Have you ever played Russia in Sid Meier's Civilization VI and thought, yeah I think he needs to be stronger. Well in this video we found a district combination that completely nullifies Russia's biggest weakness while keeping all of his strengths. And it's with my favorite district in the game, the preserve. Set the map to "Wet" settings for best results.

If that doesn't work, remove Babylon from leader pool and set them all to leader pool 1 cause I do that sometimes.
Save file for deity is also in the discord!
I like to go Feed the world with Peter to avoid the food problem. If you combine that with Hermetic Order, you can get super cities and still have lots of production because of your population. Ley lines will always spawn heavily in Tundra, so your Lavras can potentially get to +10 or better combined with aurora pantheon
Definitely a very good option when playing secret societies. Hermetic Order for the win!
Feed the world super good for Peter. But I will try feed the world with preserves
I never use Hermetic Order, maybe I’ll give it a try with this plan!
Now I want some preserves. Maybe strawberry.
I tried my first game at diety difficulty recently. I did the Holy site and grove as the first 2 districts in every city almost. It worked great! Easy to put national parks everywhere for amenities
Ya love to see it. Peter is a fantastic first-time deity civ.
This was so much fun to Watch. Please continue this game soon
Hoping for weekly uploads!
The other good way to get some food early on is to put Magnus in the capital with surplus logistics promotion and he will give an extra 2 food on domestic trade routes. Then your second district in every city can be a commercial hub and you can trade for your food.
Yes love this strat especially with civs like Tokugawa. Russia gets really good international trade routes over domestic so preserves seem to be a good alternative
You're an F-ing genius. I love playing Peter but the lack of food was always frustrating. Using the breathtaking tundra tiles with preserves is actually genius. Great video homie, insta subbed.
Felt pretty big brained when it dawned on me as well!
i enjoy ur commentary but especially the personality. keep making cool vids
A HUGE compliment! will do!
Praying to the goddess of Al Gore Rythms Pantheon
Close enough lol
I am definitely trying this strat. Seven seas maps are my favorite map type btw, so its nice to see it get some love.
Set the map settings to Wet for best results!
First video made by you that I watch and by how enjoyable it was to watch the Subscribe Pantheon will be my pantheon of choice today
Welcome to the Nerds!
I have definitely under utilized preserves in my games. I definitely want to check this out.
Gets even better in the next video, up tomorrow!
Awesome vid! Another civ that I like with perserves is Canada. Using Mounties to build nat'l parks on top is just amazing. Not as powerful as Russia, but still good.
Love preserves with Canada! I usually skip holy sites (cause russia does it better anyway) and go straight for preserves into theater and entertainment to rush conservation and Mounties super fast!
1st time here, and instantly subbed the channel, i loved this video!
Welcome here!
Great video man
Great comment man
Love a good Preserve strat!
Best district in the game!
Underrated Civ youtuber found and subscribed to! Do you have a discord server?
Yes! Link in description but ill post here too: discord.gg/h3pBenNTnq
I love doing Russia with preserves, although it always annoys me when I unlock coal/oil and can't take advantage of them without ruining my appeal!
Will have to see where they spawn in my game! Sometimes you get lucky and you placed the preserve directly on top of the tile so you still get the resource 😆
If you're playing Heroes mode you can use Maui to kind of scout for it. If you can't use his ability on a tile outside of your territory, there's a strategic underneath it.
A great hidden strat!@@jameshall1300
I always love to play Peter with Civilization Expanded mod, totally fun to play cause you can work a mountain with that mod.
Love that mod. Especially +1 science for breathtaking tiles as Inca
My mate plays Russia all the time and I end up trading him wisselbanken to get to 7 pop. Every time, every time, I tell him put a preserve per 2-3 cities, its 8-12 food to share.
Wisselbanken is a fantastic way to get food! Preserves do come online faster, so great of you to push for them!
0:21 TFW the Diplo Victory gets so disrespected that you use the Score Victory icon. 😢
HA! I didn't even realize!
how do you have the adjacency bonuses showing up when you plan out districts is it a mod?
Yes! Detailed Map Tacks. One of my all time favorites. Link in description for my whole mod list.
Honestly, I think Stupas would have been a better pick than Gurdwaras. You'll have growth covered, but I think you'll start to outgrow your amenity supply.
Stupas are great! Gurdwaras are gonna help especially in cities that don't have preserves like in the northeastern mountains though. Both choices are totally viable
thanks for this strat as russia, love you
I'll make any civ a preserve civ!
what kind of mod shows the contentment of cities in the top panel and the level of prestige?
Happiness and Growth modifiers! Should be in my mod list in the description!
will the concept work on mansa musa on deserts ?
It won't work nearly as well unfortunately. Desert tiles cannot have woods, and tend to be very average appeal, so its much harder to find preserve placements, especially with your tendency to want mines for gold per turn. Mali also tends to already have an abundance of food surplus given the civilization ability granting food and faith per adjacent desert tiles. You might be able to make some preserves work with nazca lines (which give appeal) and a wonder like Uluru which can be fun. But it usually reliable to your build.
I too choose the Subscribe pantheon.
I choose you
Are you playing with the bbg mod?
We are not, this is vanilla Russia in all it's OP glory.
Though, with BBG I know Preserve Discounting would be fixed. If only they fix it in base game
For extra food, you could also adopt Feed the World and the Gurdwara.
Yes, but that's the thesis of this whole video. Work Ethic is too good to give up on Russia. Preserves solve the food issue while maintaining work ethic production capacity
@@whiteandnerdytv_ Ah yeah, makes sense
But with consistent +6 or more holy site adjacency, would Feed the World really be worth it over Work Ethic?
Not really the +6 dosen’t do anything with Feed the World
(+ 2 food and housing for every buildings in any holy site)
But the +6 guaranteed production from work ethic + Tundra tiles makes Russia a manufacturing menace even in the early game
@@trumpet-titan4122 that's what I meant, because they thought about taking feed the world over work ethic
u get to work 3 extra tiles with the food tho... which can translate to -> 3 mines -> up to 12 production and a extra district. Feed the World is better imo
That's why we went Work Ethic here. Too good to pass up. Since Feed is linked with shrine/temple value, not adjacency, Feed tends to win out on low adjacency holy sites while Work Ethic wins out on high.
@@Bootyboy31 It's still a good option! But remember, feed is 12 production eventually while work ethic is 6-8 production immediately, 12-16 production at theology, without even building your shrine or temple. The Work Ethic/Preserve combo gets the best of both for high food, high production, and extra districts, which is why I wanted to show it off
I like your personality
No U
Why is my Work Ethic belief different from yours? It says 1 production for every 4 followers & Gurudwara for me doesn’t give +1 housing. Damn confused
Are you playing with base game civ 6 without the DLCs? Gathering storm DLC tweaks a lot of mechanics like this. Base game Gurdwaras do not provide housing, and work ethic is different but it is a percentage production modifier based off population usually.

