Your Favorite Secret Society?

[wcbarney]

I like the Voidsingers best. I really can't live without the "Old God Obelisk," and I find it really useful to park Cultists on all the spaceports around the world.

My favorite is Hermetic order...when it works.

Sometimes if I'm going for a science victory I'll go with the Hermetic order.

voidsinger with holy sites rome is probably the most fun I had with the mod.

for non civ specific, while they are generally not the best picks, either the vampires or the ley lines depending on game plan because stacked tiles with crazy yields are fun.

I can't tell you. It wouldn't be secret if I did.

[Verienkeli]

Owls of Mierva. I like the extra policy slots. I'd probably like the Hermetic Society more if the game would stop spawning me with zero nearby ley lines, but the game loves to do that to me.

I really like the Sanguine Pact because even if you're playing peacefully those castle yields can be insane if you get a passable natural wonder like the pantanal and plop some preserves next to it.

I'm big on voidsingers myself. To be honest they seem broken when going for a culture win.

I don't understand why you say Voidsingers are broken when going for a culture win. With the Voidsingers you get Old God Obelisks which give you an extra slot for nearly every type of Great Works. Also it makes it easier to move Great Works around.

'Broken' can have two meanings in this context. The writer clearly meant broken as in too good, for all the reasons you stated.

Voidsinger and Miverna absolutely clears the other 2

Playing an absolutely high faith generation civ like peter?
Go for voidsinger, in all my deity games with voidsinger I get boosted to crazy science and culture without having to build crazy campus/theatre squares. 20% of faith to free science and culture is INSANE

Playing a civ where u can get high commercial hub adjacency, go miverna
I ♥♥♥♥ you not i had deity games with mali where im on 600 culture vs deitys 150 culture, and i didnt even have a single theatre square

Both of these secret societies benefit so much for abusing multiplication of faith/gold adjacencies

Usually Voidsingers, then Owls of Minerva, then the vampires, and then one with the ley lines. I play each depending on what leader I'm playing and the situation at the time.

What? Nobody has a favorite Secret Society? Nobody else plays with the Secret Societies mode?

Tried it once or twice. For the achievements. Very unbalanced. Not fun at all. Never play with it since. Owls of Minerva seems clearly OP.

I also hate how they automatically know which "secret" society you belong to, "Oh you are part of this? We hate you now" Like b*tch how did you even know with no spies on turn 20?

Haven't played Civ6 for a few months, but when I last played I always used Secret Societies. The Societies just add another dimension, and you are missing out if you don't use one of them or the other.

Do secret societies make the game easier or harder?

I think they make the game easier, but not too significantly. More importantly they add another fun aspect to the game.

I love the Vampire faction due to crazy stuff you can do with their castles. :)
