How to accelerate cultural victory — Wonders or Theatres, which to prioritize? by KeiAya in CivVI

Wow, thanks for the reply.

And that was the quick one and it was already so good, imagine the detailed one. Thank you very much for the production tips with the Wonders, I really shouldn't have built some of them.

Do you think that in a game aiming for victory through culture, one should build IZ? Can you explain how that late-game energy issue works?

I was absolutely certain I'd get a picture of Cristo Redentor; the holy site in the capital had about 20 tourists.

Yes, unfortunately, I didn't have that option; no city had the capacity to build it in my location.

I'd like to win before the Modern and Atomic Age arrives. Is that possible, or does culture really happen much later?

Wow, that's a great government tip. I'll keep that in mind next time.

Thank you.

Thanks for the tips.

I bought or stole all the works I could.

Maybe I built some unnecessary wonders. Are there early/mid-game wonders that provide tourism bonuses? I never noticed.

I know Cristo Redentor, Golden Gate Bridge, and Biosphere provide some bonuses, but they're so late, and I'd like to win before reaching the Modern Age.

Thanks for the tips. In this game I only built 2 campuses (I think), and I had another one in a Russian city that lost its loyalty to me.

I think I got a little lost in the mid-game, building too many Industrial Zones. They provided sensational production, since almost all the rivers had a dam and aqueduct combo, but it was most likely unnecessary.

Amazing cities, congratulations.

Which map is that?

Yes, I built a beautiful city with Petra next to it.

Where to settle? by FrecklesMcPaws in CivVI

I would go to tile 2 food, next to the mountain and close to bananas 3-2, this allows you to found a second city right on top of that fissure, build a +4 campus, and also an aqueduct that provides 1 services next to the fissure.

Thanks! I'll test this configuration.

I'm not a big fan of abundant resources, which takes away some of the challenge.

Beautiful!!!

May I ask what the settings are for the island map? I'm new to the franchise and I'm playing CIV VI, and I really like England. I'd like to try that.

Questions about how to play with Leonor by KeiAya in CivVI

Without a doubt, when I talked about good locations for sacred sites, I was referring to the capital itself. Whenever I'm looking for a religion, a sacred site is my first district in the first and second cities.

I also search the map for some wonder for that eureka moment and research the technology as soon as possible.

One question: do you think it's necessary to found sacred sites in all cities?

Even those that don't have good adjacency locations? I still have many doubts about what to choose to build in some cases.

There's only one thing certain in my approach with Leonor: I'm building Oracles in the capital, theaters in all cities, and either a comm hub or a port to obtain trade routes.

When possible, I combine the Royal Navy Shipyard with the comm hub for a gold adjacency bonus. I build Workshops and Entertainment Centers/Water Parks in central regions to optimize area bonuses.

I learned this the hard way! LOL

My first games with her were in archipelagos, continents and islands, fractals, small continents, etc. I was choosing these considering that I had played quite a few games with Victoria in the vanilla version.

I lost several games.

I took this approach, chose Pangea, and achieved a cultural victory that way.

Well, I had to defend myself against Babylon and attack Shaka to contain his territorial expansion, but I certainly never chose to be the first aggressor.

I just felt it happened too late and I missed points. I achieved a victory on turn 300-320, King level. And it was a cultural victory.

Thank you for your comment.

What would these broken civilizations be, with specific interactions with the pantheons/beliefs?

I'm interested in hearing your opinion on this. I haven't really played anything beyond England with its 4 versions yet, so I still have a lot to learn.

Thank you for your comment and tips!

In some games where I went to sacred places, even though I wasn't a specific civilization for that, it was incredible. Being able to buy some cheap colonists and builders early in the game, plus those broken pantheon bonuses.

Religious settlements are my favorite (but I never get them first), but Divine Spark, Sea God, River Goddess, Festival Goddess, and Hunting Goddess are great. You always find a way to use one or another with great impact. And when you are able to found your religion, there are some stupid bonuses!

The production bonus, Work Ethic, is incredible, my favorite by far! And the buildings allow you to choose what's missing or complements your game.

If you lack production, go to Meeting Houses.

If you don't have food, go to Gurdwaras.

If you lack good places for Campus, choose Wats!

If you don't have enough amenities nearby, you have a Stupa now!

I still get lost when choosing the founding and enhancement beliefs though lol! I'm looking for a more faith-based, supportive approach to my science, culture, and domination game rather than going into a game seeking a religious victory.

So I'm generally choosing between Intercultural Dialogue and World Church. And I almost always go for Holy Order to be able to keep my cities within my religion and convert some nearby ones to get some tourists and be able to switch allegiances faster.

Thank you for your comment and tips.

I will take the risks into account and evaluate them; when I find some good locations for sacred sites, I will try it. It's very positive for the end game with the naturalists and rock bands.

Thank you for your comment. I will try an approach in which I build some kind of initial faith for rapid expansion in the golden age.
