If you want to get into space, you must get to Rocketry as quickly as possible (Flight is a prerequisite). Civilization 2 Deity Difficulty Run.

Emperor. Immortal. DeitySince the computer players are not controlled by advanced AI, but instead behave based on a very long list of if-then statements (i.e. Cannot learn from and react to the player's strategies by changing their own accordingly), the game makes the AI leaders more challenging opponents by giving them advantages on higher difficulty levels.

The bonuses conferred to both human and AI players on each difficulty level are listed in the tables below.All of the information presented here comes from an info page on and the game's XML files. Contents In Vanilla and Gods & Kings Player BonusesPlayers receive gameplay bonuses that diminish as the chosen difficulty level increases.

I'm not sure if this is complete or has been posted here before, however, I found this while looking on reddit earlier:One thing to note here is that, unless there's more than this page shows, the AI seems to get generally fewer long term bonuses than it did in V, though it does get some pretty substantial buffs. I also don't see anything here with regards to growth, housing or ammenities, which is interesting, and explains why even on diety the AI is constantly plagued by rebellions, especially during war periods, where their carpets of doom start racking up insane war weariness when you kill it.The biggest benefit seems to be an insane 3 settlers and 2 builders on deity, though I wonder how many times barbarians kill one of those settlers before it gets to found a city. Any other interesting observations you can find from this? The AI starting with 3 settlers normally means I get a bonus early settler!

Its a bonus to human players! Deity is a bit of joke right now. Probably the easiest civ game at release and to see such bonuses given even on Emperor is pretty bad to say the least. ( Never liked Free settlers ) It feels like the AI plays the new systems in Civ 6 much worse than Civ 5 which is disappointing as that's what i was most hopeful this time they would design game systems with the AI's limitations in mind, not just give it even more outrageous bonuses when they find its worse than ever with the new systems.In saying all that the terrible AI in Civ 5 didn't stop me playing for 2k hours. And it hasn't stopped me from playing 100 hours of civ 6.
