Come and Join us for the First Civ6 Game of the Month

By | November 4, 2016
0 Comment

The Game of the Month is a friendly competition designed to help us all learn about Civ6 and, together, improve our game play.  We start from a common save, with a common goal, and, as we play, keep notes on our actions and decisions.  We then share what we did and discuss the merits of our actions and, in the process, learn from each other.

The first Civ6 GOTM features Trajan of Rome in a King difficulty level game on a Standard Sized Continents map at Standard Speed.  You can find the game announcement and, at the bottom of the announcement post, the game save that you can download.

Please join us and help us learn how to play Civ6.
