Explore New Frontiers with the Herta Space Station Leader Pack for Civilization VI
Prepare to expand your horizons in Sid Meier’s Civilization VI with the exciting Herta Space Station Leader Pack! This comprehensive mod introduces the enigmatic Herta Space Station as a new playable civilization, complete with two distinct leaders: Herta and Asta. Immerse yourself in a unique gameplay experience that blends scientific advancement with strategic expansion.
Meet Your New Leaders
Leading the Herta Space Station are two formidable figures, each offering a unique playstyle.
Herta: The Unconstrained Innovator
Herta’s abilities allow for a revolutionary approach to technological and civic progress. Upon founding a city, you’ll receive a “Puppet” unit, a valuable support unit with its own promotion tree. Herta’s unique gift allows her to research Technologies and Civics without meeting prerequisites, greatly accelerating your empire’s development. This bypasses the traditional research path, enabling rapid access to crucial advancements.
Asta: The Resourceful Financier
Asta offers a different, yet equally potent, path to victory. Beginning with a substantial gold reserve, Asta excels at leveraging the game’s economy. The ability to purchase districts with gold provides unparalleled flexibility in city planning. Furthermore, Asta can accelerate research by spending gold equivalent to 2x Science or 3x Culture costs, and benefits from significant discounts on gold purchases as her empire progresses through the ages, especially after unlocking Astrology and Astronomy.
The Herta Space Station Civilization
The Herta Space Station civilization itself boasts unique mechanics designed to foster rapid growth and cultural influence.
- **Space Sealing Station:** Newly constructed districts trigger a Culture Bomb, expanding your borders and influence. While specialty districts forgo adjacency bonuses from other districts, Level 1 buildings within them gain a Great Work slot of any type. Each Great Work further bolsters your empire, granting Science and Production based on your city’s population.
- **Puppet Unit:** This unique support unit, stationed in the City Center, grants its promotions to the city. As you complete districts, your Puppet gains promotions, becoming increasingly valuable.
- **Special Purpose Lab:** Replacing the standard Research Lab, this building is cheaper, unlocks earlier, and provides double yields at the cost of increased Power demands. It also offers an additional Great Work slot and Housing, with powered labs doubling the Culture yield of Great Works in the city.
- **Railway Platform:** A unique tile improvement that provides Production and Gold, with bonuses for adjacent districts and city population. Completing a Railway Platform triggers a Culture Bomb and establishes Classical Roads, with units gaining the ability to teleport between them after unlocking Flight.
This mod requires the Gathering Storm expansion to fully experience the innovative gameplay it offers. Prepare for a fresh and engaging journey through history with the Herta Space Station Leader Pack!
