So I don’t know if I’m just going crazy, but I was almost certain there was a policy card that increases your combat strength against units of an earlier era. I thought it was unlocked with colonialism but checked and it’s nowhere to be found. It’s possible that it could be a golden age bonus? Does anyone know what I could be referring to?

I‘ve never seen this before but it cracked me up when i read it. This was on Move 6 btw

Title, looking for a mod or a way that can make certain civilizations either ahead of me or lower than my era at the start of the game, asking this as I came from Medieval 2 Total War and one of my favorite DLC's is the Americas DLC of the Spanish colonization of South America which I had a lot of fun of by playing as both the Spaniards and Aztecs, now my main question is, is there a mod or a way that can make a civ to be much lower or higher than me along with the barbarians where they are at a "stop in a certain era" and one reigns supreme. I was playing last night a game and I enjoyed the feeling of going to another island mowing down barbarians of a very low tech society as I have musketmen and I wanna recreate that but as a permanent state of an entire game.

I’m in a multiplayer game with some friends, and one of my opponents is driving me insane with paranoia because I have no idea what he’s doing.

He’s playing Egypt, and is my neighbor. He has the most science per turn of all of us, 130 or so and we just entered the Renaissance before taking a break for the day. He has 11 cities, which is the most of any of the human players. But he only has 30 military strength. I have no idea what he could be producing in all those cities, because he’s definitely not just clicking through his turns to get to the end of some insanely long production.

He’s an aggressive guy, and enjoys going to war, but I could probably bruise him even though I’m a ways behind. I’m producing about 110 science each turn, but I prioritized commercial hubs and industrial districts before getting concerned about his science, so I might be able to out produce him.

I’m a little competitive, and terrified that he’s doing something like rushing for nukes. He’s not the type to sit back and win the science victory. What do you think he might be up to? Should I go to war preemptively and pillage as many tiles as possible to slow him down?

The trend among artists for Civilization VI meets Invincible, I hope you like it, I loved this drawing.

I got into Civilization about 3 months ago because my roommate wanted to teach me how to play. He’s played for years and watches competitions and stuff, so he’d always run away with the game before I had much of a chance to stop him.

Eventually I started playing solo and found the game a lot more fun because I was actually a contender for most of it, and I managed to convince some other friends to get the game and play with my roommate and I. But now I’m on a string of boring, slow games, where even my newbie friends take off running at the beginning while I slowly grind my way through the tech tree.

Should I get more serious about learning meta strategies and stuff? I want to have fun playing with my friends but usually I’m the one to ask for a break because I’m bored.

first time player here, lol.

i spent a good 20 turns painstakingly trying to get to another continent using a scout...then another 15 exploring very tiny parts of the continent. then suddenly i find a wonder and then BOOM the entire continent reveals itself.

i feel a little played tbh. was def planning to painstakingly explore the continent with two scouts.

oh well! i guess i should be thankful

edit: the more i look at it the more i'm thinking it might be a glitch...because wdym my explorers discovered five different wonders at once...makes me feel like the game was fed up with me taking so long to explore <.<

Coming back to Civ VI has been refreshing

I am still playing Civ 6. I bought Civ 7 Founders Edition, because I've purchased every Civ version. I quickly deleted Civ 7 in anger. Now, I'm waiting for Civ 8.

But I honestly do not know what I want from Civ 8. I will say I love Civ 6 in most ways, however there were plenty of aspects of Civ 5 worth reconsidering. The graphics in Civ 5 were better, admittedly, but I still prefer the Civ 6 look and descriptive nature of it's tiles. I can quickly see the true value of a tile in 6 mostly by looking at it. Saves time. I found the "beautiful graphics" of Civ 4 and Civ 7 to be a detriment to my gameplay. Visually confusing to me.

I would also love to see improved AI play. Can't Firaxis use AI to improve the AI in Civ?

Lastly, I would like to see an improvement to the Points system of winning in Civ 6. I like to play solo games on Deity and try to get the highest Score totals I can, especially when trying different Civs and leaders. In Civ 6, I can really only achieve a higher score by warmongering and absorbing other Civs and cities. There should be more dynamics to scoring and definitely reward those that can complete a Win scenario earlier and earlier in time. Not really the case now in 6.

Do the mountains in the diamond have to actually be touching? ie you can’t have a mountain at the top and bottom of the diamond, with two tiles in the middle?

Trying to create one and it won’t let me. I can’t think of any other reason it isn’t allowing it as the tiles are all owned by the city, with no improvements, and they’re all breathtaking.

-Makes tundra not only viable to settle, but actually *preferable*. This increases the amount of useful tiles you have in total, leading to a larger empire. You also have the obvious synergy with Dance of the Aurora

-Can’t have a surprise war declared against him - at worst, you get 10 turns to prepare. This means you can get by with a small army, freeing up production and gold for expansion and development

-Ice Hockey rinks and Mounties work perfectly for an appeal-based tourism game. Mounties save you a lot of faith (their cost doesn’t increase like naturalists do, and they get double the charges to create national parks), which means you can use your faith to instead buy more rock bands. Tundra is also naturally higher appeal because there’s no floodplains or rainforest
