I personally main Rome in my playthroughs.

So I've been offline for a while, but I just randomly had the urge to work on a Persona Pack I came up with about four years ago. Doing this for Civ6, not Civ7, as I do not have Civ7 and probably will not have Civ7 until it goes on sale. Original post here.

Leader: Gandhi

Personas: Mahatma and Hatya

Mohandas Gandhi, often referred to by the honorific Mahatma (Great Soul), is remembered largely for his non-violent methods. But some remember him for a more... violent approach to conflict. Enter Hatya Gandhi.

Leader ability (Mahatma): Satyagraha

+5 Faith for each met civilization (including India) that has founded a Religion and is not at war. Enemies receive double war weariness from fighting against Gandhi.

Leader agenda (Mahatma): Peacekeeper

Never declares wars for which he can be branded a warmonger, and likes peaceful civilizations. Heavily dislikes warmongers.

Leader ability (Hatya): Pokhran

Unlock the Manhattan Project with Military Science and Operation Ivy with Nuclear Fission. Uranium is revealed with Military Science. +40% Production increase to all nuclear armament projects, and nuclear weapons are 50% cheaper to maintain. Cities can launch nuclear weapons. Using nuclear weapons does not incur war weariness (or Grievances in Gathering Storm).

Leader agenda (Hatya): Smiling Buddha

Likes civilizations that use nuclear weapons whenever possible, and will try to do the same. Dislikes civilizations that do not use nuclear weapons.

Dialogue:

Gandhi is voiced by Pawan Shukla. He speaks Hindi, but switches to English in some of his lines.

Agenda Based Approval (Mahatma): "There is no shame in deterrence. Having a weapon is very different from actually using it."

Agenda Based Disapproval (Mahatma): "If you are so bloodthirsty, maybe it is better to put an end to your leadership." (यदि आप खून के इतने प्यासे हैं, तो आप के नेतृत्व को समाप्त करना ही बेहतर होगा. / Yadi aap khoon ke itne pyaase hain, toh aap ke netritva ko samaapt karna hi behtar hoga.)

Quote from Civiliopedia (Mahatma): "Live as if you were to die tomorrow; learn as if you were to live forever."

Agenda Based Approval (Hatya): "You and I are of one mind, and we will shake the world in our own way."

Agenda Based Disapproval (Hatya): "It is a sign of weakness to take up lesser arms to fight our battles. Strength lies in a far greater power."

Quote from Civiliopedia (Hatya): "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then you nuke them, then you win."

"Old" in the title of this post means Civilizations no longer exist today.

I want people to go down below into the comments and discuss what leader you think is the best for a culture victory. (I mean leader and civ combined)

(Please do not argue over each others opinions. Just agree to disagree in the case of an argument)

American ~ Byzantine

Canadian ~ French

Gallic ~ Indonesian

Japanese ~ Mongolian

Norwegian ~ Russian

Scottish

New Unique Unit: Gallowglass

• Replaces Man-At-Arms. Higher Melee Combat Strength (48 vs. 45).

• Receives +3 Melee Combat Strength when within 3 tiles from the city with more than 76 Loyalty. This bonus doubles for the city is at maximum Loyalty. Suffers -3 Melee Combat Strength when within 3 tiles from the city with less than 25 Loyalty. These effects are not stacked if there are more than two cities within 3 tiles and the highest value applied.

• Happy cities receive +30% Production while creating this unit. This bonus doubles for Ecstatic cities.

New Unique Unit: Kern

• Replaces Pikeman. Higher Melee Combat Strength (48 vs. 45).

• Receives one free Promotion when created, purchased, or upgraded from an earlier unit.

• Happy cities receive +30% Production while creating this unit. This bonus doubles for Ecstatic cities.

• Receives +2 Melee Combat Strength per each Promotion obtained. Receives +1 Movement per every 2 Promotions obtained.

New Unique Building: Crannog

• Replaces Lighthouse. Unlocked by Construction instead of Celestial Navigation.

• Grants +1 Food to nearby Lakes.

• Provides +1 Housing for each Lake and +0.5 Housing for each Coast near this city (up to 3).

New Unique Building: Dùn

• Replaces Ancient Walls. Provides +2 Production per turn if this city is built on Hills.

• Provides +2 Amenities if this city is built on Hills and a land military unit that does not belong to an earlier Era than the current World Era is garrisoned.

For Scotland, keeping cities happy is essential. And it now has another way to do so in this design. In addition to Production, Dùn provides Amenities when a land military unit is garrisoned in the city. Just remember to settle cities on Hills and upgrade the unit from time to time.

Again, maintaining cities happy is vital to Scotland. And now, it's so because of the two new Unique Units. Kern is created fast in happy cities and receives Combat Strength and Movement bonuses from promotions. Although it might be preferable to upgrade veteran Spearman to this unit, it's still a good idea to create it because it receives a promotion immediately.

Along with Kern, Gallowglass seals the military advantage of Scotland during the Medieval Era. This unit is also created fast in happy cities and receives a Combat Strength bonus if these cities are also loyal. There is no restriction that the loyal cities must be Scottish; you can use this unit on the offensive. However, pay attention to the newly conquered city because when the loyalty is low, this unit is no better than ordinary Man-At-Arms.

Lastly, with many ways to increase Amenities, you may want to grow your cities into megalopolises. If so, you might consider settling near Lake or Coast. Crannog grants additional Food to Lakes and provides Housing from nearby Lake and Coast. But since Scotland is unfamiliar with the waters, you may want to build some fleets in case the enemy invades.

The clever Scottish will keep their independent spirit till the end if you wisely use their new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization VI.

• Receives +1 Sight if obtained more than 1 Promotion. Can move after attacking if obtained more than 3 Promotions. Receives +1 Range if obtained more than 5 Promotions.

• Receives +2 Ranged Strength per each Promotion obtained.

New Unique Unit: Sagaris Axeman

• Replaces Swordsman. Lower Production cost (75 vs. 90). Requires 5 Iron to train.

