"Barracks Bonus" +25%?!

[AlpsStranger]

What do they mean? Does the unit get 25% more XP when it fights from now on or what?

I can't seem to get any clear info on this...

 

[Karmah]

That's the only interpretation that makes sense, yet I don't see it in the pop-up numbers. Maybe we should look at the actual numbers progression in a unit XP bar?

 

[AlpsStranger]

No, same XP required, no initial XP granted either. WTF is going on?!

 

[Mustakrakish]

Well that means you get +1xp when you'd get 4-5xp and +0xp when 3 or lower so no wonder you're not noticing it.

And the UI doesn't bother to show the boosted XP rate anywhere on the actual unit

Love love love Civ6 but that's pretty irritating. It needs a little badge or something on the unit so I know it at least acknowledges having the bonus!

I agree with you. I've loved my time playing the game but there is a lot that needs explained better (or at all).

Very much this. There is a lot of great detail in the game mechanics but which is almost totally opaque to the player.

A lot of the info screens are very information-dense but actually tell you very little relevant information. The lengthy city production report gives you a huge breakdown of sources of income, but doesn't give me what I most want to know: what is each city's total production and what is each city constructing? The UI is verbose but sort of tone-deaf.

They really need like a chevron system for it. I know a few odd great generals and such do the same thing. Like a chevron for every 25% or something.
