Do multiple city state bonuses stack?
(the bonuses you get from 6 envoys)
(tried googling)

i have 2 different yellow city states and also 2 different red city states nearby.

if i wanted the max amount of city state bonuses, should i aim to ally with one yellow/red or try to get them all?

You get everything from all City States.

I rely heavily on City States and Envoys the way I play.

So yes, they are worth sending as many Envoys as possible.

And using the civic bonuses to ramp up envoy production.

I also use the civic that increases gold by 1, for every envoy that you send to a city state.

That is a killer bonus.

great thanks, definately worth keeping all of them then.

So i actually tested this. They DO NOT stack. No point in having more than one city state of each type.

I put one envoy in a city i had 0 in. Also had another city state of the same type, that had max envoys (6+). It had no effect...

(My question had nothing to do with civic bonuses and theres no point keeping a city state just for 3-6+ gold, theres far better civic bonuses mid-end game and you would get far more gold from capturing the city and building a commerce district/bank etc.)

The first envoy gives the bonus to your capital only.

3 and 6 envoys give bonuses to all districts of the appropriate type in your cities (with production and military CS only giving a bonus when the city in question is producing buildings etc or units, respectively.

Having multiple has stacked when I've done it.

Same here - all city states bonuses stacks. It's just that the first one is for capital city only, and 3 and 6 requires the district related to it to be in the cities for the bonus to apply

CONFIRMED THEY DO STACK
Multiple city states of the same type bonus (eg: building production)

Tested as follows:
Hong Kong, Buenos Aires, Toronto: bonus +2 production for industrial zones (for 3, 6 envoy) when building wonders, buildings, districts.

Checked production on two cities (one building a wonder, another a district). The numbers I give are the production totals thus far.

With Toronto (6 envoy), Hong Kong (1 envoy), Beunos Aires (1 envoy):
377 --- next turn ---> 487
603 --- next turn ---> 686

With Toronto (6 envoy), Hong Kong (3 envoy), Beunos Aires (3 envoy):
377 --- next turn ---> 493
603 --- next turn ---> 690

Difference showing stacked City State bonus
District: 493 - 487 = 6 increase (2 x city state bonus plus civic bonus)
Wonder: 690 - 686 = 4 increase (2 x city state bonus)

There are some other multipliers and such involved but with nothing else different except sending 2 envoys to Hong Kong and Buenos Aires, the extra production can be seen.
My quresiotn on this issue is; if I have two city states that have the same bonus effect; and each of those city states have 3 envoys; do BOTH of the city states stack or do I only get one of the bonuses?
So far it looks like only one of them give me the bonus. I will test more in my next game but really wanted to get the communities view on this.