• Receives a higher Melee Combat Strength bonus (10 vs. 5) vs. anti-cavalry units.

New Unique Building: Goldsmith

• Replaces Workshop. No Gold maintenance cost. Provides +2 Gold per turn and +2 Amenities.

• If no Luxury Resource exists in this city's territory, provides +1 additional Amenity.

New Unique Building: Hemp Smoke Tent

• Replaces Granary. Unlocked by Astrology instead of Pottery.

• Doesn't provide +1 Food per turn. Instead, provides +2 Faith per turn.

• If this city is Happy, provides +20% Production while constructing District or building within 2 tiles from the City Center and +10% Production while constructing Wonder within 2 tiles from the City Center.

• If this city is Ecstatic, provides +30% Production while constructing District or building and +15% Production while constructing Wonder.

• Each of these buildings decreases War Weariness by 3% (up to 45%).

Scythia is an aggressive Civilization that revolves around light cavalry units. Because of this, anti-cavalry units can be the bane. Sagaris Axeman perfectly solves this problem. It's quite cheaper than Swordsman and receives a double Combat Strength bonus against anti-cavalry units. If your neighbor relies on anti-cavalry units, create some of this and clear the way for the cavalry. This unit can even fight against Pikeman toe-to-toe while costing less than half of Production.

In the Medieval Era, Scythia now can create Amazon. This unit is similar to Immortal or Saka Horse Archer. Both units can make ranged attacks for the former, and for the latter, both units have 1 Range. However, unlike these units, Amazon can become even more potent by obtaining promotions. Mass-produce this unit if you prefer quantity over quality, and upgrade Horseman with promotion if you prefer quality over quantity.

In addition to the two Unique Units, Scythia also received two Unique Buildings in this design. Unlike Workshop, Goldsmith provides Gold and Amenities. Judging that Workshop requires 1 maintenance, you can count that this building provides +3 more Gold per turn than Workshop. Also, Amenity bonus is always appreciated by aggressive Civilizations like Scythia.

Amenity bonus also goes well with Hemp Smoke Tent. Like the Civ Ability of the Scottish, this building provides bonuses for happy cities. Maintaining your cities' happiness while you continuously attack your neighbors could be a little difficult, but the rewards will undoubtedly be enormous. And just in case, this building decreases War Weariness.

The wind in the steppe will always remind the spirit of the Scythians if you wisely use their new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization VI.

Spanish

New Unique Unit: Jinete

• Ranged Cavalry unit of the Medieval Era. Unlocked by Divine Right. 180 Production cost, 720 Gold cost, 3 Gold maintenance cost, 4 Movement, 35 Melee Combat Strength, 50 Ranged Combat Strength, 1 Range, 2 Sight. Requires 10 Horses to train. Upgrades to Field Cannon.

• Ignores enemy zone of control.

• Receive +1 Range in the territory of the enemy city following other religions.

• Killing a unit provides Faith equal to 50% of its Combat Strength.

New Unique Unit: Galleon

• Replaces Frigate. Receives +2 Combat Strength per each enemy unit within range (up to +15).

• Upon the enemy naval military unit or embarked unit moving to the tile within this unit's range, the unit immediately loses up to 2 Movement points. This effect does not stack if moving to the range of more than 2 Galleons, and occurs only once per each enemy unit.

New Unique Building: Bullring

• Replaces Arena. Grants +1 Faith and Culture to each Pasture in this city.

• If there is no Pasture in this city's territory, provides +2 Amenities.

New Unique Building: Cabildo

• Replaces Bank. Provides +5 Loyalty per turn if built in the Capital or the city follows the same Religion as the Capital.

• Provides +2 Food per turn if built in the city founded by Spain. Provides +3 Production per turn if built in the occupied city. Provides +2 Culture per turn if built in the Capital or the city on the same continent. Provides +3 Science per turn if built in the city on a foreign continent.

Conquistador is a mighty unit indeed, but it needs many things to use this unit properly. High amount of Science is required to unlock this unit quickly, and high amount of Culture is needed to unlock Government and Policy Cards such as Theocracy, Wars of Religion, and Faith to purchase religious units. However, while the Mission provides Science, Spain has no bonus directly related to Culture and Faith. However, Bullring now provides Culture and Faith from Pasture. Additional Amenity is also helpful to aggressive Civilizations such as Spain.

If it is proved that the conditions for using Conquistador are challenging to meet, Jinete can fill the role of the unit. This unit, unlocked one Era earlier, deals powerful damage from afar. This unit also provides Faith, which can be used for purchasing religious units for Conquistadors, from kill.

In addition to the two land Unique Units, Galleon contributes to claiming naval hegemony for Spain. This unit causes some trouble for enemy vessels by exerting some kind of modified zone of control. This unit also becomes stronger when there are more enemy units nearby.

Lastly, Cabildo is the true jewel of Spain. It contributes to maintaining the city by providing Loyalty and various yields, depending on the city's origin and location. Although controlling which yields will be given may be difficult, any of these bonuses will be helpful.

Spain will advance further beyond for its wealth and glory if you wisely use its new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization VI.

Sumerian

New Unique Unit: Aga-Ush

• Replaces Spearman. Available without any technological research. Lower Production cost (55 vs. 65). No Gold maintenance cost.

• Killing a unit provides Science and Culture equal to 25% of its Combat Strength.

New Unique Unit: Shublugal

• Replaces Archer. Receives +5 Melee Combat Strength, +7 Ranged Combat Strength, and +1 Movement when starting its turn within 2 tiles from Holy Site with Temple.

New Unique Building: Eduba

• Replaces Library. Lower Production cost (60 vs. 90).

• Provides +1 Science/Culture per turn upon researching/developing certain Technology/Civic before any other civilizations research/develop it (up to 3/3). This bonus Science and Culture applies to every Eduba, including those not yet built.

