The capture-to-citizen route
Weaken an enemy in the field, capture them rather than killing them, and return them to the base.
The prison system reduces their resistance through fear, indoctrination or other measures until they can be converted into citizens or labour.
What to verify in your build
Capture recipes, success chances and resistance thresholds shift between Early Access versions.
Confirm the current values in the build you are playing before relying on a specific conversion strategy.
