They are led by Touissaint Louverture, under whom their default colors are Blue and Red, their capital is Port-au-Prince, their civilization symbol is six draped flags of the country, three on each side, which are located behind a palm tree and cannons, similar to the coat of arms ot Haiti and their Main Theme is a combination of "Fini Les Colonies" and "Ti Carole". Has a tier 2 starting bias towards Bananas, Citrus, Cocoa, Cotton, Coffee, Dyes, Incense, Olives, Silk, Spices, Sugar, Tea, Tobacco and Wine.

Joke Concept: Newspaper Headlines!

The newspaper is an instrumental device that has shaped how people get their information, and there's a notable absence of it in the Civ games. Not anymore. Now, once Printing is unlocked, a civilization is able to make the Printing Press, which allows them to get their information through News Headlines. These Headlines are only exclusive to news of YOUR civilization. However, once the Industrial Era is reached, News from all over the world is available to you.

Printing Press

Built in the City Center. 310 Production. Allows the availability of News Headlines.

Examples of News Headlines

Each News Headline has a large eye-grabbing message and further information below it. An example has been provided for each. Note that for news exclusive to your civilization, the writing will be more biased.

WAR!- War has been declared on your civilization.

"Bloodthirsty warlord Alexander attacks Tromso in stunning surprise attack"

WE'RE OFF!- War has been declared on another civilization

"Norwegian troops march off to liberate the people of Rome from Trajan's evil"

HAZZAH!- Enemy civilization's capital has been captured

"Rome falls to Norwegian infantry"

CAPITAL FALLS!- Our capital has fallen

"Nidaros falls to the enemy"

NEW SCIENTIFIC BREAKTHROUGH- Our scientists have unlocked a Technology before anyone else has

"Norwegian ingenuity gives way to Ballistics"

NEW CULTURAL INNOVATION- Our greatest minds have come up with a new Civic before anyone else has

"Norwegian ingenuity gives way to Scorched Earth"

GREAT MIND FINDS ROOTS IN OUR COUNTRY- A new Great Person has been retired

"Brilliant Norwegian artist Van Gogh creates his final masterpiece"

NEW BELIEFS IN OUR NATION- A new Religion has made itself the majority in one of our cities

"The teachings of Siddhartha Gautama come to Oslo"

OUR BELIEFS SPREAD- We convert a new foreign city to our beliefs

"The city of Mbanza Kongo converts to the teachings of Norwegian prophets"

BRILLIANT BUILDING CONSTRUCTED- A wonder has been built in our cities

"Stunning castle of Alhambra built in Nidaros'

Examples of News Headlines, Part 2

These headlines are less biased and more for the world in general.

'Macedonian leader Alexander declares war on Georgia'

'Cyrus of Persia surprise attacks Paris, capture feared'

'Mbanza Kongo falls to Hungarian invaders'

'Korean scientists discover the secrets of Rocketry'

'Brazilian musician Vivaldi composes final piece'

'Greek city of Corinth converts to Islam'

A part 2 will be coming soon, with some more ideas I've got.

Complain and i will improve your opinions

How is it that an AI player can finish a wonder in 30 turns, presumably with the same starting level as me with regards to Civics and Research, when it takes me 40 to build the same wonder?

It's very annoying to say the least...unless I am doing something really wrong here, I just don't get it. I am trying for a cultural or religious victory and these wonders are a huge part of it. If that's the way the game was designed, then I think the Devs need to take a look at that.

The Argentinian people represent a civilization in Civilization VI. They are led by EvIta, under whom their default colors are Blue and Orange, their capital is Buenos Aires, their civilization symbol is the Sun of May, present on the flag of Argentina and their Main Theme is based on "Gracias A La Vida". They have a tier 5 starting bias towards Furs, Ivory, Truffles, Honey, Deer, Sheep and Cattle and a tier 3 starting bias towards horses.

Argentina (Nuevo Cancionero): Great Works of Music give +100% culture and tourism. The capital gains +25% production towards districts, buildings, projects and civilian units and +15% production towards wonders.

Evita (Los Descamisados): Cities receive +1 housing, amenity and loyalty for each district and wonder they have. Tiles cost 50% less gold to purchase.

Can build Camps and Pastures in their specific resources and can clear terrain, both these actions cost 1 build charge and can also remove tile improvements, this action doesn't cost a build charge but the Gaúcho needs to have atleast 1 build charge to do it. Camps and Pastures built by a Gaúcho give +3 gold. Receives +5 combat strengh if within 4 tiles of a Camp or Pasture and is unlocked with Nationalism.

Tanguería: Argentinian unique building of Argentina that replaces the Broadcast Center. Costs 440 production, 1760 gold and needs 3 gold to maintain. Gives +2 culture, +2 great musician points, +1 great artist point and a citizen slot. This building has 2 slots for Great Works of Music; doesn't gain bonuses from power; all camps and pastures in a city with a Tanguería gain +2 gold and tourism equal to it's gold output and is unlocked with Opera and Ballet.

So basically, this is a concept that starts in the year 1492, and several historical colonial nations must battle for supremacy in an epic showdown. There are also playable Native American tribes, which are much more difficult but also very fun to play as.

Special Mechanics:

Explorers (Europeans only): Explorers are basically mega-buffed scouts, and each European nation has a historical set of them that they can recruit. Each European nation also starts with one explorer. Explorers can be sent on missions to explore a specific area, such as Greenland, Caribbean, Bermuda, etc.

Medicine Men (Natives only): Medicine Men are special units recruitable by all native nations. They can be used to find unguarded explorers and kill them, every time they do that you get a lump sum of gold. However, medicine men are vulnerable to conquistadors (more on them later) and can be killed.

Conquistadors (Europeans only): Conquistadors, previously only available to Spain are now available to all nations. They can kill medicine men, do a trade with natives (giving both sides some gold) and be attached to an explorer to protect them from medicine men.

Guides (Natives only): Guides are recruitable by all native nations. They are able to trade, like conquistadors can, and can also be attached to medicine men to prevent them from being killed. Guides have less combat strength than conquistadors (5 less) but more movement points (2+.)

Misc: Map of Western Europe, the Atlantic and americas (americas can be randomized or kept historical,) and There is a new action, known as “form colonial nation,” which creates a fully loyal city-state like entity in cities you have selected. Technology is much slower to advance due to the turns being less extended, and city states already exist and cannot be removed from the game. Natives have a different military system, shown later in the concept.

For Natives:

Have at least 5 cities and have defeated at least one colonial nation and one native nations while having at least 1000 Faith with no other existing native nations meeting this criteria.

Special Unit system for Natives:

Natives have Classical Era troops. However, every time they encounter a new European power, ally with one, gain suzerainity of a city state or create a city they gain “combat technology.” The higher the combat technology is the stronger native troops are. Once it reaches 100% they will be at the same strength as Europeans. Also, natives can only construct post-medieval era buildings after encountering at least 3 European powers.

Game is 1492 (Columbus discovers America)-1776 (Beginning of American Revolution) MAX. 1 turn=1 year

Mine was with Japan with a culture victory having to battle Russia for Great Works the entire game.

I could only think of Bob Hawk as a leader but I feel he is too modern for Civilisation.

Well... I don't know how to call these cases, but what I meant by "multi-leader" is a leader who leads more than 2 civilizations, like Eleanor of Aquitaine and Kublai Khan.

Constantine I - Byzantine, Roman

Leader Bonus - Edict of Milan

• Domestic Trade Route connected to the capital provides 2 Faith, 1 Culture, and 1 Production per turn to the sending city. +100% to these bonuses when the sending city is the conquered one, +100% to these bonuses if two cities believe in the same Religion, and +100% to these bonuses if the Religion was founded by Constantine. (In total, the bonuses can be stacked up to 8 Faith, 4 Culture, and 4 Production.)

• Shrine increases 1 Trade Route capacity if the city doesn't have a Market or a Lighthouse.

Agenda - In Hoc Signo Vinces

• Focuses on founding and spreading Religion. Dislikes civilizations that are his neighbors, especially when they believe in different religions. Likes civilizations that are not his neighbors or believe in the same Religion.

Charles V - Dutch, German, Spanish

Leader Bonus - Europa Regina

• - "adjacency bonus of Commercial Hub X 4" % Gold and Faith cost of purchasing Land military unit in the capital or a city believes in the same Religion with the capital.

• Land military unit purchased in a city stated above starts with the "adjacency bonus of Industrial Zone(or Hansa) X 6" Experience.

One of the new elements of Civ 6 compared to prior games is the distinctive Leader Bonus, which reflects each leader's achievements. It does, however, have certain restrictions. Some Leader Bonuses can't convey the leaders' entire accomplishments due to the game's balance.

Matthias Corvinus of Hungary is a fine example of this. He's a formidable warlord in official Civ 6, commanding a massive mercenary army and the Black Army. But Matthias was not a simple warlord in real life. He also was a Renaissance king. He built the Bibliotheca Corviniana, a notable royal library, patronized many intellectuals, and took an interest in construction projects.

So here, I'd like to share the "Matthias Corvinus Persona Pack" design, which focuses on Matthias' cultural achievements.

Leader Bonus: Bibliotheca Corviniana

• +50% Production while constructing Library, University, or Research Lab.

• Library has 2 Great Works of Writing slots. When these slots are filled, Library, University, and Research Lab provide the same amount of Culture with Science(does not boosted by Rationalism). After researching Flight, these buildings provide the same amount of Tourism with Culture.

• Each level of walls provides 1/2/3 Science and Culture per turn. After researching Flight, walls provide the same amount of Tourism as well.

Agenda: Renaissance King

• Focuses on building high Culture and Science output. Likes civilizations with low Tourism output and dislikes civilizations with high Tourism output.

Debate thread.

Civ 5 and 6 are the latest additions to the age old Civ franchise. They were the 2 which gave the series its immense popularity. So, please state which game is better and give reasoning. Please do not state in this thread which one is better if you have only played 1 or neither.

In my opinion, Civilization 5 is the better one and also the best Civ game. First off, the animations are less cartoony and more realistic, leaders aren’t obscure leaders who most people without a historical knowledge don’t know about, and the unrealistic district thing was not present. Districts are unrealistic because a city would not span out a huge amount of tiles, nor would it span possibly an entire island or peninsula. Workers are also more realistic, instead of there being build points you take time to finish an improvement and the worker never dies, unless you disband it. I am also going to start making more Civ 5 concepts on this fandom, which I have previously refrained from doing due to no one playing the game. So yeah, that’s my opinion, what’s yours?

Unit the legion what is your favorite civilization