New Unique District: E-Gal

• Replaces Holy Site. Available without any technological research. May be purchased with Faith.

• Can't receive ordinary Adjacency Bonuses. Instead, receive 1 Faith per turn from each adjacent Ziggurat or District.

• Allows to purchase buildings placed in this District or Districts adjoins with this District with Faith (excluding the City Center).

• This District is not considered a specialty District and does not require Population.

It's no secret that Sumer should use War-Cart to go on the offensive as soon as possible. Now, however, it would be a fine idea to create some Aga-Ush, send this unit with War-Cart, and earn some Science and Culture by delivering the final blow with this unit. Sumer could widen the gap between itself and other Civilizations in this way.

Eduba is a cheaper Library by itself, but it provides additional Science and Culture whenever Sumer is the first to research specific Technology or Civics. Upon reaching the maximum, this bonus can't be ignored. Furthermore, it won't be too hard to obtain the upper hand early in the game, thanks to the Ziggurat and Aga-Ush.

Upon entering the Classical Era, Sumer loses its military advantage in the vanilla game. But in this design, its offense can be continued thanks to Shublugal. This unit replaces Archer, but since Holy Site with Temple strengthens this unit, you may consider this unit belongs to the Classical Era. With this buff, stats of Shublugal become suitable for the Classical Era unit, and the cost, of course, is not increased.

From the middle stage of the game and onwards, E-Gal contributes to maintaining the edge of Sumer. Among other effects, this District enables the purchase of buildings with Faith. And Sumer will have a good flow of Faith because this District is not a Specialty District, which means you can construct this in every city.

The first-came Sumer will get the last dance if you wisely use its new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization VI.

Swedish

New Unique Unit: Hakkapeliitta

• Light Cavalry unit of the Renaissance Era. Unlocked by Gunpowder. 280 Production cost, 1120 Gold cost, 4 Gold maintenance cost, 4 Movement, 55 Melee Combat Strength, 2 Sight. Requires 10 Horses to train. Upgrades to Cavalry.

• Ignores enemy zone of control.

• When starting its turn not adjacent to the enemy unit, make an extra attack with 40 Ranged Combat Strength when attacking the enemy unit. This extra attack doesn't effected from this unit's promotions or abilities and doesn't provide experience unless the enemy unit was killed by this (if so, this unit receives experience as if it made a ranged attack).

• Can move after attacking.

New Unique Unit: Sverige

• Replaces Ironclad. Lower Gold maintenance cost (3 vs. 5). Higher Movement (6 vs. 5). Higher Sight (4 vs. 3). No strategic resource requirement.

• Suffers -5 Combat Strength when attacking but receives +10 Combat Strength when defending.

New Unique Building: Royal Academy

• Replaces University. There are 3 varieties that provide different bonuses. Only one of these can be built per city.

• Art Academy: Provides +4 Culture per turn. Upon built, provides 12 Great Writer, Great Artist, or Great Musician points at random. This bonus increases to 24 in the Renaissance Era, 42 in the Industrial Era, 66 in the Modern Era, 96 in the Atomic Era, and 132 in the Information Era.

• Science Academy: Provides more Science per turn (6 vs. 4). Upon being built, triggers a random Eureka of Technology that belongs to earlier Eras than Sweden's current Era.

• War Academy: Provides +4 Production while creating units. Military units created or purchased in this city receive +25% combat experience.

New Unique Tile Improvement: Bastu

• Unlocked by Medieval Faires. Must be built on Tundra, Tundra (Hills), Snow, or Snow (Hills). Cannot be adjacent to another Bastu.

• Provides +1 Culture per turn per every 2 adjacent Tundra, Tundra (Hills), Snow, or Snow (Hills) without tile improvement, increasing to +1 Culture per turn per every adjacent Tundra, Tundra (Hills), Snow, or Snow (Hills) without tile improvement (with Urbanization).

• Provides +1 Gold per turn per every Lake in this city's territory.

• A city with at least 4 of these tile improvements nearby receives +2 Amenities.

Changed Civ Ability: Nobel Prize

• +1 Great Engineer points from Factories and +1 Great Scientist points from Universities. → +1 Great Engineer points from Factories and +1 Great Scientist points from Royal Academies.

In this design, Sweden received two Unique Components designed to support Open-Air Museum. First, to get the most out of this excellent tile enhancement, you should found at least one city on Snow and Tundra, albeit these terrains are often worthless. But now, Bastu provides ample Culture from these terrains, and if some Lakes are nearby, this tile improvement also provides Gold. Even though these yields are below expectation for some reason, this tile improvement also provides Amenities.

It may seem a little odd that a unit aggressive in nature was given to a cultural Leader like Kristina, but Hakkapeliitta also supports Open-Air Museum. Swedish cities must be built on various terrain types, as is already known. But if there is not enough space for a new city to be founded, you may consider taking the city by military force. Hakkapeliitta and Carolean will show their value in this situation.

Sweden practically has three Unique Buildings in this design because Royal Academy has 3 varieties, and you can freely choose which one should be built. Art Academy even accelerates Cultural Victory, while Science Academy provides a free Eureka upon construction as well as additional Science. War Academy enhances the military ability of Sweden, and this bonus will contribute to playing some defense.

Speaking of defense, Sverige is an excellent unit for coastal defense. This unit suffers a Combat Strength penalty when attacking, but in return, it receives an enormous Combat Strength bonus when defending. Since this unit doesn't require Coal, it can be produced in large quantities.

The era of great power will come to Sweden once again if you wisely use its new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization VI.

Vietnamese

New Unique Unit: Jiaozhi Arquebusier

• Replaces Musketman. Requires 5 Niter to train.

• The Capital receives +100% Production while creating this unit. Receives one free Promotion and pays no Gold maintenance cost when created or purchased in the Capital.

• Receive +3 Melee Combat Strength by the number of Promotion against the enemy unit with fewer Promotion (if this unit has 4 Promotions and the enemy unit has 1, for example, this unit receives +9 Melee Combat Strength).

