The difference is that it is considerable more powerful against enemy troops, but doesn’t do as much damage against cities.

This appears in the mid game and replaces the trebucheh. Still, in many games in which you are not by significant amounts of water, this will not come into play. This can help you control the oceans and the ranged attack can help a lot with capturing enemy cities. This replaces the Caravel but is considerably more difficult to destroy. The less impressive of the two is the turtle ship. This means that if you have focused on science you should be near or at the top.Īt least as big an impact are their special units. By the end of the game you should be ahead perhaps one or two technologies of where you would be without this ability. Where this ability really helps is that it allows you to focus more on special people as well as science. This means that the first real bonus you’re likely to see from this is building a library. At the beginning of the game when +2 science is important you don’t have the ability to use specialists. Finally, you get a science bonus every time you build a science building in your capital.Īll of this sounds like it should have a huge advantage, but the truth is that it, like most of the abilities, is more minor than it seems. In addition if you build a great person landmark you’ll get a +2 science bonus for working it. This comes with a +2 bonus to science for each specialist. In the case of Korea they get significant bonuses to science. Like all civilizations in this game, they get two unique units and a unique trait. The primary addition to Civilization V in this downloadable content is the Korean civilization. Still, while this is certainly at least a nod to a customer base that the makers of Civilization would like to expand, it is also an interesting expansion with two additions to the game. Not only do they have a long and interesting history, but they play a lot of video games. That is where the downloadable content comes into play, and it is hardly surprising that the first of the new civilizations added to Civilization V are the Koreans. Still, there is room for addition and one of the major additions is the ability to play more civilizations.

With random maps, many civilizations and the ability to tailor your civilization’s abilities, you can play for hours. Civilization V is a game of endless possibilities.
