Unlock Strategic Capital Placement with Expanded Initial Vision for Civilization VI

Starting a new game in Sid Meier’s Civilization VI is a crucial moment, and your initial capital placement can heavily influence your entire playthrough. Traditionally, this decision involves a degree of guesswork and precious early-game turns spent blindly exploring. The Expanded Initial Vision mod for Civilization VI aims to revolutionize this experience, empowering you with the knowledge to make truly informed strategic decisions right from the outset.

Make Smarter Decisions from Turn One

This innovative mod grants you immediate visibility of the surrounding terrain within a configurable radius around your starting Settler. No more wandering aimlessly for ten or more turns, hoping to stumble upon optimal city locations, vital resources, or strategic chokepoints. With Expanded Initial Vision, the map unfolds before you, allowing for immediate assessment of your surroundings. You can swiftly determine if your starting position is ideal for immediate settlement or if a short trek will lead you to a far superior location. This saves valuable early turns that can be better spent on establishing your first city, gathering resources, or expanding your influence.

What Remains Hidden?