New Unique Unit: Nguyễn Cannon

• Replaces Bombard. Does not suffer Bombard Combat Strength against land units when garrisoned on a tile improvement that provides a defensive bonus (such as Fort).

New Unique Building: Water Puppetry Theatre

• Replaces Amphitheater. When killing the enemy unit within this city's territory, receive 5 Great Writer points.

• Great Works of Writing stored in this building provide +2 Culture per turn.

New Unique District: Văn Miếu

• Replaces Campus. Receives 1 Adjacency Bonus from each District instead of every 2 Districts.

• If built on Woods, buildings in this District provide +3 Faith per turn. If built on a Rainforest, the Gold purchasing cost of a unit, building, District, or tile decreases by 20%. If built on Marsh, provides +50% Production while creating Settler or Builder. If none of these cases, provides +4 Loyalty per turn.

One of the most important things when playing Vietnam is researching Medieval Faires as fast as possible. And Water Puppetry Theatre will be helpful in this regard. Let your enemies enter the city's territory with this building and destroy them. Great Writer points and Great Works of Writing, in the end, will be yours, and Great Works in this building even provide additional Culture.

Văn Miếu is another interesting Unique Infrastructure for Vietnam. Based on the terrain features beneath, this District provides different bonuses. The bonus from Woods can be the weakest, but the bonus from Marsh will be helpful, especially in the early stage of the game, and the bonus from Rainforest will be substantial in the long run. Even in the conquered city, when no terrain features are beneath, this District provides Loyalty.

Vietnam received two helpful Unique Units belonging to the Renaissance Era in this design. Nguyễn Cannon is a siege unit, but what makes it special is how well it defends. When on the Fort-like tile improvement, you may think of this unit as a range unit standing between the Crossbowman and Field Cannon. Naturally, you are free to bring this unit to the siege because there is no penalty for this.

You might have some Man-At-Arms or Swordsman with some promotions if you played offensively or endured through the enemy invasion for a long time. And Jiaozhi Arquebusier can provide the military advantage if such is the case. Each promotion makes this unit more powerful, and when you produce it in the capital, it will be created quickly and with one free promotion.

Vietnam's distinct culture and spirit will not be tarnished if you wisely use its new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization VI.

Zulu

New Unique Unit: Isikhulu

• Replaces Swordsman. Unlocked by Iron Working instead of Mining. Lower Production cost (75 vs. 90). Lower Melee Combat Strength (25 vs. 35). No strategic resource requirement.

• Doesn't upgraded from Warrior (thus, Zulu Warrior directly upgrades to Man-At-Arms).

• Receives +5 Melee Combat Strength upon researching Bronze Working, Iron Working, or Construction (+15 in total). Receives +50% combat experience after developing Military Training.

New Unique Unit: Umpakati

• Replaces Pike and Shot. Higher Movement (3 vs. 2). Higher Melee Combat Strength (58 vs. 55).

• Grants +3 Combat Strength and +50% combat experience to units within 2 tiles from this unit and with lower level. This bonus can't be given to other Umpakatis and does not stack if there are more than 2 Umpakatis within 2 tiles.

New Unique Building: Isicathulo

• Replaces Arena. Grants +1 Gold per turn to Mines adjacent to a District with this building. Provides +1 Amenity per every 2 Mine adjacent to a district with this building.

New Unique Building: Iziko

• Replaces Granary. Provides more Food (2 vs. 1) per turn.

• Provides Culture equal to 25% of the unit's cost when a support or civilian unit is created in this city.

• Upon developing Mercenaries, doesn't provide Culture by creating units anymore. Instead, each Iziko already built provides a random Inspiration bonus.

• Provides +1 Production (with Mercenaries).

Changed Unique Unit: Impi

Upgrades to Pike and Shot. → Upgrades to Umpakati.

As always, the Zulus are the offensive Civilization. But they are not that exceptional before researching Mercenaries and Military Tactics. This weakness is intended to be mitigated by two Unique Components. Isikhulu replaces Swordsman but is weaker and unlocked earlier. However, in the end, with Technological and Civic development, this unit will become stronger than its counterpart. Creating some of this unit, research Technologies and Civic will make this unit strong until Impi and Corps are unlocked.

Iziko provides various bonuses, but the main point is that it provides Culture when a unit is created. In contrast to the Leader Bonus of Ambiorix or Basilikoi Paides, this bonus is given when a non-military unit is designed and only activates before researching Mercenaries. Needless to say, this aids in researching the Civic in trouble much earlier. Also, each Iziko already built provides a random Inspiration upon researching Mercenaries. With some luck, this farewell service will also help research Nationalism fast.

The Zulus now receive Umpakati as an improved form of Impi. Besides its increased stats, this unit gives bonuses to new-born units nearby. There is little reason not to use Impi actively, so it's likely that first some Umpakatis will have many promotions, making it an excellent instructor to the raw recruits.

Last but not least, Isicathulo makes the Zulu war machine run more smoothly. This building provides additional Gold that can be used for unit purchase and maintenance and Amenities to compensate for War Weariness. If there are some bonus resources that can be improved by Mine, it may be considerable not to harvest those for this building.

Warcry of the Zulus will tremble even the most brave enemies if you wisely use their new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization VI.

American ~ Byzantine

Canadian ~ French

Gallic ~ Indonesian

Japanese ~ Mongolian

Norwegian

New Unique Unit: Hulk

• Naval Melee unit of the Medieval Era. Unlocked by Medieval Faires. 200 Production cost, 800 Gold cost, 3 Gold maintenance cost, 5 Movement, 45 Melee Combat Strength, 2 Sight. Upgrades to Caravel.

• Can make 1 additional attack or move after attacking when starting its turn on or adjacent to a tile with the coastal resource or Reef and if Movement allows.

• Heals at the end of the turn even if it moves or attacks when ending its turn on or adjacent to a tile with the coastal resource or Reef (doesn't stacked with Civ Ability of Auxiliary Ships promotion).

