Grassland (Hills) is a base terrain in Civilization VI which is a variant of Grassland tiles. Like other Grassland tiles, they are usually found in moderate climates, roughly halfway between the equator and the poles of the map.

Grassland Hills provide 1 Production Production in addition to the 2 Food Food produced by basic Grassland tiles. Grassland Hills may be improved with Mines, which makes them considerably more productive than other Grassland tiles. All Hills have a +3 Strength Combat Strength modifier, which can strengthen city defenses, as well as protect vulnerable units.

Strategy[]

Grassland Hills are among the most valuable tiles in the game. While Plains Hills or tiles with luxury resources are more worthwhile places to settle, Mines, Quarries, or Lumber Mills on Grassland Hills provide a lot of Production Production, especially after researching techs that increase the yields of said improvements. Improved Grassland Hills will provide enough Food Food to grow your city but will also boost your Production Production by a considerable amount.

Civilopedia entry[]

One way to protect all those riches was to put troops on top of hills when attacked, for (until bullets and bombs were invented) holding the high ground was a pretty good strategy. Thus, in time, hills were dotted by civilization's forts and castles, with fine views over the surrounding countryside.
