![]() If you are planning on going on the offensive early game you may want more units, but this is plenty to start. From craftsmanship you got the agoge card which you want to put in once you get it so that you can quickly build 4 warriors and 4 slingers/archers, this is a solid starting army to fend off barbarians, deter other civs and to escort your settlers. The other thing you want to do is build a starting defensive army. Culture in the early game is more important than science because you want to get your first government unlocked for more policy cards. In that second city you settled you want to build a monument immediately for the culture and in each city you settle you usually want to build the monument first. So after your starting build order there are a few other things you want to focus on. Archers are key to early defense and expansion so you want to unlock them quickly. ![]() Slinger – an early ranged unit for defense against barbarians, but more so that you get the boost to archery so you can then upgrade the slinger.It also boosts craftsmanship which has the agoge card which is very important early. Builder – once you have 2 or 3 pop you want a builder to improve 3 tiles so that you are working optimum tile yields.Having 2 starting cities really helps you build the early infrastructure and units that you need. Settler – as soon as you hit 2 population you want to get your first settler out.Sometimes you might even want to start with 2 scouts but stick with 1 for now. Scout – exploring is key in the beginning for tribal villages, city states, civs, and good settle locations.Your Build Order after your Capital is Settled Ideally you will have more 2 2 tiles available within the first 2 rings as well as 4 or 5 hills for mines (later on flat forest is fine as well for lumber mills). You want to have at least 1 2 food 2 production tile in your first ring of tiles to be able to work initially.The only normal terrain that will add to the city center is a plains hill which will give you 2 food and 2 production instead so look for plains hills if you don’t have a good resource to settle on. Later in the game settling on resources may not be as beneficial as you will likely get better yields from putting a tile improvement on the resource instead, but for your first 2 cities at least settling on resources is ideal. What this means is settling on a resource (particularly a luxury resource) will actually give you a better city center than you would normally have. A city center will default to 2 food and 1 production, however settling on top of certain tiles that have extra yields beyond that will add to your city.Later cities can be settled off of water if you have no choice as long as you can build an aqueduct. Settling on coast is fine as long as you build a harbor adjacent to the city center for the housing. You always want to settle the best housing when available so this means fresh water is priority (especially for your capital).The sooner you put down your capital the better, but sometimes moving a bit is necessary. You do not want to take more than 3 turns to move to where you are going to settle your first city.They are really not necessary for a win in civ 6. other things you could be building and are tricky to plan the placement of. While there are good wonders in 6 they are often not worth the cost vs. Their unique district adds free housing and amenities which is a mechanic that tends to annoy new player as the game bombards you with notifications about it.Īs a new player I also recommend that you ignore wonders for your first few games.With Rome you can wait to decide what win type you want to go for based on your situation and what districts you will have good spots for. They can aim for any victory condition.They have a good early unique unit for both attacking and defending in the early game which helps for any win type.Their unique ability requires no effort on the players part which means the bonus is 100% consistent and useful in all games.However, we suggest going down that road once you’ve got the fundamentals down with Rome. ![]() For a comprehensive list of the best Civs, check out our Civ 6 Tier List by clicking here. Rome is NOT the best Civ in the game, but this is still our recommendation for the reasons outlined below.