New Unique Unit: Ski Infantry

• Replaces Infantry. Receives +10 Melee Combat Strength when fighting in Snow, Tundra, or Hills without Woods or Rainforest.

• Receives +1 Movement when starting its turn on Snow, Tundra, or Hills without Woods or Rainforest.

• No Movement penalty in Snow, Tundra, or Hills without Woods or Rainforest.

New Unique Building: Mead Hall

• Replaces Barracks. Melee or anti-cavalry units created or purchased in this city receive one free Promotion.

New Unique District: Royal Verft

• Replaces Harbor. Lighthouse is given for free upon constructing this District.

• Buildings in this District provide +2 Production while creating naval military units.

• Provides "number of developed Civic / 2"% Culture per turn to this city.

Norway received two Unique Components for land and sea. Starting with land, it now can construct Mead Hall. This building is identical to Barracks except for giving melee or anti-cavalry units one free Promotion. Although there isn't much to say about this building, it doesn't mean it is unimportant.

Similar to its predecessors in Civ 5, this Ski Infantry is a master of combat in the Snow, Tundra, and Hills. While finding Snow or Tundra could be a little tricky, Hills are relatively common.

While on the sea, Norway can now create Hulk. Properly using this unit may be tricky because it requires coastal resources or Reefs to shine. Even so, this unit's substantially higher Combat Strength than Galley or Quadrireme will be sufficient to seize control of the sea. And let's not forget that Norway can support naval melee units by its Civ Ability.

Royal Verft is a tremendous replacement for Harbor for three reasons. First, it provides a free Lighthouse. Above all, this implies that when this District is built, the Trade Route capacity will increase by one, making the Norwegian Vikings as skilled traders as they were in actual history. Second, with this District and the Civ Ability, naval melee units, including Viking Longship and Hulk, will be created in lightspeed. Lastly, during the later stage of the game, this District will provide a considerable bonus on Culture yield.

The Norwegian wind, made from steel and song, will blow from the north if you wisely use its new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization VI.

Nubian

New Unique Unit: Blemmyae Camel Archer

• Ranged Cavalry unit of the Medieval Era. Unlocked by Stirrups. 160 Production cost, 640 Gold cost, 3 Gold maintenance cost, 4 Movement, 35 Melee Combat Strength, 45 Ranged Combat Strength, 2 Range, 2 Movement. Upgrades to Field Cannon.

• Ignores enemy zone of control.

• If starts its turn adjacent to ranged units, grants +5 Ranged Combat Strength and +1 Movement to those units. This bonus isn't applied to ranged cavalry units and doesn't stacked if adjacent to more than 2 of this unit.

New Unique Unit: Medjay

• Replaces Spearman. Lower Production cost (60 vs. 65). Higher Movement (3 vs. 2).

• The zone of control exercised by this unit can not be ignored by any means.

New Unique Building: Bloomery

• Replaces Water Mill. Unlocked by Mining instead of Wheel. Lower Production cost (70 vs. 80). Provides more Food per turn (2 vs. 1).

• Doesn't grant additional Food to Farms built on bonus resources. Instead, grants +1 Production to nearby Mines built on resources.

• May be built in all cities, including those not adjacent to a River.

New Unique Tile Improvement: Hafir

• Unlocked by Irrigation. Must be built on flat Desert tile or Desert Floodplains. Cannot be adjacent to another Hafir.

• Provides +3 Food per turn.

• Provides +1 Housing (with Metal Casting).

• Farms can be built on flat Desert or Desert Hills tiles adjacent to this tile improvement (with Civil Engineering for Desert Hills).

• Grants +1 Food per turn to adjacent Farm or Plantation on Desert tile. This bonus does not stack if adjacent to more than 2 Hafirs.

Changed Civ Ability: Ta-Seti

• +30% Production toward Ranged units. Ranged units gain +50% combat experience. → +30% Production toward Ranged and Ranged Cavalry units. These units gain +50% combat experience.

In this design, Nubia received two new Unique Units that support its ranged units. Although Medjay is not a ranged unit, it is ideal for protecting Pítati Archer from enemy units' melee attacks. This unit's zone of control can not be ignored, so create some of these and place Pítati Archer between them.

While Keshik of Civ 5 has returned as Keshig, Camel Archer, a similar unit, couldn't get the chance. Now, although it's not an Arabian unit, it has returned as Blemmyae Camel Archer. It has the same stats as Keshig but with a different ability. This unit buffs adjacent ranged units, making these even stronger.

Bloomery goes well with the other side of the Civ Ability of Nubia: enhanced Mines. This building offers a Production bonus at the expense of some food. Although Nubian cities will grow a little slower than others, Mines with this Production bonus will be the pride of Nubia. In addition to being less expensive than Water Mill, this building could be constructed in any city.

Lastly, Nubia has a Starting Bias toward the Desert. This may be due to the Nubian Pyramid and now Hafir. This tile improvement provides Food and Housing, but more than that, it enables the construction of Farms on adjacent Desert tiles. With +1 Food to Desert Farms and Plantations, it might be worthwhile to construct this tile improvement and Farms instead of the Nubian Pyramid on useless Desert tiles.

The skill of archers and knowledge of the desert will be the proud legacy of Nubia if you wisely use its new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization VI.

Osman

New Unique Unit: Nizam-I Cedid

• Replaces Line Infantry. Higher Melee Combat Strength (70 vs. 65).

• City creating this unit receives +10% Production per each Religion spread in the city.

• Gold and Faith purchasing cost is decreased by 10% per each Religion spread in the city.

• Receives one free Promotion when first trained or purchased in the city where more than 3 Religions are spread.

New Unique Unit: Sipahi

• Replaces Courser. Unlocked by Feudalism instead of Castles.

• Receive a unique ability after the first battle, chosen randomly between the two listed below.

• Has a ranged attack (36 Ranged Strength, 2 Range). Can still make melee attacks.

