America: Rutherford B. Hayes
Lead America with Rutherford B. Hayes in Civilization VI
Step into a new era of American leadership with the Rutherford B. Hayes mod for Sid Meier’s Civilization VI. This mod introduces President Rutherford B. Hayes as a unique leader for the United States, bringing distinct abilities and strategic nuances to your gameplay.
Reconstruction Compromise: A Unique American Advantage
Hayes’s signature ability, the “Reconstruction Compromise,” offers a compelling boost to your empire’s development. During periods of either Dark Ages or Golden Ages, cities that maintain a garrisoned unit will experience a significant +20% Production toward all Projects. This encourages a strong defensive posture to fuel your industrial and scientific advancements. For cities that aren’t garrisoned, you’ll still receive a valuable bonus: +15% Production toward Builders and Settlers, alongside a +2 Loyalty per turn. This dual-benefit system allows you to strategically choose between rapid expansion and focused development, all while maintaining internal stability.
Solid South Agenda: A Diplomatic Approach
Hayes’s “Solid South” agenda reflects his historical focus on domestic policy and reconciliation. He prioritizes maintaining the loyalty of his cities, often at the expense of a large standing army. Consequently, he appreciates civilizations that share this sentiment and avoid aggressive warmongering. This agenda encourages a more diplomatic and internally focused playstyle, rewarding players who can manage their empire’s happiness and growth without constant conflict.
