#4 Intermediate Player Tutorial - Emperor China - Civilization Vi Rise and Fall

[@jamesnunn8928]

Came back to an older video of yours here, taking some of your tips and guidance on how to play China/culture victory - I have all DLC so I take into account the difference in current gameplay as well. I just want to tip my hat to you because I have put in a great deal of time into Civ VI, but watching your videos over time has allowed me to continue enjoying the game at a higher level. You open my eyes to a lot of things like how to plan your victory, where to put your science or culture and when to switch it up, bla bla. And I really have taken it on board. So thanks for working hard at your videos dude 🙂👍 greatly appreciated!! Really enjoyed your God start video with China as well! Take care of yourself!

[@BryceCream09]

I've been looking for videos like this series for a while now. Came across this and it really got me back into Civ. Great Work!

[@ThePolo77j]

It's funny looking back at these older Civ VI videos - the search function is a real powerful addition - you don't have to guess whether something has or hasn't been built or click and drag the map all around looking for resources to settle on .. just search that shit.

[@pitohui9430]

I love your series.I won a culture victory with Indonesia on Emperor yesterday with your tips in mind.

[@SortOfEggish]

Just finished my third ever victory, this time with a Culture Win playing as Eqypt and this guide was profoundly helpful! Managed to get the win con before the Eiffel Tower was constructed too!

Happy new year!

I've never heard squashing the beef, but squashing a beef would basically mean burying the hatchet.

[@O_Rhogar]

You are the first person that I listen saying "Cristo Redentor" correctly

[@esbenrasmussen2419]

If you build your unique improvement I believe you would've gotten a golden age

[@DynaCatlovesme]

I'm American and have never heard "squash that beef."

[@jocapoc]

Beefs is a way to call small fights or arguments, isnt it? So squashed the beef sounds like ammending peace on this fights or w/e im not american as well.

[@DynaCatlovesme]

@@jocapoc I guess "squash" is sometimes incorrectly used to mean "squelch." So, "put and end to" or dampen is the meaning more or less. And yes, "beef" is often a euphemism for a disagreement or fight.

[@jocapoc]

@@DynaCatlovesme yeah, that makes sense. in portuguese we say something like "to put the viola back into the bag" as to give up the fight and i think it has that similar "funny grandpa slang" vibe

[@ItsAeroga]

I've never heard anyone from where I live in America say "Squash that beef" but now I'm sad cuz it's hilarious and should be used more

[@SortOfEggish]

I guess you never listened to DMX, rip

[@WitherBossEntity]

The advantage of wonders is that they look pretty.

[@haoye2413]

I see a lo of American say “never heard squash that beef”, i heard it all the time I guess its actually a Canadian thing.

[@MaddyBird666]

I’m surprised more Americans haven’t heard “squash the beef” before. I’m from Texas, maybe it’s a southern thing.

[@Nobledoum]

i was waiting for that before the new eve party, thank you and happy new year!!

[@johnnyw6565]

Squashing beef means that you are ending any problems you may have with someone that may be bothering you. So if a person I know is being annoying and we have “beef” or a problem, we fight which ends up “squashing the beef.” This effectively ends the problem or “beef.”

[@DjDanee87]

Don't know what your experience is with the AI, but i've never seen you asking them to stop converting your cities. In my games, on lower difficulties mind you, sometimes - not always - the AI agrees to stop religious agression. I don't think you lose anything If you try and they say no.

[@Redbird-dh7mu]

DjDanee87 the AI rarely says yes if they are serious about religion. Assuming the AI actually likes religion, then they will say no

[@Saracen93]

I really enjoyed this playthrough. But I disagree that China doesn't have good bonuses. China gets 10% more on their eureka/inspiration boosts, which is at least 10% free science/culture throughout the game + an extra builder charge. Also, Mohenjo Daro fixed your housing issue so beautifully that it's painful to see you wasting time on aqueducts.

[@panashefundira2731]

You should multiply that by the percentage of eurekas/boosts that you're likely to get throughout a game.

[@matthewtanner7206]

"Squash the beef"="forget the problem/drama" Way to tell kids the fight isnt worth it

[@eduardo3652]

Have you asked Jadwiga to stop converting your cities? Sometimes that actually works.

[@MrHewlettcraphard]

I'm rather puzzled as to why he didn't try that as well. Especially since they're allied.

[@abeke5523]

Haha, in one of my games AI's settler was heading towards the location where I wanted to settle, and I asked not to settle close to my cities, and that actually worked! AI's settler stopped heading towards that location and just stood without moving. Then I settled. lol

[@Wowluckylolz]

I'm curious for this answer as well. I usually don't play on higher than Prince difficulty cause I've been wanting an advantage, but this made me interested in going for the harder difficulties.

[@leomann3085]

Happy new year! Like the tutorial series. After one king dom win with Gilgamesh(Cavalary galore) and one emperor domination win with Norway(Harbours and ships extravaganza), I'll think I will try do an emperor game with France, going for culture win. What wonders are key? Should I go for a religon?

[@csgoplayer-ne5wn]

@@ubuk-5676 he was just asking some questions and discussing this wonderful game. no need to be rude

Bring out the fluffy pillow!

[@Porsonkorno]

Did you build Apadana with builder charges? Since you said you wasted production building it...?

[@Zubair4387]

its a pity that a great wall maybe could get the golden age secured. great video 👍

[@zemadrussian91]

With the forbidden palace, would it be better to place builders into the wonder itself, and saving the chops for things builders can't be crushed into, like districts? (I know it's for China only, but kinda curious)

[@GabrielSoares-ju9yq]

china's ability to use builders charges on wonders only works for ancient and classical ones

[@zemadrussian91]

@@GabrielSoares-ju9yq good to know thanks

[@AncientHunter]

In my experience the AI very rarely builds the Eiffel tower. so you can get that easily.

[@Vermin8er1]

"What she said" Hahahah :-D

[@reidskull5018]

Is Kongo the best tourism civ? I got my first victory as them the other day and the only major disadvantage I noticed was that it was hard to get enough faith to buy naturalists.

[@Isengardtom]

Too bad about the golden age I think it would have been easy to get it by buying a galley or converting one of the new settled cities

[@lucashellot9622]

What’s the point of chopping through walls first before a wonder? Does it do anything extra or does he just want the walls?

[@afonsobrandao5627]

He's got the 100% production towards walls cards equipped. Walls don't cost a lot to build, so he can use a builder to chop something for a bunch of production, and that get's multiplied by 100%. A tiny bit of that will be used to actually get the walls, and the rest "overflows" into your next project, which in this case is the wonder. Effectively, he's abusing that card to create a "100% production towards wonders" card. Which would be very overpowered if it existed. You can also do this for districts and other expensive things

[@lucashellot9622]

Afonso Brandão ok thank you