• Receives +2 Melee Combat Strength per point of unused Movement. Heals 25 damage when kills the enemy unit.

New Unique Building: Hammam

• Replaces Armory. Unlocked by Medieval Faires instead of Military Engineering.

• Provides +1 Housing and Amenity.

• Upon obtaining a Great Person, every land military unit heals 3 damage per each Hammam owned.

New Unique Tile Improvement: Külliye

• Unlocked by Reformed Church. Must be built on or adjacent to a tile that yields Faith, or adjacent to Holy Site or Wonder. Cannot be adjacent to another Külliye.

• Provides +1 Science and Culture. This bonus doubles if more than 3 Religions are spread in the city and triples if more than 5 Religions are spread in the city.

• If constructed near the occupied city, provides Faith and Gold as the same number of Science and Culture.

• Grants +1 Appeal to adjacent tiles.

• Provides +1 Housing (with Industrialization).

Changed Leader Unit: Janissary

• Upgrades to Line Infantry. → Upgrades to Nizam-I Cedid.

• Now is a Unique Unit of the Osman Civilization, not a Leader Unit of Suleiman (Kanuni).

Changed Unique Unit: Barbary Corsair

• Now is a Leader Unit of Suleiman (Kanuni), not a Unique Unit of the Osman Civilization.

Sipahi, the backbone of the classical Osman army, made its rightful return in this design. This unit resembles Kris Swordsman of Civ 5. It will obtain a useful unique ability at random after the first combat. With this unit and Trebuchet, the Osmans can launch their attack in the Medieval Era.

The Osmans also received two Unique Components that related to Religion. Külliye provides various yields such as Science, Culture, Faith, and Gold, and even more so when various Religions are spread in the city. Thanks to this tile improvement, you can save some Production for infrastructures such as Campuses, Theater Squares, or Commercial Hubs.

Nizam-I Cedid has higher Combat Strength than Line infantry and can be created quickly and cheaply when multiple Religions are spread. This unit receives one free Promotion, especially if there are more than 3 Religions in the city. With Külliye and Nizam-I Cedid, it would be wise to tolerate various good words.

Lastly, Hammam is a final piece of the magnificent Osman war machine. On the top of Housing and Amenity, this building heals land military units upon obtaining a Great Person. Although the Osmans have no direct bonus related to the Great People, obtaining some would not be difficult if the world-conquering project goes as planned.

The Osmans will conquer the world with their might, culture, and tolerance if you wisely use their new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization VI.

Persian

New Unique Unit: Aswār

• Replaces Knight. Higher Production cost (240 vs. 220).

• Receives +3 Melee Combat Strength per each owned occupied city (up to +15).

New Unique Unit: Qizilbash

• Light Cavalry unit of the Renaissance Era. Unlocked by Reformed Church. 280 Production cost, 1120 Gold cost, 4 Gold maintenance cost, 4 Movement, 55 Melee Combat Strength, 2 Sight, Requires 10 Horses to train. Upgrades to Cavalry.

• Ignores enemy zone of control.

• Upon creating this unit by Production, get a refund of 5% of its Production cost as Faith. Upon purchasing this unit by Gold, get a refund of 20% of its Gold purchasing cost as Faith.

• Provides 4 Faith per turn when starting its turn on hostile territory. This bonus increases by 1 whenever entering the next Era.

• Provides Faith equal to 50% of the enemy unit's Combat Strength when killing it with this unit.

New Unique Building: Iwan Court

• Replaces Bank. Unlocked by Diplomatic Service instead of Banking.

• Provides more Gold per turn (7 vs. 5) and +2 Amenities.

• Grants +1 Appeal to adjacent tiles.

New Unique District: Bimaristan

• Replaces Aqueduct. Doesn't need to be built adjacent to the City Center and a source of fresh water.

• Provides +3 Housing, regardless of fresh water.

• Provides +3 Food per turn.

• Provides 2 Adjacency Bonus to every kind of Specialty Districts.

Playing aggressively with Immortal in the early stage of the game is natural for Persia. And if this early offensive were quite a success, Aswār would provide a second opportunity in the Medieval Era. Although it's a little more expensive than Knight, it receives a Combat Strength bonus per occupied city. If used well, the enemies will find it a real challenge to stop the advancing of the Sassanian army.

Qizilbash is not an outstanding military unit, but it provides a good amount of Faith in multiple ways. It provides Faith just by creating, upon killing the enemy unit. And it even provides Faith per turn just existing in the hostile territory. If you aim for a Domination Victory, purchase additional military units with this Faith. Or, if you're challenging to achieve Cultural Victory, purchase Naturalist and Rock Band instead.

Satrap's Court of Civ5 made its return under the name Iwan Court. As Satrap's Court, this building provides additional Gold and Amenities. Also, this building is unlocked a little earlier than the Bank because it requires Civic instead of Technology, and Persia enjoys high Culture per turn thanks to Pairidaeza.

Bimaristan is another blessing to Persia. It replaces the Aqueduct but can be placed anywhere. In addition to Food, it provides 2 Adjacent Bonuses to every Specialty District, not just the Industrial Zone. Construct this and encircle it with Districts you like.

Persia will always remain at the center of the world if you wisely use its new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization VI.

Phoenician

New Unique Unit: Numidian Cavalry

• Ranged Cavalry unit of the Classical Era. Unlocked by Horseback Riding. 100 Production cost, 400 Gold cost, 2 Gold maintenance cost, 5 Movement, 15 Melee Combat Strength, 40 Ranged Combat Strength, 2 Range, 2 Sight. Upgrades to Crossbowman.

• Ignores enemy zone of control.

• Can move after attacking.

New Unique Unit: Sacred Band

• Replaces Spearman. Receives +5 Melee Combat Strength in the Phoenician territory, on a land tile adjacent to the Coast, and on a land tile adjacent to the City Center. These bonuses can be stacked with each other (up to +15).

