Common misconception about the first Ethio-Italian war though! Although relying more heavily on melee weapons than the Italian army, the Ethiopian Imperial army under Menelik II had a decent amount of rifles and artillery, and the marksmen were highly seasoned from the wars of conquest that they fought throughout the 19th century!
So I used to be a Magnus apologist, but I've actually found over time that the Settler thing isn't nearly as strong as it sounds. At the point in the game that I do my settler push, it tends to be that my settler building city is right at its pop limit. So losing a population isn't much of a problem. Even with a granary for the extra limit, I'm usually pretty much capped out. There are some games where, depending on how much territory is up for grabs, I'll go for for free settler Magnus. But those are typically on extremely open map types like Highlands. Conversely, and while you're somewhat correct that the relative effectiveness of Pingala goes down in the late game, *getting* to the late game is the challenge of Civ 6 on Deity, not winning it. If you survive the Medieval Era, you're going to win if you have any clue what you are doing. So similarly to your point about not rushing campuses (a point with which I agree, outside of god-tier adjacency campuses), understanding the long game means setting up snowball-style advantages, which Pingala does in the early game by generating massive amounts of both science and culture. You can easily come back to vertical Magnus in the late game if you want, or, if your empire isn't designed to effectively utilize a vertical Magnus strategy (which for me is often the case as I don't typically spam Industrial Zones due to their AoE effect), you can easily win a scientific victory with Pingala. I actually think the argument between Magnus and Pingala is centered nearly 100% around the early game. They are typically my first two governors, but the real debate is whether I will get more early value from the chops or from the passive science/culture bonus. If it's a chop tier start, I spend one title on Magnus, which only briefly delays Pingala, and if I am not set up to be cranking out builders yet, I wait until I am ready to chop to appoint Magnus. As alluded to earlier, there are games where going free settler is highly beneficial, but I find it very rarely outweighs the massive boost to science and culture at the point in which the game is still in the balance.
You don't really need population in this game. I focus more on grabbing the land and all the nearby luxuries so that I can make friends and trade. After turn 80 to 110 that's when I usually start the backstabbing. If a player is worried about population all they have to do is chop/harvest the wheat/rice or marsh or jungle. You should be chopping down the entire map anyways.
This is a great summary of the dilemma. I only go Magnus first if there are lots of chops and I really need them. Pingala and Connoisseur as first two governor titles is usually the best.
Hey man, loving your videos. As a new player to CIV 6 these are really helpful. One thing I might suggest is some kind of general document as a 'Beginning' build order. Running through that during a video as a very basic "this is what I would do to improve/learn as a new player". Keep it up King

@@sweetlemonade123 I have a friend who just started playing three days ago. She and I are currently doing an allied multiplayer on Prince difficulty and I am able to give her some tips and explain some of the game mechanics as we play. If you have any friends who you could do this with, I'd recommend it - on-the-job training!
It's pretty simple once you get the hang of it. Build a military first and make friends with the AI. Grab the spots with the Luxuries asap for trade. Get at least an army of 8 or more units and try to steal some settlers off your neighbor. Try to make allies with some neighbors and gang up on one or two of the other Civs that everyone hates.
Most science games I just focus on one mega-production city, a Liang city spamming builders, and everyone else building districts and projects. I don't like Pingala as my first governor for the same reason I don't like the 30% builder card. An extra 15% early makes almost no difference.
You might find this funny but i try to get the pantheon for making holy sites give +2 amenities and housing. If your good at placing districts its a wonderful tool to help with all types of wins, from what ive seen
Okay, I do have one question. How do you keep your cities from growing past a certain point? Do you destroy one of your farms, effectively ruining a farm triangle, or is there a better way to do so? I tend to have a lot of cities in the late game, so I don't want to get tok micro intensive. To help balance the extra cities, I use Sucritact's extra amenities so there are a lot more luxury resource types. And the further I expand, the more luxury resources I have access to.
