Of the many Victory types in , the Scientific Victory is one of the more challenging to achieve. Winning it requires investment in Science and Technologies, and there are multiple steps required to fully complete the Space Race project that ultimately completes the Scientific Victory. If players want to properly set themselves up for a Scientific Victory, they will need to choose the best leader for the task.
In, there are multiple leaders that can achieve a Scientific Victory, but a select few are specially equipped for the task. Here's a look at 10 of the best leaders for players looking to achieve a Scientific Victory in, and a few general tips for utilizing their unique attributes.
While most other leaders on this list have abilities or features that boost Science in some way, Germany, led by Frederick Barbarossa, is one of the best Civ 6 civilizations for achieving a Science Victory if players utilize its Production capabilities strategically. Production is essential for a Scientific Victory once players begin the research projects required to launch into space and beyond. However, this can only be done with a solid city-building strategy that centers around one unique German building, the Hansa.
Players will need to take advantage of the Hansa, Germany's version of the Industrial Zone, which is cheaper to build, provides a +2 Production bonus for certain adjacent districts, and further Production bonuses based on district or resource placement. The Hansa is essential for maximizing Production output and eventually pursuing the required Science research projects for a victory.
This won't be the traditional approach to a Scientific Victory, but Hammurabi is capable of taking the lead in researching technology through Babylon's Enuma Anu Elil ability. This feature completes an entire technology after triggering a Eureka, as opposed to just a portion of it, at the high cost of –50% Science output per turn, forcing players to focus on completing Eureka tasks
