Sid Meier’s Civilization 7 tips and tricks
- Gather as many happiness points as possible in each city. While at the beginning it may look like you have enough or even too many of them, later into the age an event called crisis starts, which can lower your happiness greatly.
- Send scouts in every direction to quickly discover interesting resources and ideal places to build your next towns.
- Think twice before you build anything. The game introduces dependencies between various buildings and terrain… but you can’t destroy structures.
- Attack with archers first. It is quite an obvious thing, but nevertheless, let’s emphasize it. Thanks to that your melee units will be able to lose less HP.
- Don’t build your towns too far away from each other. Thanks to that, you will be able to maintain a relatively small army and protect settlements at the same time. Using the saved money, you will be able to boost your economy.
- Pick your fights. It is not a good idea to be surrounded by enemies. Try to befriend some other grand nations and neutral cities. If you must/want to fight, try to have opponents from the one part of the continent. It will allow you to focus your defense on strategic points.
- Don’t forget to distribute resources and codices between cities. They give powerful bonuses.
- Befriending neutral cities is often more profitable than destroying them. Remember though that they disappear between ages if not annexed.
- You can’t reach distant lands before reaching the second age.
- Army commanders, while pricey at the beginning, are a great way to organize your army. Use them.