Honestly it isn't like civ 5 where you can avoid growth. Just work all the non food tiles for production and gold if you can. If you still end up growing not a lot you can do lol. Working specialists also helps tbh
@@marcus3457 usually only 1 over if any. You can use both changing the tiles your working and not building as much housing infrastructure to make it so they take really long to grow. I'd say most cities want 2-3 districts while building other stuff like wonders and units in the meantime.
What works for me taking an easy science victory with Korea is splitting in the early game. My capitol gets a holy site first, I settle a second before turn 25, and that second city gets a campus first. I hunt tribal villages and barbarian outposts while generating scouts and builders, prioritize production improvements while running each city on food, then settle a third before turn 60. I dedicate that city to a campus, build one in the capitol, then build specific wonders in the capitol from there for the boosts, and level up starting troops to save gold instead of sacrificing them on bad combat pairings with barbarians. I got the science victory before turn 350 on a 750 turn game, entirely erased a competing civ in the process, and the AI couldn't keep up in the slightest. I took and maintained an early lead that only grew each turn. That's just what worked for me.
The last tip is HUGE. I started micromanaging food after a city hits 4 population. I'll let it grow to 7 eventually for a third district but 10 in every city is gonna kill you. Just by getting one copy of your continents luxuries and colossuem is all you need.
@@duyas1628 yes. Magnus to at least free settlers. and i also like to have that food bonus before i build the culture tech guy. then that is a minimum get both. From there grab the envoy governor and i like the dude with the fishing boats. Having every town build a trader ASAP and send that trader to the capital for extra food. plus of course... the road. Huge.
LOVE YOUR CONTENT. would like a video explaining the value of purchasing amenities mid game. i would love to see you take a look at if buying an amenity for X gold a turn actually increases the gold you gain per turn due to increased yields from the amenity you purchased.
I agree. Just last night I was marching my death robots across the globe wiping out civ after civ only to randomly lose the science race. I was pissed.
I honestly just turn it off in my single player games. It’s boring and not really fun. I hate the “do the objective = win” stuff because it doesn’t really feel like it interacts with the other civs. I also turn off diplomatic a lot of the time because it’s absurdly easy. Culture, domination, religion, and I guess score stay
Ive been playing for a lil while now.. where did you get the throne building part from?? I remember it in Civ 1,2 & 3.. never played 4 or 5 .. now I* see you have it on 6..
Thanks for lovely content our fav boy(or dad). As for the amenities tip do you think specialists are bad? Also, many streamers like potatomcwhiskey and gamemechanic are growth/science lovers even as alexander. They trained many scouts, and a very early campus in their alexander runs. But in your alex video, you killed barbs and beelined bronzeworking, put down the encampment and basilikoi asap. You trained hypaspists, upgraded warriors and grabbed the general so timely. You dom topped eleanor so hard that I got wet and my pelvic muscles loosened by watching it. You grabbed a ton of promotions to your infantry and you were even in such a good spot, also you grabbed like 10 eurekas/inspirations as alex. It was the moment that I realized early campuses were so overrated especially when you are about to attack early.
You alluded to it (Germany better than Korea at science), but ye civs that have strong economy are really good. Strong economy is important to any victory type. Is the reason Russia is so good
I find it useful to frequently seek out my neighbors luxuries they are willing to sell, and buy all of them. A lot of the times you can trade your own resources for them, like horse/iron etc. Save the gold. You can trade/buy all but the 1 that they need to maintain amenity balance. Having these 30 turn luxuries increases amenities to the max in most cases, giving you that beautiful +20% even very early on within 30-40 turns.
@@TheCivLifeR 1 do 3 to give units, get the twins and get my units from them, and then do settlers for 3 to 5 good cities and get the rest from war, generally

I'm playing as Atilla right now on marathon and was basically dropped in the heart of Africa next to perciles and a bunch barbarians horse men who pretty much invaded me 20 turns in. Somehow I fended them off and just bid my time until Renaissance Era. I pretty much maxed out pop growth to hit early empire built 3 more cities for luxury. (Was at plus 5 at one point) built roads to the closest city to Athens. Crank out production for units. ( thank you +2 convoys to capital) and just made archer and horsemen and eventually swordsmen and now I own all of Africa. I didn't take Chad though ): took the general because of all the threats I had to deal with. Looking at chadnus and Pingala they would seem like the choice to really start early game. Have so much rainforest tiles I got just use for production if I want atm.
