Sid Meier's Civilization® VI: Ethiopia Pack (DLC)

This expansion is for players who like building their empire on the hills and don't mind a fight over faith. Ethiopia feels surprisingly strong here: your army gets tougher as the terrain rises, and science and culture pick up speed when your cities sit on high ground. The mood is calm, with a sly streak. The highlights: - Your first games with Ethiopia will shake up your usual plan, so you'll need to rethink where to place cities and which trade routes to push. - Oromo cavalry moves across hills without losing speed, so your army stops being slowed by the terrain and starts attacking from strong positions. - The Monolithic Church can be built on hills or volcanic soil, produces faith even where there's usually little to build, and survives natural disasters. - The Secret Societies mode with its governors adds a layer of scheming that Civilization VI didn't have before. This expansion needs the base game Sid Meier's Civilization VI on your account.
