Okay guys, explain something to me because I've played Civ 4 and 5 but not at a high level, so I was never very good at specializing my cities as great people farms, science farms, trade hubs or what have you.

On Civ 6, is it a good strategy for every single one of your cities to have every single district type? Or is this a terrible idea? And which districts should you prioritize?

For example: I'm in a Sumeria game. I settled 3 cities, and they're all close to mountains - so it would make sense to get Campuses on all of them right? But what about encampments, holy sites, entertainment districts, etc? Which are most important, which should I build first or ignore, etc?

I feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of stuff you can be building at anyone time, and I quickly lose grasp of what should be my priority or how I should be specializing my cities. Earlier than that, I even have trouble deciding whether I want a builder, a monument, a granary, or what first.

Pls advice

Tell me about your current game, any story you would like to share?

Man, call them numales all you want but I miss having LAN parties. Even though I think multiplayer civ would be god-awful and wouldn't want to do it.

Last time I played a 4x multiplayer it was Age of Wonders Shadow Magic.

So how is Norway? Rome felt OP as shit and England's UA felt a litte awkward to use.

What's really dumb is placing a district then realizing you put it on the wrong tile, and it still doesn't let you undo the district construction. I didn't even hit next turn, but nope, can't do anything to replace it.

>On Civ 6, is it a good strategy for every single one of your cities to have every single district type?

Terrible idea unless you're going "Civ6-tall" and only have 4 or so cities.

Campuses are always generally useful because science is always good. I tend to only build one (Maybe two) encampments in high production cities so I can shit out units with a single strategic resource because they're so rare now. Holy sites I have no idea on since I've been ignoring religion, entertainment districts seem like mostly useless garbage but maybe they have more utility for larger empires with fewer luxuries.

As for when you build shit that varies from game to game. Since you get campuses fairly quickly they tend to be my first district, but after that it depends on what kind of game I'm playing. If I'm leaning heavily on war I usually won't even build an encampment any time soon since I'll be prioritizing cranking out more immediate units. Follow your heart, anon.

They're like a combination between campuses and neighborhoods. Want them near either mountains, forests, and nat wonders.

>>158323519
Entertainment Districts give you extra amenities if you're hurting for Luxury Resources and need to improve happiness.

Holy Sites give you more faith. Which is good for cheating at Great Person gains.

When you use a builder to remove forests or jungles, does the production get stored in case you're not building anything?
You know, to clear all the production before placing a district.

>>158324029

>>158323953
Not that that isn't a valid question, but it takes a couple of clicks to assign the production somewhere, why not just do that first?

Just noticed that legions can remove forests and get resources, there is any penalty for signing a border treaty with another civ and use legions to remove forests from their cities? it seems quite OP that you can get all that boost while reducing enemy production and the owner doesn't care

Okay. Thank you for answering

I'll ask one more thing:

How do you know when you've over committed to a war?
I got into a war with a neighbor near the end of my ancient age and it only ended after I began medieval age. The incurring war weariness penalty, I feel, probably fucked me over big time. I took their capital though, along with the pyramids.

Should I try to fight Blitz-like wars when I'm planning on conquering someone's capital, instead of something that drawn out? Or should I try to fight small wars to poke at their military power and then gradually escalate to the big one in a couple of centuries?

I have no idea how you madmen get away with declaring war and conquering cities in Ancient era. How do you even find the time as you're settling and doing stuff of your own?

When you take over someones capital and they funded a religion, and you have none...can't you just take their religion?

>>158324029
Because you think they are

Is radaring still in game?

>>158324126
Because I usually do that when building a district on that spot.
Unless I'm rushing wonders I'd rather have the steady per turn income woods and jungles generate.

>>158323192
I lived in a house with a bunch of dudes in college and we had a civ 5 lan party once. Turns out that combat came down to who was the quickest clicker, but got really fucking awkward because the unit cycling never let you use the units you wanted to use first. Needless to say we never tried it again.

>>158323823

It gets posted every thread but no one knows what it means.

>>158324279
They don't focus on other things.

The idea is you invest in massacring someone off the map so you have extra room to make up the deficit in your empire later. Early wars are investments in future prosperity.

>>158324451
You can turn of unit cycling
In civ v atleast

>>158324463
I didn't think the blind could post

>>158324280
No. Religious victory is tied to the original founder, not to the current owner of the Holy City.

there is no point playing solo, if you have friends good for you but I'm sure the game is going to get reworked massively, else it will just be shit

religion being all black or white, culture is meh and you'll get loads anyway, tall vs wide isnt even a debate, AI being arguably the most 'insert whatever adjective' ever

>>158324532
What is your rule of thumb when doing this? As in - how far away does someone have to be from your capital for you to say "alright, I'm taking him down in ancient era and that's all I'm doing" versus "naw fuck that he's too far away"

>>158322962

Knowing when you're over committed to a war is another general thing. War weariness can fuck you up (Especially if it makes your cities so pissed they start rebelling) but it might be worth it if you're gaining ground/cities on your opponent. Taking a capital with a wonder is a pretty good prize and is generally worth it, and is absolutely worth it if you're going for domination.