Heya, just curious about one thing: how do I stop a city from growing? I've tried it before but simply "stopping" food yields or reducing them will more often than not lead to starvation, do I have to juggle it perfectly and manually per city, so my food yield is +0 or at least something like 375 turns to grow, or is there a way to tell the game to stop growing and I'm not aware? 😂
When I play, I either focus on culture, gold, and amenities or science, gold, and amenities. I play on the hard levels so I always have them declare war on me.
Keep it up bro, nice content. Also, will you again make videos about restoring stuff, but with other civilizations?(for instance: restoring Macedonian empire, Roman empire etc.). These are the best videos in my opinion
I use a mix of Commercial, Industrial, and a few Campuses (to make Babylon's 50% research penalty not so bad on a few techs) to build a strong military with Hammurabi's OP Eureka special ability. Why build settlers when you can just steamroll city states? I also completely avoid religion as it's such a headache I can do without. Go ahead, flood my cities with missionaries! Yes, 'Chadnus' aka Magnus does get his big ol' dong plopped on the table as he's simply OP and it's great!
I like just making friends with my surrounding city states while I focus on science and money, you don’t need to waste resources on the military when you just rent someone else’s lol.
government plaza + colonization + 3-4 cities building one. Its more of a high end goal to achieve so your not that far off if you get 8. I just find that I win 99% of games if I settle 10 in 100 turns
I love making big bad cities. I go with 4 to 6 cities and spawn wonders starting around turn 100. Usually end with around 30+ wonders and a culture victory. Any rate there are many successful strategies.
Everything the game suggest you do, this guy will argue about it. Now how can I defeat a powerful religion, never been able to build missionaries or apostles.
Not sure but getting lots of wonders with china and having +4 religion yield per wonder is my way. I love z wonders and if i get lucky I'll form a religion.
Am I the only one that has experienced multiple infinite turn glitches? Idk why this happens, but I get it about 3 times a game which is really annoying
@@TheCivLifeR you press end turn and it starts processing the next turn stuff, but after its done with it it doesnt stop processing and you have to force close the game and open it again
@@overjoe1475 Yeah but if you take out your nearest rival it gives you way more territory to develop. My normal first action first to make several warriors, take out an enemy before they have a second town, taking their workers and settlers, then I develop my land. I've never played online though, it probably wouldn't work against actual people. Against the computer though it works every time. It gives you a head start on all victory types too because the enemy capitol produces bonus science and culture. I've won on the hardest difficulty multiple times with that strategy.
One more common mistake... Building the granary.. Absolute waste of a building in vanilla. At the least in my Jnr mod it gives +1 food to pastures, farms and plantations. Also the first district you make should always be the Holy Site... I thought it was obvious as religion is limited in nature...
Religion is too hard to get on Deity. It's not worth the risk for most civs. The granary is okay. You don't want to be stuck with insufficient housing. Getting a third district slot is pretty important.
@@jyutzler the first district hence should always be the Holy Site... The Holy Site and shrine plus a holy site project ensures you a religion no matter who you are
You can absolutely get a science victory without building a single campus. There's so many ways to get science without campuses (Trade, Religion, City State-Diplomacy) you just don't need what the Campus does.
@@TheCivLifeR Honestly i never got the hang of the civ 2 throneroom or civ 3 palaces upgrades. Could never figure out why I just couldn't seem to get those upgrades. Although in some humour, for the first time in 20+years I don't have any version of civ installed on my main PC. (excluding the times I've been changing PC's)
it only ever takes 3 units to deal with barbs. 3 thats all i ever use it is all you need. i never play the wussy victory modes it is pure conquest in my world. i always have at the least one city pushing science and i max it as fast as i can. when when aall else have 100 on science im bouncing 300 while they pushing out swords men im pushing out musket men. so i think i will keep my strategy all of your seem to be fails.
