In this game of Civ 6, we’ll be playing as Fredrick’s Germany, and I’ll be showing off one of the most broken strategy combinations in Civ 6 right now.
Since the much heralded arrival of Ludwig, Frederick has largely been forgotten as the original leader of Germany in Civ 6. It could even be said that Frederick was largely ignored even before Ludwig arrived - after all, Germany’s bonuses are better than his, right? Right??
In this game, I’ll be showing you just why this strategy with Frederick can be considered to be so overpowered. Some would even say… BROKEN. Overlook him at your peril!

40k and another sponsored video, well done! It's nice to see these series leaning heavily into the Civs theme, especially the older ones that have been somewhat outclassed by newer Civs. I think Initiation Rites is just too weak to ever take seriously though. This whole game it will have earned Ursa one risk free barb camp clearance. If it worked on barbs, city states and free cities I'd be all for it but just about anything else would have been a better choice. (This is a problem with Civ6 Pantheon balance rather than Ursa game play BTW - I appreciate wanting to mix things up, not taking optimal choices every game etc)

That isn’t reassuring
To quote Voltaire “The Holy Roman Empire was not Holy, not Roman and not an Empire”. Now Frederick The Great and Prussia that is another matter. Most country have an army but Prussia was an army with a country
I don't think I've ever seen that pantheon being picked. Didn't even know about the extra healing part. But that's why I'm here, to see some cool and unique stategies.

Was it a good choice? No. Was it efficient or optimum? No. But did it make us feel? Oh yeah
At the start where you where saying "we're holy, we're roman and we're emperor, except we're not roman, we're german" comes quite close to a thing my history teacher said "the holy roman empire, which was neither holy, nor roman, nor an empire"

"I DON'T want barbarians to run thru me." WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT DID YOU DO TO THE REAL URSA!??!!?!?!? But but but its a Ursa hallmark to have his warrior halfway across the world, then have a bunch of barbs just rock up saying "Mighty nice city you got there, be a shame if someone BROKE IT!!"

@UrsaRyan There is a certain AI mod that may just transport you to a (Holy) Roman Holiday (particularly around the atomic era)
Your people (and the leader you roleplay as) know of the horses, but it is not until the discovery of animal husbandry that anyone realises their significance as a strategic resource (how this translates to a campus doubling as a horse farm because horses lived there before the campus was built, is its own story).

what UI mods are you all using?
my pc broke so had to get a cheap chromebook, so signed up to xcloud gaming to play civ 6. prob is its the base game atm as have to pay wedge for update bundle (apart from being console version) so no golden ages or governor bonuses. the doubling of culture from pingala would literally take me 30 odd turns to build 3 theatre squares + amphitheatres and lose production on other stuff. how did anyone win on deity on base game? nuts

6:57 I have to disagree with you on that one my bear. I think Mt. Vesuius is one the best starting wonders this game can possibly give you. It might blow 3 or 4 times in the first 100 turns and you want that to happen!! Id say losing a few pops here and there is a minuscule price to pay for having a bunch of 5 5 volcanic soil tiles in the first 100 turns.
@UrsaRyan
11 ай бұрын
the issue is that I want to district a wonder rather than work the tiles - I don't mind the odd eruption but Vesuvius does MASSIVE pop damage - I've seen it wipe half a cities pop in one go on several occasions. Not good for a pingala capital!
@luigi180
11 ай бұрын
@@UrsaRyan It certainly is a destructive wonder to your pops if you aren't working the food tiles off it, that's for sure. I suppose you put a higher priority on getting more districts over raw yields like I do.

@Userd3258

@@UrsaRyan it's not guaranteed, depending on map size. And sometimes it just takes too long to find a second continent since many civ players like to rush early empire for open borders gold and the first governor. I'd argue it's easier(/more guaranteed) to find 3 city states and boost political philosophy, same with founding a pantheon for the other civic that I can't recall the name of right now. Also, you have more time to boost those civics since they appear further into the civic tree. So imo those inspirations are worse in at least 95% of cases.
