'''Specialists''' are citizens of your cities which, instead of trudging in the fields and mines around the cities, dedicate themselves to more refined work in your special buildings' specialist slots. Despite the fact that in this way less land is being taken advantage of, Specialists are '''very''' important for your civilization, because they are the main source of {{GreatPeople5}} Great People Points (GPPs) and are thus central to your [[Great People (Civ5)|Great People]] generation! For more info on that, visit [[Great People (Civ5)#How to Earn Great People|this]] article.

Specialists are divided into several types, depending on the building they're assigned to. Besides certain types of GPPs, each type will also produce some stat - {{Production5}} Production, {{Gold5}} Gold, {{Culture5}} Culture or {{Science5}} Science. The stat they produce is added to the base production of the city, and is thus subject to enhancement bonuses. Keep in mind that Specialists also cause a small amount of {{Unhappiness5}} Unhappiness that should be countered.

Specialists are crucial for your [[Great People (Civ5)|Great Person]] generation, being the most important contributor to that end. If you want a certain Great Person generated, assign Specialists of the relevant type in your cities. But aside from that, Specialists produce valuable stats which aren't usually available in the land (especially {{Culture5}} Culture and {{Science5}} Science). Use them to enhance these sides of your empire's stat generation, particularly in cities that contain bonus buildings for the relevant stat.

BackArrowGreen Back to game concepts

Engineer (Civ5) Specialists are Citizen Citizens of your cities which, instead of trudging in the fields and mines around the cities, dedicate themselves to more refined work in your special buildings' specialist slots. Despite the fact that in this way less land is being taken advantage of, Specialist Specialists are very important for your civilization, because they are the main source of GreatPeople5 Great People Points (GPPs) and are thus central to your Great People generation! For more info on that, visit this article.

Specialist Specialists are divided into several types, depending on the building they're assigned to. Besides certain types of GPPs, each type will also produce a yield - Production Production, Gold Gold, Culture Culture or Science Science. The yield they produce is added to the base production of the city, and is thus subject to enhancement bonuses.

Specialist Specialists are crucial for your Great Person generation, being the most important contributor to that end. If you want a certain Great Person generated, assign Specialist Specialists of the corresponding type in your cities. But aside from that, Specialist Specialists produce valuable yields which aren't usually available from tiles (especially Culture Culture and Science Science). Use them to enhance these sides of your empire's yield, particularly in cities that contain bonus buildings for the relevant yield type.

Despite that Unhappiness (Civ5) Unhappiness from Specialist Specialists is shown separate to Unhappiness (Civ5) Unhappiness from the rest of the 20xPopulation5 Population, Specialist Specialists produce no more Unhappiness (Civ5) Unhappiness than any other 20xPopulation5 Citizens, and can even produce less with the right enhancers.

Artists, Musicians and Writers (Brave New World)

In the Brave New World expansion pack, the Artist (Civ5) Artist has been split into three new kinds of Specialist Specialist: Writer, Artist and Musician (see below). All of the cultural buildings providing slots for Vanilla/Gods and Kings Artists have been altered - they now provide 20xGreatWork5 Great Work slots instead. Similarly, all Wonders that used to provide Great Artist points have now been altered to provide Great Work slots of the three types.

Only the three Guilds now provide slots for Specialist Specialists, as well as GPPs towards the specific Great Person:
