      welk in the year 3000 will be constructed a "mankind's manifested miracle" wonder, constructed out of 300 000 000 tonnes of steel it will be a world wonder showing the dedication of mankind to overcome all hurdles, butting aside war and diffrences to combat threats unlike mankind has seen....
      And it will be constructed in my backyard too, theres a big floating hologram above it sayng "mankinds manifested miracle: +100 faith, 10+ great savior points per turn, gives +25% tourism to this city, grants unique project "dedicate effort" allowing to but one city production to another city, and being 100% more effective against world ending threats"
      But uh, i dont think you own the dlc to see this wonder....

    I had this start once, back in vanilla civ 6, where I was on a hill on a river with 4 flood plains along a river, 2 of them with wheat, clumped up into a diamond shape right next to my city, 3 tiles with hill forest elephants or something (4 or 5 production each) to kickstart your production, about 75% of the city tiles were hills, 60% of tiles were plains, and the other 40% were desert(almost all hills). With a Petra (obviously) that city was a beast. Unfortunately it was on a borrowed laptop I had to give back and I didn't take a screenshot.

    China can be super OP in this game. I played a game on an Inland Sea map on Emperor difficulty and put a city down in the middle of the desert near an Uluru. Had 4 production in the city and had a 118 turn wait for Petra. With builders I finished it in 15-20 turns. Turned into an absolute powerhouse city especially with the Great Wall going on the Uluru tiles.

    Hey Potato, nice work you're doing with your videos - it's always a blast to watch them! :D
    I have a question I have after about 300 hours of playing with not quite managing to win the majority of my immortal-games:
    How do you weave in religion/holy sites into your gameplan? I never did a religious victory since I dread the micro-management, and so I stay kind of ignorant to the benefits of an early holy site. Even if I see your gameplays with it, I don't get what kind of advantage you are after beyond the pantheon. Instead of a holy site, I would have built an early campus to stabilise in science. I would take a free holy site district of course, but I cannot assess whether a holy site is worth it to postpone a campus or thelike.
    Lately, I did some multiplayer-pvp games with 3+ friends and it has been absolutely amazing. Managed to play two (!) games in 4 hours, and everyone has been full of action! I always thought PVP would be bad since you can get sniped out of a game quite fast, but with friends you can just quit and start a new one. Really recommend multiplayer-pvp, although it's maybe not a good format for let's plays.
    Keep up the good work and stay safe!

    Hi, I'm new to the game, may i ask how do i pop up the information that's shown below your leader icon? (Tech,culture,gold,faith etc etc)? Thank you!! Love the little detail and the way you plan it out, while I always just plan it without thinking that far ahead !

    The square to the south west of the warrior is the best start. Yes. you leave the cotton and the crab for a coastal city later. However. you build on the river. You convert a 1,1 into a city square. First ring features 3 X 3 pt squares and a 6 pt square. 2nd ring features 3 4pt squares a 6 pt square and a 3 pt square plus what you can't see. I would not sacrifice dropping a town on a 4 pt square. nor would i build directly beside a mountain. Plus you do need some garbagy sort of tiles that are preferably good for the districts to build your campus, market place and holy site on.

    Thanks for the lovely series. Brilliant playing, mate.
    You asked for suggestions for a future series so my request is for a domination game (with a big win?) on a fairly big map with quite a few ai players; your choice of civ and map type. Some nice back stabbing and dealing with grievences plus war weariness would provide a lot of learning for us (me!).
    I realize this would involve a lot of units and moving so perhaps it may not be suitable for a 5 part or so series without a lot of editing. Perhaps something along these lines though? Thanks for your time and consideration.

    One single player strategy it seems nobody but me is using is scrapping the whole "scout first" - in Civ 5, this was true since scouts were actually truly supermobile; in Civ 6, they are still fine, although less much so. Especially on deity the time loss incurred by investing in one is too big.
    What I have been doing with great success is a "builder first" strategy. The way to do this is by first using up all but one charges of the builder (usually two; at least one thing that you get with your first tech plus another thing), then sending the builder out to explore. Yes, this has its risk, but is actually almost never punished, since barb scouts only turn aggressive when their camp is destroyed, you only need to be careful if they only have one way to go, in which case they might step on the builder accidentally.
    To make even more use of this, if you settled next to water, you can tech for sailing and then send your builder out over the waters, where they are extremely safe, while staying mobile and getting a lot of intel and goodies. But this depends also on the map type.
    Another added bonus of doing this is that taking ancient ruins with builders does not have the random chance of unit exp or unit healing, which are two of the worst options available.
    I have been using this strategy for about 50 games now, never got punished to a game losing degree - sometimes you lose the builder in the end, but at that point, you should have easily made your money back, while still having gotten two build charges out of it. Also your yields are now much better early on, which propels you even further.
    For people that are going to say that the scout intel is invaluable: give my technique a try for 2 games at least. You will see that a scout is actually just as vulnerable as a builder (the only exception being barb camp stealing - which, with god tier luck, you can still do with a builder!), and with the builder you will still uncover just as much as with a scout. If you play, you can make a perfect judgement on when to call the Builder back to use the last charge even.
    I am eager to hear other views. I agree with most tactical decisions of people like Potato or TheGameMechanic, but the starting strategy is extremely crucial, and I think scout first is just wrong. But again, I am eager for well-tempered debate.

      I don't do builder first because its extremely greedy and if you don't see an AI early enough you die.
      I'll definitely look into it more though

    Damn, that's exactly the first and last map i did on civ6 with the civilization I chosen back.... Except that i had gandi capital at the north that gave me some nice cities to annex and some state cities to the east.... I went to maritime Republic (not sure of the name) and full trade routes.... Was quite fun...

    I have a question about the adjacency of districts.
    Are the adjacency rising or dropping after you have placed the district. For example:
    I placed the theater square and later built a wonder, will it rise +2 or stay with no change? Or i have a Campus adjacent to a rain forest and after i cut the forest, the Campus will lose the bonus?