Going to war when you've got a plan and an army all lined up for a fast push is the ideal way to war in civ6. War weariness isn't gained strictly by being in war itself, it's gained by fighting battles, and is increased by fighting battles in enemy territory and increased even more by losing units. It reduces even during war if no battles are happening, it just reduces slower than if you're at peace. Small wars to poke military power is basically never worth it, especially if you're playing on anything above prince since the AI will be getting cheat-bonuses anyway.

Conquering stuff in the ancient era is mostly a conscious decision as opposed to expanding hard on your own. Instead of building a settler and shit you build a strong early military and take a pre-made city or two with some buildings already made. Some civs are obviously way better at doing that than others (Aztecs, Sumeria, etc) but even the other civs can pull it off if it's part of your plan. Otherwise you'll just want enough of a standing military to protect your own shit and guard settlers as you're expending.

Hope this helps.

If you take a city that's building a wonder, can you keep the progress on that wonder?

Who here has tried a religious victory? I just finished my first game with one and I found it incredibly easy to convert the rest of the world. Finished ~1700 AD in a marathon game, huge map. It seems like this is probably the fastest way to win the game against the AI if they aren't going to fight my apostle spam.

so theoretically you can get 126 extra production in a single city as a normal civ or 144 extra production in a city as japan from 6 tile bonus production off of factories+power plants (18 cities, not including the centre); assuming you're going for maximum bonus to a single city instead of maximum total bonus anyway

you get 1 city at the centre; 6 surrounding it; and another 12 surrounding them before the boost stops being in range
the 6 furthest cities are kinda fucked though; they only get 2 boosts when they're being build (so 14/16 production; bit shit)

Shouldn't be. War weariness is based on battles, so there would have to be conflict going on.

That is what you get from using pig disgusting pinyin. Zhuyin is better because it makes retards not read it in english

>>158327661
Most of these pics you see are done by reducing the game to a window, opening up mspaint, then tracing it with the brush tool.

I don't know what fantasy universe you live in but most pirate groups don't upload updates until a big DLC comes out.

Maybe CIV 6 will be different since it's more popular.

>>158328702
The paradox game always had their updates posted quickly
and they only have a small following

True Start Location, in which Civs start where they were in real life on a world map

Does anyone want to crash filthyrobots games with me by playing Monty+1 and feeding cheap units into builders?

Is there a "fuck off forever" diplomacy option for certain civs? I don't need to see Egypt/Brazil/China denouncing me every 30 turns.

>>158328506
Altough pinyin has 1-to-1 relation to zhuyin it stops people from reading and thinking in their languages. For anyone who wants to pronounce it

You could go play CivCity

So, Civ 6....good or is it just not as good as Civ 5 till it gets a few expansions?

Don't know if i should bother getting it yet, I should imagine it feels lacking in features?

>>158329026

1. Whichever civs you enjoy playing
2. The ones you don't

>>158329026

>I can't think for myself

>>158329001
If that happens you pause the game and go around making a new sector, like in CK2.

I'd love to know what their deal is with maps. Once it actually gets into gameplay it runs fine, but that map loading screen is interminable.

ALRIGHT BOYOS

Give me your try-harding early game build orders please.
You can specify if it's for strong eco start, for going wide early, or for going conquering early.

Admittedly I'm a King-difficulty baddie, but this is what I've been using so far:

>Scout (use warrior and starting scout to look for goodie huts and city states like a madman, but sent warrior home relatively early for defense - maybe I get lucky with an extra scout or something like that)
>Slinger (or War Cart if I'm Sumeria)
>Settler
>Builder
>Monument

>>158329147
oh so i'll have to turn them into sectors
i'll keep my vassal as a seperate empire for now then, i want to make use of their units to help me get some bigger vassals before i turn them into sectors

>>158329026
Aztecs are the single best civ, followed by Scythia, then China, Greece (both) and Sumeria
All the others are irrelevant

>>158328702
Maybe if you bothered to search outside of tpb you'd find them. Slav sites upload the patches within a week unless the game is +3 months old, then they just post the patches monthly unless its a major patch.

Get a builder way earlier, after the Scout preferably, improve food/hammers on tiles your capital is working on, use last charge to cut down trees on tiles you're not going to be working (outside the city area is fine, for some reason it's full production boost as well)

Re-open the game

Last two are rare are shit unless you start in the desert and marshes are fucking useless as you can't build anything on them, it's too situational to be "best".

Do the AI ever get...smarter?

I'm admittedly playing on low difficulties (Prince atm) but the AI is a fucking joke. Once you build a few archers and whittle down their army, they cant do shit. They dont fight defensively, they dont commit to (counter)attacks, they dont hold high ground...I often will defeat a civilization without losing a single unit.

0-1 Frederick
2-4 Trajan
5-7 Pericles
8-9 Peter

No, I was like that for a while. Hint: you dont need to research everything. Half the stuff is useless if you dont need it. Pick a victory condition, pick out a few key techs you need for it and beeline towards those.