Civ games have no AI bruh.... I just quit playing before I came to this video. I got bored because I actually gave the other Civs I like some iron while no one else had it but me. You think the AI used that iron? Hell "phuk" no! Then the AI will ask for niter and I'm like, what the "phuk" for? The AI clearly does not upgrade old units to better units so why the "phuk" would it ask for the next best thing when it won't used what it has? Lame @$$ "bullchit!" This is what people spend their money on.... Pure garbage now! Back in the early dawn of gaming, companies didn't have the luxury to patch a game or roll-out a DLC..DCL...what ever the "phuk!" They had to make sure the game was error free and loaded with fun-factor before they released that "chit" because too poor AI and errors, would mean major recall and money back to consumers! The internet "phuked" up gaming because it allows for patches and expansions! Companies now don't even bother to test their own production to make sure that it's not just error free, but actually going to play well! That kind of unprofessionalism is going to destroy the gaming industry! Just wait....the end is coming! You might be dead and "chit" when it happen, but rest assured, it will happen!
Hey! I'm italian and you joking with my national army? We know that the last decent Italian army was that of the Roman Empire... but please... LOL

I use a mix of Commercial, Industrial, and a few Campuses (to make Babylon's 50% research penalty not so bad on a few techs) to build a strong military with Hammurabi's OP Eureka special ability. Why build settlers when you can just steamroll city states? I also completely avoid religion as it's such a headache I can do without. Go ahead, flood my cities with missionaries! Yes, 'Chadnus' aka Magnus does get his big ol' dong plopped on the table as he's simply OP and it's great!
I like just making friends with my surrounding city states while I focus on science and money, you don’t need to waste resources on the military when you just rent someone else’s lol.
How you get the civ 3 castle om civ 6?
I use to just build whatever wonder I could complete the fastest lol
I played an awesome Deity start with Dido and only managed to crank out 8 cities by turn 100. Is it actually possible to hit 10 cities by turn 80?
government plaza + colonization + 3-4 cities building one.
Its more of a high end goal to achieve so your not that far off if you get 8.
I just find that I win 99% of games if I settle 10 in 100 turns
I love making big bad cities. I go with 4 to 6 cities and spawn wonders starting around turn 100. Usually end with around 30+ wonders and a culture victory. Any rate there are many successful strategies.
Ur such a good youtuber I can tell we would be friends irl
Everything the game suggest you do, this guy will argue about it. Now how can I defeat a powerful religion, never been able to build missionaries or apostles.
Not sure but getting lots of wonders with china and having +4 religion yield per wonder is my way. I love z wonders and if i get lucky I'll form a religion.
what was that palace mod?
what the heck are you doin at 0:33????
that is the thrones and palace mod. you can make it with this mod. it is from the older civ3
@@misterivo4141 Never saw that, THX!
You, Good Sir, just got a like in 10 seconds for the comment "worse than Blockbuster not buying Netflix". Back to watching the video.

when did they add the palace upgrading from previous games
mods: thrones and palaces
How do you mark more than one Civic at once (like in 3:35)? Is this a mod?
Hold shift, it will start a queue.
Its not. If you hold shift and click on a civic it will queue it up and research it after what you already selected.
@@ryanculbertson5765 thank you
@@alex2005z thank you
Ok I am on the PS5; how do you get to your throne room????? I never knew this was an option until I saw in this video.
I think it's a mod or dlc
Am I the only one that has experienced multiple infinite turn glitches? Idk why this happens, but I get it about 3 times a game which is really annoying
how does it work?
@@TheCivLifeR you press end turn and it starts processing the next turn stuff, but after its done with it it doesnt stop processing and you have to force close the game and open it again
I get straight total game crashes instead of that. XD
Thanks
Welcome
I take out scientifically superior civs every game with spies and troops.
