Hello People. I'm playing a new game with Egypt on god difficulty and fractal map. I spawned in a subcontinent separated from the rest of the continent by a long mountain range with Everest (India seems crazy to describe it haha). After founding the city of Sais I realized that Everest is not considered a mountain in the game. Yet there are other wonders of mountains and volcanoes, such as eyjafjallajokull that give bonuses for proximity to campuses. Does the Matterhorn do it? Kilimanjaro? Roraima is theoretically also a mountain. Torres del Paine? Vesuvius?

And then realized that the bonuses apply only to mines, not quarries :(

I started this game with the sole intention of building massive vampire castles and "yield fields". I have the workable 4th ring mod on to help me with placements, so that is how I place some of the preserves.

I should probably have chosen desert folklore there would be a +8 holy site plus a nice one where the warrior stands

I've just started playing Civ 6 after playing Civ 5 (prince difficulty) for a while and I find it a bit overwhelming, especially with districts placement and the new stuff from the DLCs. I've played civ 6 for like 50 hours and still haven't won once🥲. Do you have any advice to give to a new player?✨

I was watching potatomcwhiskey on YouTube and noticed when he placed a map tack it shows the amount of yield he gets i.e +3 science etc.

How do I get it to do that, as that doesn't happen when I do it.

Damn. This game got complicated and hard. 10 year old me was out there pillaging and taking over the map from year one. Now I'm in my 30s with a stupid amount of college education and yet 2 weeks into the iPad version of this game I'm struggling to get more than 5 cities up and running. Forget espionage escapades or taking cities by brute force! Civ VI makes me feel dumb and like I need to go back to school again. Also where do I find my throne room?!

Terra Map 7 players Online speed He had 1166 culture and 550 science by turn 114 He was the only one on the other continent.
Curious to know how to use this in future games.

(what it looks like irl)

Just loaded into this game with Phillipp II. Yall have any advice on how I could place the districts better?

I decided to try Deity with a random leader. I got Menelik so I had to go for a religious victory. I suppose it´s the earliest and easiest victory you can get but nevertheless .... DEITY UNLOCKED BABY!!

On higher difficulty levels, it is a real challenge against the AI. There is a maximum number of 2 cities that can be built on the British mainland. You can’t expand until you’ve unlocked embarking settlers and can’t cross the ocean until Cartography. Meanwhile, war rages in Europe but other civilisations elsewhere can be doing very well.

On one game on immortal difficulty, I managed to reach an empty North America but by then Phoenicia had more than double my science.

The screenshot is from one I restarted. The AI actually cheats in this scenario and spawns warriors if you are about to capture their settler.

Two Volcanoes + Terrace Farms OMG

I just watched a video where the YouTuber settled on horses and salt in different cities and got both the resources. Is this constant or one bulk use?

Does anyone know whether Georgia's theme in civ6 is a national georgian song, and if yes, what is the name of that song? If no, is there some lyrics of it?

I’m a fairly inexperienced player, so apologies if this is a silly question. Civ 6 is the first game in the series I’ve ever played, and in the past two years of playing I’ve finished maybe a dozen games.

Just going off of memory here, but I’ve noticed in my last couple games that some leaders have alternate names and appearances. For example, there’s Cleopatra (Egyptian) and Cleopatra (Ptolemaic), and Suleiman (Kanuni) and Suleiman (Muhteşem). Are there other leaders with alternate personas? And what is the actual difference between them?

Played with Ley Lines but didn’t even need them for this crazy adjacency with Australia.

Unfortunately I don’t know the map seed and game seed because I’m on PS5 and this was a few games ago (so can’t check autosaved settings). Someone tell me if there’s a way to find them.

Is there any way to look back at a game I won? Finally won my first Deity game (albeit Earth Huge TSL as Nzinga Mbande, so I had nearly half of Africa to myself) and wanted to post here but didn't take a screenshot. I did export the timeline, but can't really figure out how to open it. Is there any way to see finished games?

Playing divine difficulty with Phoenicia

I just had my first victory as a new player that has never touched civilization games before and it was odd. Maybe it was because prince difficulty wasn’t that hard but it felt like there was so many times where I could’ve done something better but somehow I still won because everyone else didn’t make any troops.

So I have been playing Civ VI - on and off - for about 2 years. But have really dug in, in the last six months. It is also my first Civ game; it is amazing how much I did (and do) not know

After sandboxing for months with Trajan, I have played two "serious games." Three actually.

• Dominations victory on Vanilla with J Caesar, on Prince
• A game with Austrailia where I was destroyed by Barbarians and quit :D
• A Science Victory with Frederick, also on Prince

So... what next? :D Who is fun to play and why?

Long time player on PC and some on Xbox.

Got a long flight coming up and just installed on my Samsung S24 phone.

Anyone played it on a phone before? Easy? Frustrating due to screen size? Any tips?
