Civilization VI

Huh. What did she do besides marry some Lithuanian thus creating one of the largest nations in...oh I get it.

She also restored the Krakow University (by selling her own jewelry) and was generally a very colourful individual (her love for the Habsburg prince who was her original bethrothed was a stuff of legend, yet she ended up marrying Jagiello for political reasons).

With characters like Cleopatra, Catherine de Medici and Jadwiga, they are clearly going for personalities over (military) accomplishments, which is fine with me, to be honest.

Does this mean that Fred Rogers, who had a lovely personality, is leader of the US?

I have no problem with it I was just being silly.

Yeah I got it. I was just commenting in general.

How un-Polish to sell her jewry.

Better yet, Bob Ross the Undead.  He can increase lumber production by creating lots of "happy little trees"

Barbarossa leads the German civ. The plate armour is a bit off but otherwise a cool civ. Germany gets:

- bonus to attack city state units (useful especially when your enemy "conscripts" the armies of their CS ally to use against you)
- an extra slot for military policy in any government (useful both for building an uber-militaristic government but also to keeping some military capability in a pacifist/economy-oriented government)
- special district called Hansa which replaces Industrial district and grants extra production for adjecency
- an u-Boot (sp?) military unit
- ability to build an extra district per city (as determined by the populace)

Haha Firaxis accidentally revealed most leaders by opening Civpedia during a live stream. :ouch:



Seems there are two leaders for Greece - Pericles and Gorgo. Interesting.

Doesn't look Greek.

Nah, they are talking about Cersei Lannister 

[Martinus]

I like that they have an Italian in charge of France, a German in charge of England, a Greek in charge of Egypt and a Spaniard in charge of Rome.

Edit: Also a Kurd leading Arabs.

What's the deal with the armor? Will Peter wear kevlar?

[garbon]

Hopefully spanx.

Philip II the Flamboyantly Fabulous leader of Spain. I like him already



Special bonuses:

- Can form "fleets" (3 units of the same type in Civ 6 can be combined into one stronger unit - called either a corps or a fleet, depending if it is a land or naval unit - upon discovery of certain techs - such combined unit is stronger than 1 unit but weaker than 3) earlier;
- Intercontinental trade routes bring more gold
- Gets bonus to melee fights with heathen civilizations
- Inquisitors get one extra "charge"
- Special unit called conquistador - converts an enemy city upon conquest, provided there is a missionary or an inquisitor in the vicinity
- Special land improvement called mission - provides extra faith when built on foreign continents (than your capital), gives extra science when adjacent to a campus (the science district)

Pretty cool.

Scythians first look video. Seems they are the new Mongols/Huns.

Btw, here is a leaked poster with what are likely the different civs and leaders: http://well-of-souls.com/civ/images/civ6_portrait_bingo1.jpg

Doesn't require horse resources?

I guess the idea is that Scythians carry horses with them wherever they go.
