Voidu.com has the new expansion 25% discounted at the moment if you use WINTERMADNESS as a coupon code when checking out!

This is not directly applicable to Gathering Storm but a general Civ VI question...

The AI works on expanding cities one tile at a time and I'd like to direct the AI as to which tile to work on next. I can't find anything in the Civopedia or the fairly worthless manual. Any idea if that's possible (without buying the tile directly) and if so, how. It's probably something really simple that will make me feel like an idiot. Wait a minute, maybe I ...  :uglystupid2: nah, let's don't go there.

Barthheart

Nope there is no way to direct which hex yer city expands too....

Millipede

Well isn't that a pain in the patoot!

Thanks for the info.

I think relative distance to other cities and or citystates cause your invisible bubble of control to change and I've read somewhere that this might push your expansion the wrong way some times.
Otherwise your technology level should count; for example if you have a way of harvesting diamonds and a tile with that resource should become available within your city's expansion bubble the AI should move that way.
But I agree it all seems quite random. For all we know dice are thrown and that results in a certain hex to be added. :P

Anyway, you need to have a reason to spend that Gold as well, so buy that plot of land! You can buy anything up to three tiles from the centre.

Oh, digging a bit further I found that aparently there is a way to show you which tile the city will grab next and how many turns it takes.
It was a feature added in the Fall 2016 patch.  :buck2:



As to how you view this... no idea.  :))

It shows you this when you click on the hex button in the city display at the bottom right. It's how you buy tiles too.

BUT that's not always the hex you end up with when the count down ends. Sometime you'll get a different hex if the conditions you described change.... can be frustrating.... :pullhair:

Hmm can't say I ever consiously noticed the indicator 😊
Probably just never thought about it.

It's helpful when you're considering purchasing a tile and then see that you have a good chance of getting it for free in a few turns.

22% off on GMG today, but will hold off unless someone tells it is a game changer as still pretty expensive for an expansion.

Gusington

^That and a massive 76% off the Civ VI Gold Edition has me reconsidering...
