Mix & match? With the introduction of Sid Meier’s Civilization VI they also introduced a new way of configuring and representing art in the game. The artists from Firaxis Games have created a whole bunch of seperate parts. Think weapons, shields, bodies, hats, armor, etc. And then provided a way to attach these different parts together at predefined attachment points. Those parts are aptly named attachments. Now I hear you think: “But they have these specialized tools to make that work!” Well yeah, but since the release of the modding tools (Patch modding tools announcement) us mere mortals get…
Introduction My old graphics card So I have used my trusty MSI GTX 970 Gaming 4G for some time now. Let’s be honest, that card is still very good.

Here is the entire Civics Tree as found in the press preview build in a short video: Here is the entire Technology Tree as found in the press preview build in a short video: Enjoy! Bye bye for now.…
Press Preview, part 1 Along with (presumably) a lot of other youtubers, magazines, gaming websites, etc. I got a preview copy of Civilization VI as well. And I sincerely thank 2K Nederland for that! Some pointers to this press preview copy: It has 10 leaders out of the 20 in the final game; It has only 3 map types; Only one difficulty (Prince) is available; Three out of six map types are included for me to choose. For two main reasons I will not be doing a series of Let’s Plays. First, there will be so much content out…