New Unique District: Tophet

• Replaces Holy Site. When built on a tile next to Natural Wonder, the tile's native yields added to this District's yield.

• Upon purchasing a Building or District by Gold in a City with this District, get a refund of 5% of the cost as Production.

• Upon purchasing a Building or District by Faith in a City with this District, get a refund of 10% of the cost as Production.

New Unique District: Winery

• Replaces Theater Square. International Trade Routes sent from this city provides +2 Gold per turn for each improved luxury resource nearby. This bonus increases to +3 Gold and +1 Culture per turn if the luxury resource improved by Plantation.

• Provides a free naval melee unit upon constructing in the coastal city or city with Cothon. This unit requires no resources to create or maintain.

Along with Greece, Phoenicia boasts 3 Unique Districts in this design. In addition to the official Cothon, it can construct Tophet. This District provides a Production refund whenever purchasing a building or District by Gold or Faith, promotes the development of the city. Also, you can freely place this District next to the Natural Wonder because the yield that Wonder provides will not be lost.

Did you know that Phoenicia has something to say about wine? Winery provides additional Gold to International Trade Routes and Culture if there are Plantations on luxury resources, including Wine. This District will make Phoenicia as rich as it was in real history.

While in the military, Phoenicia received two Unique Units in this design. Sacred Band is a unit suited for defense, making capturing a Phoenician coastal city in the early stage of the game quite challenging. But this unit can also go on an attack if your neighbors also love the coast.

Using Numidian Cavalry properly requires a lot of caution, but when you do, this unit indeed earns its salt. This unit belongs to the Classical Era but has the same Ranged Combat Strength as the Medieval Crossbowman. Also, this unit can move after attacking. But beware. This unit has Melee Combat Strength equal to the Ancient Archer. Only a single hit can be critical to this unit. Still, if you handle this unit carefully, only a few units could hold out against this unit's javelin.

Phoenicia will vanquish any formidable foe who stands in its way if you wisely use its new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization VI.

Polish

New Unique Unit: PZL. 37

• Replaces Bomber. Higher Melee Combat Strength (95 vs. 85). Higher Bombard Strength (120 vs. 110). Higher Movement (12 vs. 10). Higher Range (12 vs. 10). No strategic resource requirement.

New Unique Unit: Uhlan

• Replaces Cavalry. Higher Production cost (350 vs. 330).

• Can make 1 additional attack per turn if Movement allows. Receives +5 Melee Combat Strength for this second attack.

• Receives +5 Melee Combat Strength when attacking the enemy siege units in Polish territory. Receives +5 Melee Combat Strength when attacking the enemy cavalry units in the enemy territory.

New Unique Building: Barbican

• Replaces Renaissance Walls. Lower Production cost (250 vs. 300).

• Expands the city's borders by 3 tiles upon construction.

• Provides +1 Faith per turn per every 3 tiles the city has. Provides +1 Culture per turn per every 2 tiles the city has (up to 10/10).

• Grants +1 Range to Ranged Strikes of City Center (not applied to Encampment).

New Unique Tile Improvement: Dwór

• Unlocked by Humanism. Must be built on Grassland, Grassland (Hills), Plains, Plains (Hills), or Volcanic Soil. Cannot be adjacent to another Dwór.

• Provides +1 Food and Production per turn.

• Provides +1 Food for every two adjacent Bonus Resources, +1 Science for every two adjacent Strategic Resources, and +1 Culture for every two adjacent Luxury Resources.

• If the city's majority Religion is founded by Poland, every bonus above is doubled.

• Grants +1 Appeal to adjacent tiles.

• Provides +1 Housing, increasing to +2 Housing (with Ideology).

Poland received two new Unique Units in this design. Uhlan is more expensive than Cavalry but can attack twice, and this second attack is stronger. There will be much room for this unit to thrive when combined with a Combat Strength bonus against siege/cavalry units.

PZL. 37 kicks in the later stage of the game, but it's indeed stronger than Bomber. Except for sight and expense, it outperforms Bomber in every regard, and in a way, it's cheaper than Bomber because it doesn't require Oil. Once this unit is mass-produced, Poland will own the sky itself.

Two new Unique Infrastructures fit well with Queen Jadwiga of Poland. By Civ Ability, Poland can quickly expand its territory. And Barbican provides Faith and Culture by the number of tiles belonging to the city. Construct some Encampment and Fort to maximize this bonus quickly.

It's slightly easier to found a Religion for Poland than many Civilizations, and it's highly recommended due to the Leader Bonus of Jadwiga. Now, with Dwór, the importance of founding a Religion is even greater. This tile improvement provides various yields such as Food, Production, Science, and Culture, which are all doubled if the city follows the Religion founded by Poland.

Poland will get on a horse and ride toward victory once again if you wisely use its new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization VI.

Portuguese

New Unique Unit: Almogávar

• Ranged unit of the Medieval Era. Unlocked by Machinery. 180 Production cost, 720 Gold cost, 3 Gold maintenance cost, 2 Movement, 35 Melee Combat Strength, 40 Ranged Combat Strength, 1 Range, 2 Sight. Upgrades to Caçador.

• If ends its turn with Fortificated, deals 10 damage to every adjacent unit at the end of the turn. This bonus increases to 15 if ends its turn on a tile improvement that provides a defensive bonus (such as Fort). This bonus does not stack if the same enemy unit is adjacent to more than 2 Almogávars, and the higher value applies.

New Unique Unit: Caçador

• Replaces Field Cannon. Higher Production cost (380 vs. 330).

• Only adjacent enemy units can reveal this unit.

• Can move after attacking.

New Unique Building: Azulejo Workshop

• Replaces Workshop. Provides +1 Culture per turn for each Economic policy card in the current Government.

• Provides +1 Great Merchant point per turn.

New Unique Building: Fado House

• Replaces Ferris Wheel. Provides +3 Culture per turn and +1 Amenity if this city is connected with the Trade Route (this bonus does not increased if multiple Trade Route are connected).

