Welcome To Civilization 6 a perfectly balanced 4x grand strategy game where you must explore, expand, exploit and conquer your way to success with grand sweeping plans. There are several ways to win a game of civ 6. Go for a space race and win a science victory. Go for a conquest victory fuelled by a classic ghandi civ 6 nuke. You can try a culture win or heck a sneaky diplomatic victory or a culture victory. Now a few years ago we managed a civ 6 no city challenge:
NO CITY WIN ONLY CHALLENGE - CIV 6 Is A Perfectly Balanced game WITH NO EXPLOITS Except Maori: • NO CITY WIN ONLY CHALL...
We managed a diplomatic victory by just hiding on an island. Today however using the new civ 6 rulers of china dlc leaders. Using the new unifier perk we are going to be destroying the games diety ai by swarming the world with overpowered zombies that can steal our enemies cities and allow us to speedrun one of the fastest and easiest conquest victories possible! In this unique Civilization 6 challenge, we embark on a journey to conquer the game without building a single city. This no city challenge presents a whole new level of difficulty, as we must rely on other means to progress through the game. From diplomacy to conquest, we explore different strategies to achieve victory. Join us as we navigate through this uncharted territory and see if we can conquer Civilization 6 without cities
So sit back and watch as the spiffing brit tests to see if Civilization 6 is a perfectly balanced game with no exploits or if the No City Only Challenge is broken!! How can you even win a game of civ without settling a city! This is almost 100X better than the civ 6 one city challenge videos ;)
This video game exploit video will be jam packed with a best bits funny moments montage style of editing similar to that of Valefisk, Robbaz and RTgame. So sit back relax and grab a cup of tea to enjoy with the spiffing brit!

In this one, he's staying true to The Sea People heritage, showing up from nowhere, curbstomping the sense out of everyone in the surrounding area, and then rolling out with zero explanation. Absolute KZbin move.

[@Maniacman2030]

The only people who think we(the West) don't have a culture are the people who have been in it for so long, it's become so normal for them, they don't even notice and have become bored with it. Yes, even the bland foods Europeans started out with ARE part of the culture, because the climate we lived in didn't allow for the conditions of the plants said spices from Asian, Central/South American and African countries came from. A lot of said other countries didn't even have the food, cooking, or baking methods we did until our cultures met. I just find it blatantly stupid that people say Europeans don't have a culture. Just a look at various foods, traditions, sports, and festivals held by even the smallest rural towns in the U.S. and Europe disproves that entirely. We've just become so used to those things, we don't even see them as anything different from our norm. I just think that rhetoric is meant to demoralize those of us who take pride in our upbringing and history.

There's a new exploit in "Songs of Conquest." The new upgrade short cut feature allows you to convert stacks into their upgraded form. Nice ease of access feature. However, the Ravana have their top tier unit start at stacks of 10, then go to 3. Max stacks of the basic unit is 20. Care to guess what happens when you use that ease of access feature to upgrade that full 20 stack of basic unit into a dragon? That's right, you end up with a 20 stack of dragon. Now, you can rofl stomp the game with a wieldier holding 100 dragons with a command level of 5. Very balance