This is exactly my optimal russia gameplay lol.
Pick russia - settle - literally pray for the aurora- choose aurora - work for religion - work ethic - toa - preserve - win
Its that simple. Tbh, i hate russia for the fact that doing things this way would guarantee you a win by renaissance or industrial era (sometimes even by medieval). Its just that good. And the fact that i always play hermetic order makes it worse, because its so damn hard to get to the atomic era to witness those glorious resource tiles. I know that feed the world would provide more balanced gameplay, but it just doesnt sit right with me to choose a subpar option as a minmaxer.
And to all naysayers, feed the world Russia will never reach the glory of work ethic Russia. You're essentially comparing a great strategy to a broken one. You could literally just spam settlers and lavra to get those great people or if you really want to Speedrun and win by classical, just do a religious Russia game in a pangaea map
Glad we stumbled on similar strategies!
it makes me so mad you didnt play secret societies viodsingers 😩😩
I agree voidsinger with preserve is my meta if you can get hercules you could make preserves really quick. I found alot times hard to get cities to grow to 4 for preserve so herc with initial preserve then get to 4 real quick
ist boring, too OP
Agreed, Obelisk + Mother Russia + Lavra + Preserve quadrable dip faith income is BUSTED! Maybe a relic on top of that?
my fav russia strat is lavra + commercial hub, go full internal trade route, real communism play
Another great way to play russia!
Real Communism play with Russia ? Let’s hope it works in game unlike in real life
Do you know the seed?

I always turn barbs off. They're just annoying.
If they ruin the fun, straight to jail
