Buy Civ VI in a year when the Frontier Pass expansions are all out and there's a GOTY edition. Edit: if we're all still alive by then.

I really like both Civ 5 & 6 I think 5 actually did some things better (separate culture trees and ideologies; a world congress that actually makes sense; better interface on some parts, with more information to the player), but I love the district system so much I cant go back anymore

Crazy Ted posted:At least the Cthulhu thing isn't explicitly marked like the cultists scream "“Iä! Iä! Cthulhu fhtagn!” or something like that. These Vampires are not only straight-up vampire units, but they apparently cannot die and when they're defeated in combat they retreat to their related tile improvement, the Vampiric Castle. Vampires are totally in there because the designer thinks they're cool, and it will get people talking. And look... it works!

loving hell, I kept a Roman Legion alive from 800 BC until the future era, finally launched a nuclear missile so I could get the achievement for cleaning up fallout with it... only to figure out that I'd used the legion's build charge ages ago on a fort

Also I don't care about fantastic elements in my Civ games. Bring them on. They're usually mechanically sound and often give fresh life to the game. Just look at how reinvigorated my interest got with Apocalypse mode haha.

I'm going to try a one-city challenge to see if it's even possible. As Gran Colombia, because a distant relative of mine was briefly president of Honduras before getting overthrown in a military coup.

The ones for the Maya and Gran Colombia are rather difficult on the face of it too: To Plow the Sea: As Simon Bolivar, activate all the Comandante Generals across multiple games Court of Itzamna: As the Maya, found a city adjacent to four luxury resources I'm not exactly sure about the wording on the Colombian one. The Mayan one would just require a shitload of luck. Crazy Ted fucked around with this message at 03:00 on Jul 22, 2020 |

Colombia has a pool of 10 different Comandantes. Every time you retire one, you get progress towards that achievement. You won't see all of them in a single game, hence "across multiple playthroughs." It's not a difficult achievement; it just requires playing at least a couple games as Bolivar, more if the RNG keeps giving you repeats.

Crazy Ted posted:There really are some absolutely hilarious and hard-to-get achievements in Civ VI. I think there's still a few from the standard, non-scenario game that only 0.1% of players have been able to get. Yeah, there's a couple that are definitely there more for the amusement value than to actually be achieved (I like the ninja turtles and 99 luftballons ones). Scrolling through them all can get pretty amusing and it's also interesting to see the stats (most common victory is science followed closely by culture, most common civ to win with is Rome followed by Germany, most common map size and type in victories is standard and continents, and the easiest civ-specific achievement is apparently Sumeria's - most difficult is probably Russia given that they've been in since the beginning of the game and still only 0.3% of players have gotten it).

It actually works nicely because Pericles is trying to run away with a culture victory and I have to bring him to heel. I tried to get Walk Like an Egyptian recently, but it appears bugged. You have to get Pyramids and a sphinx on adjacent floodplains. But I think changes to the way floodplains work in Gathering Storm broke it? I'm pretty sure they were desert floodplains too. I know grassland floodplains are new so I wouldn't expect them to work necessarily. e: My rarest is "Hello Cleveland!" at 0.2%. Doesn't seem like it should be so rare to play a concert in Cleveland?

I didn't even realize it was an achievement, she just gets a bonus for city-adjacent luxuries so I did it for that reason. After that, it looks like my rarest achievement is "Have your Roman city lose 6 population from one Vesuvius eruption" (0.3%), which is both impossible to plan for and very bad.

A lot of these achievements are just there to irritate perfectionists or as jokes, like Seahenge (okay that was funny) or I remember back in Civ V, there was an achievement for conquering Petra with the same kind of tank that was in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. It's fine though. I'm never going to get them all and every game I've ever platinumed I've had a hard time coming back to, so those unachievable achievements are gonna taunt me forever.

Man I just don't get how you can effectively use early war stuff on higher difficulties, even just on immortal I tried to play montezuma and rush my immediate neighbor brazil with eagle warriors to maybe get some builders and poo poo and by the time I had 3 eagle warriors he had at least 10 warriors with more coming out of his cities what seemed like every turn It just feels like on high difficulties you need a certain amount of time to catch up to the AI's huge start bonuses, which makes the civs that have early aggression strats really hard to play I guess I could just attack a city state and try to pick off their units, knowing that I can't really capture the city?

Archers allow you to focus fire and attack without being damaged in retaliation. The purpose of your eagle warriors is to be fortified in the space in front of your archers.

However you can still steal like a city or 2, depending on opponent AI with just warcarts.

Yeah on high difficulties just spamming melee units is a major trap, even when it's one of the UUs. Like for example, spamming Eagle Warriors from the word go isn't really worth the hassle unless you've got a CS or neighbor literally right next to you, and in any case you don't need to do that anyway because they're Eagle Warriors! They're 28 strength, they're going to stay relevant for quite a good amount of time, especially if you grab some luxes and go for Oligarchy. You can build up several cities and a proper development base, get a bunch of archers to supplement your eagles, and then go kill things secure in the fact that your eagles are a lot tankier than normal warriors and are going to be hard even for horses and swords to dislodge if you play carefully. And then by the time you do so you'll hopefully get a bunch of builders right at the point where you desperately need them.

Okay yeah I started over and had pretty good success by waiting until I had like 6-8 of them and then rolled Brazil and then rolled Sweden and now I control the whole continent and I already have the highest science and culture of anyone I've met so it seems hard to imagine losing this game so this will just be practice of winning it fast enough before anyone can do anything with religion or culture or whatever Does having the holy city of a religion I didn't found do anything for me at all?

To make contact, seek out a Society where its influence might hide: Barbarian Camps, Tribal Villages, Natural Wonders, or City-States.

Fixed various text bugs. Fixed a crash caused by pillaging in neutral territory. Various additional crash fixes addressed [AI] Fixed an issue where AI tracking of Envoys was getting miscalculated when an Envoy modifier was in effect. Additional AI improvements.

Okay so it turns out finding a secret society gives you a free governor title straight up. Even if it isn't used for the secret society itself  So you can find all four secret societies within the first couple dozen turns, spend one of those titles to join one of them and the other three wherever you like. Imagine getting an early settler and starting with both Magnus AND Pingala's first few promotions.

After talking to you guys and other civ people on Twitter, I think I had a combat breakthrough. For some reason it took a lot of repetition for "bring ranged units" to get through my head, but I also think I figured something out -- when there's walls, siege engines are good at taking away the blue health because that's the walls but crap at the yellow health because that's the garrison, and ranged units are the opposite, is that right?
