Better Farms
Enhance Your Agricultural Empire in Civilization VI with Better Farms
Revolutionize Your Food Production
Tired of waiting for late-game technologies to unlock the full potential of your burgeoning cities? The Better Farms mod for Sid Meier’s Civilization VI introduces significant early and mid-game improvements to the humble Farm tile improvement, allowing you to cultivate your empire’s food supply more efficiently and strategically. This mod breathes new life into an essential aspect of city management, empowering players to establish stronger economic foundations much sooner.
Key Improvements and Gameplay Adjustments
The Better Farms mod focuses on making farms a more versatile and rewarding improvement throughout the game. Here are the core changes you can expect:
- Early Access to Hill Farming: Unlock the ability to build farms on Hills much earlier in the game. Instead of requiring the late-game Civil Engineering technology, farms on Hills become available once Animal Husbandry is researched, opening up vast new possibilities for city placement and expansion.
- Production Boosts: As you advance through the technological tree, your farms will become even more valuable. Upon researching Machinery, all farms gain a crucial +1 Production, further boosting your empire’s overall output and accelerating your ability to construct buildings and units.
- Expanded Farmable Terrains: Previously restricted terrain types are now open for agricultural development. Farms can now be constructed on Oases and Marsh tiles, providing new opportunities to develop otherwise challenging or less desirable locations into productive food sources.
Seamless Integration and Compatibility
Designed with compatibility in mind, the Better Farms mod integrates smoothly with the existing Civilization VI experience. It is fully compatible with all official DLCs, ensuring that your gameplay remains uninterrupted. For players utilizing the Gathering Storm expansion, this mod further enhances the strategic options by allowing Canada to build Tundra Farms on Hills as early as Animal Husbandry is unlocked. Furthermore, Better Farms is designed to work harmoniously with popular mods such as Civilizations Expanded and Farms++. However, to avoid conflicts, it is recommended not to use this mod alongside Rebalanced Mines, as Better Farms incorporates similar farm-related adjustments.
By incorporating Better Farms, you can expect a more dynamic and rewarding early-to-mid game, allowing for more diverse city-building strategies and a stronger overall civilization. Cultivate your way to victory with these essential agricultural upgrades!
