Civilization 7 is finally here after a long wait of almost ten years since the last game. Fans are excited, and it’s easy to see why. This latest installment offers new ways to win, including a unique feature called Legacy Victories, along with fresh leaders and civilizations to explore.
Every civilization has its own strengths that guide players towards specific victory routes. For instance, if you choose Amina with Aksum in the Antiquity Age, you can aim for an Economic victory. Her abilities boost Gold and Resource capacity, making it easier to achieve that goal. Players looking for a Science victory should keep an eye on options available in the Modern Age.
Meiji Japan: A Strong Choice for Science
Meiji Japan stands out for those pursuing a Scientific victory. The Meiji Era revolutionized Japan’s economy and introduced innovative ideas, allowing it to compete globally. In Civilization 7, players can harness this potential through science-focused strategies.
Bunmei Kaika Civic Tree
For players who want a solid military to protect their scientific advancements, the Bunmei Kaika is an excellent choice. It introduces the Fukoku Kyohei tradition, allowing players to earn Science points equal to a percentage of what they spend on training military units. This means players won’t miss out on scientific progress while developing their military forces.
The Oath in Five Articles Civic Tree
If you want to fully commit to scientific victory, the Oath in Five Articles Civic Tree is your best bet. It enhances the production of Science buildings and unlocks the O-yatoi Gaikokujin tradition, boosting Science and Production from Specialist units. Focusing on Specialists can significantly aid players on the Scientific Legacy path.
Civilization 7 introduces Legacy Paths, allowing you to earn points in different areas like Science, Military, Culture, and Economy through various achievements. Completing these milestones can greatly enhance your chances for success in future ages.
Himiko: Queen of Wa
Himiko, the leader representing Japan in the game, is also geared towards achieving scientific victory. Her “Friend of Wei” ability allows her to gain a 25% Science bonus when forming alliances. Additionally, she’ll receive +4 Science for every leader she is friendly with, making her a powerful ally in any match.