Find the nearest enemy capitol and take it. I don't generally make a settler until I've captured a couple towns.
I think you should stay off wars for the first 50-100 turns making settlers uses far less resources and money
@@overjoe1475 Yeah but if you take out your nearest rival it gives you way more territory to develop. My normal first action first to make several warriors, take out an enemy before they have a second town, taking their workers and settlers, then I develop my land. I've never played online though, it probably wouldn't work against actual people. Against the computer though it works every time. It gives you a head start on all victory types too because the enemy capitol produces bonus science and culture. I've won on the hardest difficulty multiple times with that strategy.
9:42 he didn't take his own advice rip
I thought o was kicking ass on science the then Russia got industrial era or whatever before turn 100. This game screws me no matter what I do
One more common mistake... Building the granary.. Absolute waste of a building in vanilla. At the least in my Jnr mod it gives +1 food to pastures, farms and plantations.
Also the first district you make should always be the Holy Site... I thought it was obvious as religion is limited in nature...
Religion is too hard to get on Deity. It's not worth the risk for most civs. The granary is okay. You don't want to be stuck with insufficient housing. Getting a third district slot is pretty important.
@@jyutzler the first district hence should always be the Holy Site... The Holy Site and shrine plus a holy site project ensures you a religion no matter who you are
meh you can have them both i always just put mag in my capital
Came for the info. Subscribed for the jokes.
Goldfish is best but cheez its are very good too
theyre both top tier
Honestly I’m appalled that I’ve watch so many of your vids with out sub. My bad and take my sub.
Always look out for butt, because usually butt will butt.
You can absolutely get a science victory without building a single campus. There's so many ways to get science without campuses (Trade, Religion, City State-Diplomacy) you just don't need what the Campus does.
gg no re, send this man some cheese
lmao
i dont agree with this video.
I never get campuses early, but I ALWAYS wish I did. A campus is NEVER a bad thing.
Love the joke’s peppered in
Hang on, what the fuck is with the civ 3 palace?
thrones and palaces mod
@@TheCivLifeR Honestly i never got the hang of the civ 2 throneroom or civ 3 palaces upgrades. Could never figure out why I just couldn't seem to get those upgrades. Although in some humour, for the first time in 20+years I don't have any version of civ installed on my main PC. (excluding the times I've been changing PC's)
What IS the point to have a meaningless video that doesnt sync with the narrative?
it only ever takes 3 units to deal with barbs. 3 thats all i ever use it is all you need. i never play the wussy victory modes it is pure conquest in my world. i always have at the least one city pushing science and i max it as fast as i can. when when aall else have 100 on science im bouncing 300 while they pushing out swords men im pushing out musket men. so i think i will keep my strategy all of your seem to be fails.
Civ games have no AI bruh.... I just quit playing before I came to this video. I got bored because I actually gave the other Civs I like some iron while no one else had it but me. You think the AI used that iron? Hell "phuk" no! Then the AI will ask for niter and I'm like, what the "phuk" for? The AI clearly does not upgrade old units to better units so why the "phuk" would it ask for the next best thing when it won't used what it has?
Lame @$$ "bullchit!" This is what people spend their money on.... Pure garbage now! Back in the early dawn of gaming, companies didn't have the luxury to patch a game or roll-out a DLC..DCL...what ever the "phuk!" They had to make sure the game was error free and loaded with fun-factor before they released that "chit" because too poor AI and errors, would mean major recall and money back to consumers!
The internet "phuked" up gaming because it allows for patches and expansions! Companies now don't even bother to test their own production to make sure that it's not just error free, but actually going to play well!
That kind of unprofessionalism is going to destroy the gaming industry! Just wait....the end is coming! You might be dead and "chit" when it happen, but rest assured, it will happen!
I always knew Magnus had a big weiner
I see your tactic, you make videos so bad people just can't help themselves click on them to argue.
Your jokes are cringe.
Wrong on almost all accounts! Lame!!!
Please man, stop saying "civ 6 or civilization 6", everyone knows civ is Sid Meier's civilization
