Counterintuitive advice: declare war on the enemy while your troops are not too close to their cities. They will send their units to *your* capital which means you're unlikely to have to worry about as many archers or garrison units. Trivial reminders: unpromoted archers don't help with putting a city "under siege" (preventing healing) as they don't exert area of control (all non-mountain tiles around the city must be under your area of control for the siege to take place). Also, counterintuitively, conquering bigger cities first makes it easier to manage loyalty (the citizens in the conquered town immediately project loyalty pressure for you). Last cheesy advice: leave the enemy with a single pop city at the edge of your large conquered cities. They should rebel, which means none of the other countries will blame you for killing them.

I agree it's good to remember this. It doesn't even need to cut into your production schedule heavily, just build the walls anytime before researching conservation, it's very easy for most or all of your cities to get ancient and medieval walls in only a couple of turns by waiting to start the projects. High production cities or one near an aggressive enemy can get renaissance walls. It adds up to a lot of tourism.

Nice video, but the old "scouts only have one more movement point than other units" is a hackneyed trope. It doesn't take long for a scout to level up, letting you select it to ignore hills or jungle/forest, and they speed up like *that*. Sometimes, you can get them to level up a second time (or find the matterhorn) and make it so that you ignore all terrain.

There may be a few other bigger civ channels but I always come back here for your jokes 💯 pure gold. And good tips !

A mid/end game guide would be great

Been playin civ since like 2015 but i still watch your vids like this even though i don’t need the advice fully. Love your content brother

I just came here to say, after entering the series at Civ V and spending 1,000 hours on Civ VI, THIS VIDEO helped me achieve my FIRST DIETY WIN!!! I have watched a few tips and tricks videos, read a few guides and never crushed this game like a god. Specifically, your tips on city placement, planning, and an ABUNDANCE of early settling was key for me to finally spank these angry leaders. I was close to 10 cities by turn 100. Settled 7 myself and picked up closest rival capital and another city. Then the snowballing began in my favor. I was able to secure a science victory with Seondeok nearly 40 turns before my nearest rival. Sure, it took me ages to catch up with science, but I eventually caught up after the Mars Launch. By that point, I had easily become the dominant military for half of existence and could have gone domination 50 turns earlier. 18/20 diplo points without even attempting that. Could have even pushed culture win as the AI gave up on really any victory condition and would willingly sell to my ridiculous treasury. I tend not to mess with religion, but am looking forward to working that in to my next playthrough! Thanks for your videos and your unique style commentary. You gave me faith I never knew I had. May even attempt to play against Gandhi now...Cheers!

Just played my first game. Had no idea what I was doing. Went for a science victory, Greece was beating me so I conquered Greece and by that point I was so far ahead that tanks and bombers wiped out everyone else within 100 turns

I actually prefer horsemen over swordsmen for early rushes. I can use archers to get trough walls, they usually end up doing about 20-30 dmg to archers per shot, which is very little so you can get trough walls in a good 5 turns, which isnt exactly fast, but if you are fast you should face 1 walled city at most. And horsemen rushes have massive advantages over swordsmen: 1: more movement allows for you to hit earlier and pillage better 2: you get archers early, so you can declare war and then have the horsemen come in later, thus hitting them way before you could get a swordsmen rush going 3: easier and more guaranteed eureka path 4: if you dont get horses, you can go with something else, but by the time you get bronze working but dont have iron its kind of to late to stop, so you have to settle some stupid city for iron, which can cripple you. Or if you just dont have someone else nearby you can pull out and sim earlier. 5: coursers are better than men at arms since they arent in the ass side of the tech tree and are stronger, and very close to trebuchets to keep the war going if you want to 6: you can sell some horses you get since you get them early enough to then have them stack, and the extra gold is nice

Make a mid and late game! Also was hoping to see your siege on Arabia strategy in real time in this video, but a guide on siege would be awesome to. Great vid. I started playing civ for the first time ever like 4 days ago and just completed my first game. Won with science and could’ve won with culture. Had it on emperor difficulty so I felt good about that after just starting with my first civ game ever a few days ago. On to diety!

The Pokemon example you tried to give is best said as such: it's like if Ash was given a Magikarp and told to fight the first gym leader who has an Arceus.

Interesting, I actually rushed archers and spammed them out in my most recent game and it worked super well for early domination. I’ll have to try swordsmen next time…

I have over 1000 hours in this game and I learned so much from the first 5 minutes of this video…

Great humor in the vid man, kept me engaged the whole time

I started with CivRev and learned my way up to level 6 on Civ 6 (like 1 level higher than king, 2 away from diety) such a blast but I'm sure there are things I'm prioritizing wrong still. Like I don't *always* know where I want my next city to be exact tile and rely on advisors probably making a less intelligent decision than if I knew what I was doing

Your commentary is grade A my guy. Keep shining ☀️

I subscribed you’re so funny!!! And informational about the game!!!

I always rush 4 slingers and then change them to archers asap and siege enemy cities with them. While rushing on diety i always rush all my neighbors and aquire 8 to 9 cities and some setters by turn 100 on marathon.

Okay, one thing i gotta say, is that your jokes are on point 😂

I always start out going for a science victory then usually switch to domination and drop nukes on everyone in the 1700s when they have no chance to defend against my air force and navy.

this is the first video of yours ive ever seen and i was dieing from laughter for the for the first 5 minutes

I'm a tad bit confused If I want a culture victory should I make holy sites and theater squares first or campus/harbor then holy sites and theater squares

The only thing I have found spear and pikemen too good be good for has been taking out barbarians who already have horsemen or enemy cities that already have horsemen. I only ever build one scout and once he dies I never build another one but I always do it early game just to start opening up the mat more because once they level up they can move a lot faster across certain terrain

what i like to do is just build a settler and no other unit or build a scout first. I just reload if it get captured and try to get a relic fast.

If you play deity alot and are tried of wasting time trying to get a decent start theres a mod that lets the starting settler move much farther I definitely recommend this since it really only save you time

Do you play much multiplayer? Would love a good multiplayer tips vid, love the videos bro 👍

If you win an early game war, then you're almost guaranteed to win but if you don't want to do that I think scouts are good because you can make up for your small empire with city states. The AI get huge bonuses but I find they don't actually use them to take all the tribal villages.

You so funny , subbed!

Variation of the thumbnail: "This is how you're righting you're wrong: your".

I think you are wrong about scouts. With one promotion scouts can also move though hills of forest tiles without penalty which speeds up quite a lot in a lot of cases. My build order is usually scout, slinger, settler, monument or scout, slinger, monument, settler. If I have an aggressive civ ner close I would maybe go for another slinger.

The problem is trying to get promotions with scouts, you lose a scout, that means you wasted time making one and if you keep two scouts together to battle in order to get one upgraded without one dying that renders the extra moves pointless because you essentially wasted one of your scouts movements to keep the other safe... In any high difficulty game, the barbarian scouts are going to demolish your scouts one on one and you never want to move your one and only warrior troop that far from your first base until you get established, essentially rendering scouts useless unless you are lucky.

I agree that Scouts can be extremely valuable but it takes an experienced player to maximize their value by obtaining the +20 ambush promotion. I especially had fun with the Inca warak’aqs (2attacks/turn 40 ranged strength) and becoming Kabul’s Suzerain which gave me double XP. I had so many units with the +20 ambush promotion they were unstoppable… and cheap with no resource requirement! In general practice I’ll build at least a few scouts depending upon how much territory I’ll need to discover, and will build more if they can become worthy military units like the warak’aq or the Scottish Highlander. If I become invested in many recon units I’ll even plug in the Survey policy card and gain double XP.

Invade one or two civilivations in the first 100 turns. Although this will sacrifice your Diplomatic Victory, you can have the option of winning in other ways. Because you have much more land and cities and resources.

I recently lost a surprise culture defeat while going science because I spawned ridiculously far from anything else, literally like 1/4 of the map was mine and my science was crazy high for where it was in the game. I was already researching rocketry in the industrial era. Then I got the notification that the Mayans had just become dominant over me and only needed one more civ to win...in 8 turns. My army could have destroyed them but as I was bottom left of the map and Maya was top right I couldn't get there in 8 turns. That's what I get for focusing on the science speed run when apparently no one else went for any culture on deity.

I took Religious Settlements when, meanwhile, 90% of the rest of the landmass I was on was Marshes. I was also fighting for my life against Horse Barbarians, so that didn't help... Lady of the Reeds and Marshes is an insane pantheon if you get a lot of Marshes (I had, like, 15 there). You can't improve them, but you also don't need to either, not with a 3 food and 2 production tile on turn 10. If you get Etamanaki, the game is basically over, with you rolling 3 food, 3 production, and 2 science tiles in the Ancient Era.

I think scouts are grate because they get faster over time and I typically use them to circumvent the global. You will also need the extra speed to get vilages fast before the ai does. I sometimes even clear barb camps with them and I sometimes even go for 2 scouts! They are quite useless in mid and late game but my mindset when playing civ is how can I snowball as fast as possible? Encampments and villages are busted and early scouting overall is game defining. Why wouldn't I use the best scouting unit and use them to scare off barbarian scouts that report my city location?

How do I enable the secret society governors?
