[NFP] Vietnam & Kublai Khan Pack (January 2021) - Patch Notes Discussion

[bengalryan9]

Read closer:

• Fixed an issue where the player could get multiple free technologies from building the Mahavihara after repeatedly becoming the suzerain of Nalanda.

Mah tier list!

 

[8housesofelixir]

No fix for Nalanda in patch notes.
So we're still seeing T70 SVs.

• Fixed an issue where the player could get multiple free technologies from building the Mahavihara after repeatedly becoming the suzerain of Nalanda.

Umm?

"Fixed an issue where the player could get multiple free technologies from building the Mahavihara after repeatedly becoming the suzerain of Nalanda." ???

Since Civ VI is near the end of its development, I can only hope that somewhere in the future, an inner challenge of maintaining your empire can be a problem to solve instead of a harshness to get rid of.

Yeah, you phrased it wonderfully.

Seems to me like Maui would work well with corporations... yeah, there's some luck involved in getting the right resources to pop, but if you focused on the terrain types that have higher odds of popping luxuries (I think desert and tundra?) you could really reap the benefits.

I'm not seeing any preferred religion listed for Ba Trieu. I don't see Kublai (Mongolia) listed at all in the Civopedia.

Especially flat deserts, where no Bonus Resources will spawn, thus making every charge of Maui a Luxury.

Good to know! Let's see... you could get incense (+25% faith), ivory (+30% production on military), salt (+20% growth and +3 housing), or silver (+25% gold). No science or culture, unfortunately.

Ed confirmed on Twitter she doesn't have one.

Has anyone found any goodies in readmes that might hint toward our final civ? Or on how the last game mode will work? (Barbarians?)

The supposed barbarian one would be in the February update, which means we'd be guaranteed two more. There's one in March which we have no idea.

Second last, AFAIK...Barb Mode comes with free Feb update and the last civ is accompanied by an unknown "paid" regular mode. That would make 8 modes in the end (6 regular and 2 free), which is kind of "round".

EDIT: Ninja'ed.

Has it been confirmed that it's a game mode, and not just an update to barbarians for the regular game?

BRING ON THE AIRPLANES!!!

Oh so Gandhi is garbage tier now? Good to know.

Good point. AFAIK, not directly...but IIRC, at some point the description of the NFPs free content it was said something about "game modes"...so that plural it is where I draw my conclusion from (provided that Aprils free update has a different, big focus not allowing the "minium" 2nd free mode to fulfil that plural)

Please start a seperate aircraft discussion tread about the impact of this patch. When you guys get some experience playing with the januari patch. I am quite excited to hear more about this. But wont be playing civ 6 for at least a couple of days.

together with the new game mode. This patch seems quite interesting for at least a couple of new runs.

Guess I will sell every piece of my Aluminum to AIs and see what they are going to do about it.

 

[mielony]

Improved use of aircraft in combat for AI . When someone plays, let them write something about AI. Thanks

Sigh... the roads are still wonky on the Switch. I already submitted two support tickets about it. Do I have to send another one?

Trieu historically would be Buddhist, but isn't as much of a Buddhist figure as, say, Basil or Menelik are Christian ones. Her lack of preference is more of a balance choice.