Portugal is a rich Civilization. It is challenging to refute this proposition. But now, they also have a rich Culture. In addition to providing Great Merchant points, Azulejo Workshop also provides Culture per each Economic Policy card in the current Government. If you want to make the most of this bonus, choosing a government that offers many Economic policy slots and/or Wildcard policy slots would be a good choice.

With another Unique Building, Fado House, Democracy might be the best Government for Portugal. Being the only Unique Building in the Water Park in this design, this building provides additional Culture and Amenity if the city is connected with the Trade Route.

While on land, Portugal received two new Unique Units in this design. Compared to the Crossbowman, Almogávar gave up 1 Range for 5 Melee Combat Strength and a unique ability that automatically attacks the enemy. This ability becomes more powerful when this unit is on a defensive tile improvement, so it would be wise to obtain a Suzerainty to the City-State that provides such tile improvement. Or, you should wait until the Fort is unlocked.

Caçador is more expensive than Field Cannon, but it has some kind of guerrilla ability. The enemy will find it hard to find this unit beforehand, and you can attack them relatively safely. But be warned, if the enemy is smart enough, they can read this unit's location. And even though this unit can move after attacking, you can't move anywhere with only 1 Movement.

Portugal will continue to be the trade center of the world as long as Portuguese songs don't end if you wisely use their new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization VI.

Roman

New Unique Unit: Ballista

• Replaces Catapult. Does not suffer Bombard Combat Strength against land units.

New Unique Unit: Comitatenses

• Replaces Knight. Higher Melee Combat Strength (55 vs. 50).

• Receives +5 Melee Combat Strength and +1 Movement when starting its turn within 2 tiles of a Fort that is within Roman territory.

New Unique Building: Basilica

• Replaces Market. Provides +4 Loyalty per turn.

• Provides +2 Culture per turn if the city has an Amphitheater. Provides +2 Production per turn if the city has a Workshop. Provides +2 Science if the city has a Library.

New Unique Building: Triumphal Arch

• Replaces Monument. Provides +3 Culture per turn regardless of the city's Loyalty.

• Provides 1 Great General Points per turn (round down decimal).

Changed Leader Bonus: Trajan's Column

• All founded cities start with a free building in the City Center (a Monument if the game is started in the Ancient Era). → All founded cities start with a free building in the City Center (a Triumphal Arch if the game is started in the Ancient Era).

Ballista, a forever friend of Legion in Civ 5, has returned in this design. Although it's not cheap and can't attack after moving, this unit can be used as an upgraded Archer. So, as it did before, this unit can be used effectively in the early offensive when used as a pair with Legion.

Triumphal Arch also encourages the early offensive. Not only does it provide more Culture than a Monument, but this building also provides Great General points. Rome will recruit the first Great General unless someone else founded their capital adjacent to the Zhangye Danxia.

After the early conquering, you may want to play defense and aim for victory other than Domination Victory. If so, you can find Comitatenses ready. It's stronger than Knight, even more so when it started its turn near the Fort in Roman territory. Roman Fort is considered a Fort for this since Roman Fort... is a Fort.

Thanks to the Bath, Roman cities can grow smoothly, leading to the construction of many Districts per city. Basilica fits well with this advantage. It's no better than Market alone but provides bonus yields from other buildings in the same city. Since Rome will have many cities, this bonus will grow significant enough to claim various types of victory.

The glory of the eternal city will be forever if you wisely use its new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization VI.

Russian

New Unique Unit: Katyusha Rocket

• Replaces Machine Gun. Unlocked by Robotics instead of Advanced Ballistics. Higher Production cost (600 vs. 540). Higher Movement (3 vs. 2). Higher Ranged Combat Strength (95 vs. 85). Requires 1 Oil to train and 1 Oil per turn to maintain.

• Cannot attack after moving unless its maximum Movement is 4 or more.

• Deals 10 damage to every enemy unit adjacent to the unit that had been attacked by this unit and within range of this unit.

• Receives bonuses from Observation Balloon or Drone as if siege-class unit.

New Unique Unit: Streltsy

• Replaces Musketman. Receives +7 Combat Strength when defending on Tundra, Tundra (Hills), Snow, and Snow (Hills), and recovers an additional 10 HP when healing on these tiles.

New Unique Building: Ostrog

• Replaces Armory. Lower Production cost (180 vs. 195).

• Upon construction, secures every Tundra and Snow tile adjacent to other Tundra or Snow tiles or Russian territory and within 3 tiles from this City Center.

New Unique District: Pogost

• Replaces Commercial Hub. May be purchased with Faith.

• Decreases Gold and Faith purchasing costs of District or building by 5%. Buildings placed in this District also provide this bonus (20% in total).

Russia received two new Unique Components that help it prosper in the cold area. Ostrog is cheaper than Armory and secures many Tundra and Snow tiles upon being built. Although this might be helpful, this building is nothing but a cheaper Armory if there isn't any ice nearby.

Streltsy fits well with ice. This unit receives a defensive bonus in Tundra or Snow and heals more damage. If you succeeded in securing many cities in polar regions, this unit will guarantee safety throughout the Renaissance Era.

Russia can accumulate an enormous amount of Faith, and thanks to the Pogost, it can now even save some of it. With this District, purchasing costs of District or building decrease, and even more so with buildings within. This bonus also applies to Gold cost, but don't forget to set up any means that allow purchasing with Faith.

At the final stage of the game, Katyusha Rocket guarantees the upper hand on the battlefield. It's a hybrid of ranged and siege units like the Korean Hwacha, but what sets it apart is that this unit deals splash damage. The drawback of this unit, however, is that it requires Oil. Furthermore, this is the only Unique Unit unlocked in the Information Era. This is a mighty unit, but there might not be enough room for it.

Russian Empire, the largest empire on earth, will show off its greatness if you wisely use its new Unique Components in Sid Meier's Civilization
