I did not pick up Civ VI, but have added it to my wishlist.

It's available for $12 if you sign up for the monthly Humble Bundle.

Golf course?!? Shouldn't Scotland's unique improvement be a distillery?  :wow:  :P

Good point. I like that Scotland is in though.

DL is done.  I did get the Yet Another Map Pack that BH had suggested.  Are there any other mods that are highly suggested or that you guys like.

I like Dale's Religious Units Border Control, Embark Earlier, and Hotkeys.

[edit]
Hotkeys is a must have IMHO.

Thanks Mike.

Early Settler Embark and Pidgist Religious Border Control were both on Steam Workbench.  Looks like the Hotkey one I'll have to get from the forum.

Anyone interested in starting a Grogheads multiplayer matchup for Civ 6?
There's always mucho complaining about the state of AI, but if we take the fight to eachother instead we can only lament the state of our own mind, while enjoying everything else the game has to offer. O0

We can use the Play Your Damn Turn! service to automate hotseat savegame distribution, effectively making it a Play by Email game where everyone can play their turn in their own leisurely time.
Alternatively I can provide savegame distribution manually in case the service has a fit (wasn't able to load the page today).

Might be prudent to wait until the expansion is released before we kick off.

What say ye? Yay or nay?

By the way, this is an excellent map pack:

Can you really do a PBEM mail with Civ? Doesn't the beginning have simultaneous moves (or at least the other Civ's did)?

There is a little trick they use by using the Hotseat game mode and sending the savegame around to each player in turn. The PlayYourDamnTurn is a handy automation service with a taskbar client to monitor when your turn has arrived.
I personally havent used it yet, but I read it works flawlessly and effectively enables PBEm play for Civ 6.
I believe in hotseat mode each player gives orders and then simultaneous execution turn is played.

Well that sounds interesting! If we can get a game of CiV VI going using that method count me in.  :)

I agree that we should wait for the R&F DLC.
