Civilization Vi Switch

Sid Meier's Civilization V is the fifth offering in the multi-award winning Civilization turn-based PC strategy game series. As with earlier installments in the series, Civilization V features the famous 'just one more turn' addictive gameplay that has made it one of the greatest game series of all time. Back to Civilization V Go to the list of leaders A civilization is a specific historical nation, which represents a player in the game. Each player adopts a single civilization at the setup of each game. Besides the name, history and leader, every civilization has a set of unique features which set it apart from the others and give it particular advantages These features are: A unique gameplay. Civ 5: Civilizations and Leaders Unique Ability, Unit and Building List for Choosing a Civ to Play. This list of all 43 Civilizations and Leaders available in Civ 5, Gods and Kings, Brave New World and Steam DLC/Scenario Packs shows the bonuses you get when playing each Civ - from their Leader's Unique Ability (UA), to the Unique Units' Stats (UU), Unique Buildings (UB), and Terrain.

There are 43 civilizations in Civ5, each with its own leader and unique unit. In addition, every leader has a semi-unique “personality”, consisting of traits that determine their in-game behavior.

For example, Elizabeth of the English, a historical naval power, emphasizes a pursuit of naval dominance and the choices she makes reflects this desire. However, in order to prevent leaders from becoming too-predictable, these traits have the potential to be changed slightly and weighted differently before a new game begins, keeping diplomacy fresh.
