I'm a bit confused by some of the pantheon beliefs. It tells me that I get +1 faith for every mine built on bonus resources. I have two but am not getting any faith from them. Why would that be? I had the same with the + production fishing boat one. In a similar vein I have papal primacy but if I select a place I've converted it doesn't seem to show that I've got more resources from it.

Pretty sure you're getting it- check your city yields when you move citizens around to be sureon that- it's just that it seems some income sources don't show up when you're looking at tile yield dots. It's dumb, but I can see why the yields from individual tiles are there while overarching policy bonuses are not.

(You don't need to pick any option that comes from right-clicking Civ6 in the taskbar.) Don't know why but sometimes games in fullscreen windowed get stuck. That fixes it for me.

And can you not tell how many people follow a religion in your city? Religious citizens is all I see but that isn't specific enough. It's there when I have a missionary but that seems to be it! My holy city for my religion is now following another religion and the missionaries I build are spreading that other one now, that is loving annoying since it doesn't tell you what religion the missionary is when you build it.

I'm starting to get really annoyed that barbs keep leaving their camps unguarded. Sometimes it works in your favor but I just started a game as Gilgamesh and I've lost 2 camps in a row because the defender left and a city state sniped it.

Is there a quick reference to which great people correspond to which buildings? I'm sitting here with 3 artists, 1 musician, and 1 writer and I have no idea which buildings they can use, which cities have them already, and if I've even discovered them yet. I know if I have a slot then it'll turn white when I click the person, but I at least want an out of game quick reference.

It just takes absolutely loads. And you need a holy site to actually put them in which I didn't realise, wasted a ton of turns there. Talking of getting beaten to stuff, no points for losing a wonder to another civ hurts a shitload.

SniperWoreConverse posted:I just wanted to post that I got a relic in my Aztec game: the grass cutting sword, made by a "martyred apostle." This religion must be the most badass. Relics combined with the triple relic bonus belief are pretty great, I constantly go around asking other civs if they've got any relics to sell, I'm like some kind of imperial magpie. Kinda tempted to combine it with England for maximum hoarding.

Jastiger posted:In my experience it was based on trying to snag an important luxury or strategic resource that was in the middle of no where. So the desirability was low, but the resources were there. Er... I feel like you're still misunderstanding something fundamentally. Basic rule of thumb: Appeal is 100% irrelevant and you should always ignore it. It does nothing for you. There are some tiny exceptions to that, but clearly listing those has simply made you more confused. Act like that stat doesn't exist and you'll be more than fine. The only reason to even slightly pay attention to it is in the end-game when you're going for a Tourist victory: it has no other effect.

While I am enjoying the game I feel like some stuff is way under-explained. The civlopedia isn't as good either, in the past every single ability had its own article.

Always keep some inquisitors handy for a rainy day. I don't know how it works exactly, but they do at least exist for pressure because Jerusalem's city-state power is to immediately convert to your religion and exert pressure as if it was a second Holy City.
