The action continues with another (possibly random) camera angle. |
 |
Out comes the paste! |
 |
Slap it on!. |
 |
Good and thick! |
 |
And - it must be magic. All the posters, including those in the distance, have been transformed. Notice the fist symbol? This is because we chose solidarity. A dove would be the symbol for the freedom message, and a dollar sign for capitalism. |
 |
A quick tie of the shoelaces... |
 |
... a turn... |
|
... and trugs off. |
 |
And from a distance... there he goes. Quite a short action - and to be fair as there is little that changes in the proceedings, there is nothing more to say...! |
