What I get when I hope for Mount Roraima starting point

One of my favorite natural wonders in the game. I rarely get it, but when I do, I get it surrounded by mountains. Although, it would be a cool place to visit in real life if it looked like this.

How in the world do y’all do it? How are the upper difficulty levels easy for you?

Everyone on here talks about playing on Immortal or Deity and them still crushing it and I don’t get it. I struggle on Prince and sometimes even Warlord. What’s the secret? What am I doing wrong?

Disclaimer: I am not really good at this game, I understand that already.

Which mods are considered the best or "must haves" and should also work for LAN multiplayer games.

Started getting back into Civ Vi after a major break and I can't remember which mods I used to use. Some of the ones I considered are broken/out of date. I feel like I'm missing some features I used to love and it might be nice to add a little mod spice to our Civ nights. (Everyone attending will be installing these mods.)

Thank you.

So... what happens to Canada in Civ VI when it becomes the 51st state?

I mean, hear me out—let’s say the inevitable finally happens and the USA "peacefully annexes" Canada. Would they just remove Canada as a playable civ in Civilization VI?

Would Wilfrid Laurier be demoted to a mere governor? Or maybe a unique American governor, giving +1 Production to hockey rinks?

Would Canada still be able to make diplomatic favor, or would they just have to do whatever Washington says?

And most importantly, will America finally get hockey rinks as a unique improvement? Asking for a friend.

How do I play this game?

I know this is probably impossible to answer in a Reddit post, but I have tried 3 times now to play this game and just cannot figure it out. I have experience with other similar games like Age of Empires, Tropico, Total War etc. but I just don’t get Civ.

I understand that you can win by technology, religion, warfare, or culture. I usually go for warfare as it seems the most straightforward for a new player. But once you build 3-4 cities, it starts taking like 38 turns to produce a single troop. Basically it seems like any town besides your first 2-3 are completely pointless outside of 30+ day research, and I have no idea how to get this number down.

Q’s to Ask Yourself Before Posting?

What else do you think would clear up confusion?Before posting a “whats going on here/why cant I” question, ask yourself:

  1. Does the civilization I’m playing have any passive effects (affects?) that I should know about
  2. Do I currently have any policy cards that might forbid me from accomplishing something.

For the OG players: How long did it take for CIV 6 to be worth it (for a good price)?

Now that CIV VII is right around the corner and selling for an eye watering price on steam, I'm wondering how long I will have to wait until it's worth it, I remember hearing that it took CIV VI a while to get to a good price but I don't know the specifics since I got into it a lot later.

Best Two Human Player, Rest AI, Setups?

Hey all --

My brother got me into Civ 6 about a month ago. He has played solo games since Civ 1. We play a game each night and mix up different game setups. Do you have an suggestions for really fun setup that includes two human players and the rest AI? Appreciate the input in advance!

Can’t play all way through

I have been trying to rack up wins with different leaders on hall of fame board, but honestly especially with domination, it feels like I’ve won way before I get that victory. Kind of feels like a slog. What do you all do? Do you stop playing at some point and just call it a win?

Civ VII is gonna suck and Im scared its going to kill the series

Just listen to all the Civ players on Youtube and especially to the devs. They sound more like they are trying to convince themselves its a great game rather than us. There are so many predatory practices with this launch I fear it will make some people quit the series entirely and either only play the older games or move on to other games with their channels/stream pages etc…

The game seems way too out there. Like they tried to change things too much, too fast and people are already skeptical. Once you add the fact that the game is clearly unfinished at launch its a disaster waiting to happen.

Personally sticking with Civ VI and possibly even dabbling back into V full time.

Help me play a ‘Best of’

As we get ready for 7, I want to play a few of my favs. Or maybe a game I've never done before. Last night was Hammurabi (so fun!) 🤩 over the weekend I played Victoria and just steamrolled production.

What's next?! I might do a Jao OCC next? What the essentials that need to play before I switch over?

Best Preserve Clump Yet

I enjoy me a good Multi-Preserve Combo and this one is one of my best. Spawned in the middle of this huge forest, will put seed in Comments.

R5: Adjacent Preserves compliment each other, making shared tiles have even greater yields

Friend can’t join my multiplayer lobbies on Civ 6

I play Civ 6 on the PS5 and i’m trying to get a lobby set up with 2 of my friends, 1 has no issue joining and is able to get into the lobby no problem every time, but when my other friend tries it just says “retrieving host information” for about a minute before failing.

We’ve each reset out games, consoles, and internet connections but nothing seems to work. has anyone else had this issue and if so how did you fix it

Help with combat

I play Civ every month or two with my father, but I can never seem to actually combat well. We just play on prince difficulty so the bots aren’t too hard and we compete with each other, but since we’re playing with the dlc every time I try to take some land from an Npc loyalty gets in the way. How do I manage to keep a city from rebelling? I repair broken things, provide amenities, assign a gov’na, make a monument, station a unit, and even if there are my cities close to it it will rebel really easily. Should I just go for a scorched earth attack and raze while I go, send settlers later of is there something I’m missing for loyalty?

How can I buy units with gold? I seem to have much available and not enough production. I'm playing on Nintendo Switch.
