Already a member of Prime (or the wife is). GMG I can't complete purchases because my PayPal is not 'verified'.. oh well.. will keep looking, or I'll wait for the first sale. Thanks!

Did see $40 from here....according to the page, although sourced from Europe, they indicate not region locked and can be used anywhere....

Region Free

The game keys we are selling are sourced from the EU. They are completely region free and include all languages. This means that since this is a steamworks game, you can activate the key from anywhere in the world. There are absolutely no region locks.

I have Amazon Prime, and I just checked...no go. No benefit or reduction in price. Still $59.99..although with free shipping (of course). I see absolutely no reason not to get the Steam version.

Second leader for Greece!  :D

As someone who has played the hell out of every Civ game since I, Civ VI is shaping up to be the wet dream of all Civs

It all comes down to the combat model. They HAVE to have stacking in some form that means something.

Here's the combat.

10 minutes of war.  Hmmm.. in 5:39 I see a WW2 bazooka guy fighting ancient Mongols (or are those supposed to be renaissance pikemen).  It gets worse as you watch further.  Crossbowmen attacking Strykers.
Is technological mismatch more common in this iteration?

[Barthheart]

Yeah I think that was a Ren. era pikeman.

Who knows what the setup in those games were, so it's impossible to tell if the tech mismatch is more common or not..
Looks to me like it was a bunch of setup situations to test the old "spearman kills tank" complaint of the early civ games (I, II & III even in IV)

Love the Fog of War map effect.  O0

Also like the vertical launch missile animation for eh nuke sub.   :D

You WILL be able to combine units into a "Corps." Also, you can link settler units with military units, to move them as a group.

I would highly recomment watching Quill18, and his excellent youtube lets plays. He has two, each about 20 episodes in length, at about 30 minutes per episode. This is 20 hours of Civ VI goodness...quite enough to serve as a pretty solid tutorial. Personally, this is a first day purchase. I can't tell you how many hours I have played Civ, in all its variants. Probably #2 all time, behind WoW.

did this - now frothing for game - looks excellent

[JudgeDredd]

I really enjoy quill's videos - and I'm scared to go and watch them. I think it was his videos that persuaded me to buy MoO and Stellaris (I think).

[Grim.Reaper]

Got my key and now pre-loading....

[RedArgo]

it is just sitting in my list of games all grayed out, taunting me, and I'll be gone most of this weekend. :P
