Digital deluxe disappointment

Posted: 21 Dec 2016 06:58 AM PST

I brought the digital deluxe edition expecting to save money on the next 4 dlc, and get more civs, and new leders for existing civs. Now there have been released 2 new dlc and in total they added ONE new civ and leader. In total they cost 9.98€ so I haven't even saved anything. Why didn't the viking dlc contain either Denmark or Sweeden, or both?

Details on the 3 new Natural Wonders in the Vikings Scenario Pack

Posted: 21 Dec 2016 07:48 AM PST

Since there were surprisingly no details on what these natural wonders do in the patch notes, I spent some time looking for them in-game to find out.
  • Lysefjord - Naval combat units that enter adjacent plots are granted their next promotion.
  • Eyjafjallajökull - Adjacent land plots yield +1 Culture and +2 Food.
  • Giant's Causeway - Land combat units that enter adjacent plots receive the ability 'Spear of Fionn' (+5 combat strength).
Thoughts:
Lysefjord seems pretty bad if only because of how weak naval combat is right now. Could be really good though if naval combat becomes relevant in the future.
Eyja is basically if Piopiotahi and Mt. Kilimanjaro had a baby with no money. Super strong, probably the best additional yield natural wonder in the game right now outside maybe Torres del Paine. You get +6 yields from the 2 middle tiles, and +3 yields from the other 6. This pretty much makes a tundra city super viable on its own.
Giant's Causeway seems like the best of the three at this state of the game, at least IMO. +5 combat strength on all your land units for free with no attacking restrictions to boot (like in most class promotions) is pretty damn good. 40 combat strength War Carts seems like some kind of nightmare I don't even want to think about.

Literally the best starting tile in the game?

it's good to see all shapes of Mine are being equally represented.

What units are those in red uniforms? Jannisarys?

TIL Your City Defense strength depends on the highest base combat strength among your units

Posted: 21 Dec 2016 05:49 AM PST

So i was playing a Culture game with Kongo (managed to get Orcale in my Cap) when i noticed that, despite being in Atomic Era my highest City defense strength was only at 23. Then after i build a Tank Army it instantly rose to 97 in all Cities.

Thoughts on Viking DLC?

Posted: 21 Dec 2016 08:20 AM PST

There's a few good threads on the Polish civ DLC, but this DLC is (justifiably) getting very little buzz. The scenario pack still added six city-states and three natural wonders to the base game, which mostly look like fun picks. What are people's thoughts on them?

What are the patch notes for the new ~800 mb civ6 patch?

Posted: 20 Dec 2016 04:18 PM PST

EDIT: Thanks to Reddit Detectives
It seems to add the new dlcs:
Civilization VI - Poland Civilization & Scenario Pack
Civilization VI - Vikings Scenario Pack
I can confirm because I now seem to own the dlc due to my 25th anniversary edition. It seems pretty strange that they would release dlc without even bothering to announce it ahead of time.

My Initial Thoughts On The Winter Patch and Poland (Pano1g)

Posted: 21 Dec 2016 01:35 AM PST

Hey guys it's Pano1g here. Some of you may know me from my Deity tier lists at https://www.reddit.com/r/civ/comments/5dr8s1/pano1gs_civ_6_deity_tier_list_post_fall_2016/
Today we got a new patch here as well as the Poland Civ coming in as DLC and I've been testing stuff out all day as soon as the patch dropped so I can update my tier list for the Winter Patch. I just wanted to check in with you all to share my initial thoughts on the changes and on the new civ Poland.
The biggest change here is obviously the nerf to aoe buildings such as Factories and Zoos. This is particularly significant because previously the meta was centered around going wide and fitting as many cities as possible into your land and then taking advantage of the production provided by factories to outproduce the AI. With this change this is no longer the case; it seems that now there is a good balance between wide and tall strategies since spamming factories is no longer efficient. This also means that the AI has become more competitive since strategic placement of industrial zones is no longer exploitable. I will note however after testing that cities can get the aoe bonus production from one factory that belongs to a different city IN ADDITION to the production from their own factory. This means that Germany is not as nerfed as many players had initially thought; however it is now impossible for each city to get bonus production from 5-6 different factories and as such spamming many crappy cities is no longer efficient. As a result of this change, faith purchasing strats are much stronger than before since they can convert faith into production for military in the midgame in a way that's more efficient than spamming factories is. Civs that can reliably get a religion versus the Deity AI are definitely going to be seeing a jump in power.
The second biggest change is the requiring population from Unique Districts. Previously this was a highly exploitable mechanic which caused large power boosts for civs that had access to unique districts (I'm looking at you Germany and Greece). I'm actually very happy about this change since it significantly balances the powergap between all civs and allows some unique buildings to actually become useful.
In terms of AI competitiveness. I have already noted through testing that the AI expands more aggressively now and settles many more cities than before if allowed to. This is very good since in previous patches the AI would sit at 4-6 cities for the entire game even if they had a whole continent to themselves. I've also noted that the AI prioritizes religion less now which is a good thing since previously the AI would prioritize faith and religious victories even if it was to its own detriment. Some Civs do still prioritize religions but it's the ones that benefit most from it (as it should be).
As for my thoughts on Poland......This is a strong civ; possibly even number 1. The ability to steal land without going to war and to convert enemy cities through culture bombing allows them to make use of the Crusader Belief better than any other civ and this is a strat that I expect will see a lot of use even in multiplayer. I will note however that at present, "culture bombing" doesn't seem to be able to steal tiles that have completed districts and wonders on them (this may be a bug but at present this definitely seems to be the case); this significantly lowers its strategic use but as I mentioned before the synergy with the Crusader belief alone makes it a powerful and consistent bonus. With the nerfs to factories, internal trade routes are going to be more important than ever and with their unique building Poland is going to have a very strong economy. The relic bonus is unreliable but if you happen to get some relics early it can really allow you to snowball your games just like it does for Kongo. The wildcard policy slot is also very strong for every victory type and actually makes rushing a religion viable for Poland vs the deity AI (which as I mentioned before is going to be a very strong strategy this patch). Winged Hussars are a very strong Unique Unit which come into the game relatively early and stay relevant for a VERY large portion of the game; Domination victories are going to be very easy with Poland. They do take a hit in utility due to the fact that you can't upgrade into them; however they upgrade into tanks which are arguably the best lategame unit and they also benefit from being obtainable at Mercenaries (which allows you to build a strong military unit while focusing on the top part of the tech tree). This unit will even be strong in multiplayer so I expect FilthyRobot will be placing Poland at the top of his Multiplayer Tier list as well. Poland is just a really great Civ that perfectly fits in with this patches' meta.
All in all I'm happy with this patch. I do think Poland is quite OP (as in leagues above most other Civs in both single player deity and multiplayer) but the balance changes have made wide and tall strats equally viable and have brought most other civs in line with eachother in terms of strength. The Deity AI is also becoming more and more challenging which is something I'm very happy about; it still sucks at battle tactics and unit placement but at least it's becoming harder and harder to outpace the Deity AI's bonuses without going to war. I'd love to hear what you guys think of the new patch. Please remember to upvote if you enjoyed this post and keep a lookout for my updated tier list in the next few days! Cheers guys!

The best thing about Civ VI Poland is...

Posted: 21 Dec 2016 02:54 AM PST

... that we FINALLY have the white-crimson color scheme. Now please, mods, change the Polish flair, I'm tired of being one-headed Albania.
Also, land steal OP, but I'll gladly annex our rightful clay (which means ALL the clay).

Guy from Poland asking about the rationality of chosing Jadwiga for the ruler of Poland.

Posted: 21 Dec 2016 08:53 AM PST

So, I played (but didn't own) civ iv, and own civ v with both dlcs. I didn't buy civ vi, as I didn't see a huge leap forward in newer instalment. And I'm rather disappointed by first dlc civ in civ vi, not wanting to buy Civ VI just to play my country.
Poland was in Civ V, and now it is in Civ VI, led by Jadwiga.
Now, I do not understand why were the game creators so desperate for a female leader for Poland to choose Jadwiga. Maybe because they have a female bias? Whatever, if the choice makes sense it is ok. But it doesn't. Jadwiga barely did anything and is not representative of Poland in any way.
The greatest thing about her, was that she was a woman and could be married to (this wasn't her initiative, she was already engaged before becoming a KING of Poland, in those times an actual queen was something unthinkable) Lithuanian great duke Jogaila, thus enabling the formation of union between countries. Her reign was rather dominated by her husband after her marriage, who is a much more representative leader of Poland, despite coming from Lithuania.
Why do the creators feel the desperate need to put female leaders, despite there being so few of them in the male-dominated past.
I don't want to offend anyone, but sadly this is a historical truth, there were (and are) few fenale leaders of nations, and some of them were great and well known (Catherine the Great of Russia, Elizabeth the First), but not all of them, same with male leaders, some were great, some were not.
And there's no point adding obscure leaders, just for the sake of their gender.
Also Władysław the Third of Poland was supposedly gay, will we see him in Civ VII? For the sake of some weird correctness?
Although he admittedly died in Crusade of Varna, gaining some more fame.
Please don't feel offended, but I'm just asking for the somewhat accurate or at least sensible and unbiased description of historical events. Which sadly were male-dominated.
