‘Civilization 6’ Guide: Which Civilization Should You Choose Based On Leader Ability, Unique Structures, And Units?

One thing "Civilization" fans have noticed is that the game is becoming increasingly complicated as each sequel pops up. One important aspect of "Civilization 6" most players take for granted is what race they should choose when starting the game.

This first step towards world domination is really important. Players of "Civilization 6" should choose a race that best suits how they want to play the game. There are civilizations that excel in military prowess as well as there are others better suited for cultural dominance.

Here are some of the top races of "Civilization 6", their leaders, and their different abilities:

Rome: Their leader is Trajan and his ability is to give each city a free building in the city center. Rome's special unit is the Legion, which is an upgraded form of the Swordsman and has the ability to build forts.

This race has the ability to earn some gold for each Trade Route that goes through its posts. A unique building that Roma can grant gamers is called The Baths. Basically, it is like the Aqueduct but gives out more housing and amenities points.

This race is absolutely apt to those who love to hoard gold and do a trade.

Norway: Their leader is Harald Hardrada. His ability is giving naval melee units the ability to do coastal raids. Norway gives players the Stave Church which gives off bonus faith points when place near forest tiles.

Norway has an ability called Knarr. This will make embarking and disembarking of units not cost any movement turns.

This race produces a unit called the Berserker. This unit can pillage with less movement.

This race is perfect for sea conquests.

Spain: Leader is Philipp 2 who possesses the ability to give combat points to units who are engaged in attacking other units of a different religion. Spain has a unique building called Mission which gives science points if built near a campus.

Spain has a unit called the Conquistador. This unit is best used when banded with a missionary or inquisitor on the same tile.

Spain also has the ability called Treasure Fleet. It means that trade between continents will make extra benefits.
