The last major update to the tier list was in May 2021, which reflected the significant April balance and update patch. The update involves answering all of the most commonly searched questions about the game, which can be found on our last page. Last Updated: November 2021 with a major update. We will be ranking everything from leaders and civilizations, to pantheons, to wonders and natural wonders for the complete game (vanilla plus Rise and Fall, Gathering Storm, and New Frontier). 5 science in my particular first game brought me from +7 per turn to +12 per turn, which is huge.In this article, we decided to put together the ultimate Civ 6 Tier List. Writing is discovered incredibly early, and a Great Scientist at that point in the game is basically +5 science forever (a free tech at that point is worth less than 100 beakers, so the breakeven for just building a +5 science academy is less than 20 turns I see no reason why at the discovery of Writing you would do anything except build an Academy-an 8-turn golden age with just one or two cities isn't very effective either). Leader bonus: Ingenuity - Gives one free Great Scientist with the discovery of Writing, and doubles Great Scientist production rate. The description also says it powers up the city's bombard power, but I'm not sure yet whether that's just a direct effect of the added defense rating or if the Civilopedia doesn't enumerate that additional benefit properly. Costs only 80 hammers instead of 100, and provides 7.5 defense instead of 5.0. Unique Building: Walls of Babylon - Replaces standard Walls. Unique Unit: Bowman - Very nice ancient era unit, replaces the 4/6 (combat/ranged) archer with 6/8 (description acts like it only affects melee power, but the ranged power is also +2 per the Civilopedia). Add Babylon for me ^.^ lovely nation having an edge in the startup of your civilzation:
