Zulu, a new force in Civilization 6, announced that African chiefs led the rise of tribes.

 

Characteristic unit-Bantu samurai regiment

Wandering stars

  Zulu Warrior Regiment is a formidable force. Ambitious Shaka raised their fighting capacity to a new height with the help of the Ikova spear (a short and sharp spear with a wider blade than the throwing spear) and the light shield (a large oval shield covered with cowhide). Zulu warriors can perform shield wall tactics, which can not only defend against throwing stones and flying arrows, but also hide their true strength. When attacking, the "horns" are discharged-the recruits are responsible for containing the enemy’s two wings to encircle them (horns), while the more experienced main force is responsible for destroying the contained enemy (oxen).

  Shaka’s Bantu warrior training system is quite cruel. However, the harsh conditions also make the well-trained soldiers closely United and easily arrange a complicated battle. This unit replaces the spearmen and has a higher attack bonus; The cost is lower than that of other combat units in the same generation, and the maintenance cost is lower and the experience value is gained faster.

Characteristic area-Kanda, Iraq

Wandering stars

  Kanda (also known as "corral" or "Umz") is a self-sufficient Zulu settlement, which can defend against foreign enemies. It has a double wooden fence, the inner layer keeps livestock and the outer layer isolates intruders. For practical and strategic reasons, Kanda is usually located on the hillside: it can be used for natural cleaning by flowing rainwater, and it can also be used for commanding and defending foreign enemies. In Shaka’s military system, the Legion is stationed in Icandane for daily training and life.

  When Zulu marched eastward and westward for inclusion in the surrounding tribes, more Iraqi Kanda would appear like mushrooms after rain. This Zulu characteristic area can provide more housing instead of camp. After meeting the municipal or scientific and technological preconditions, legions and armies can be directly produced to speed up their creation.

Leader’s Characteristic Ability —— Ibuto

Wandering stars

  Shaka became the leader of a Bantu army at the age of 23. His outstanding military exploits made him become one of the most effective commanders under Chief Dingiswayo. Shaka was good at training troops and reorganizing equipment, and replaced the low-lethal javelin with a wide-edged Ikewa spear and a large cowhide shield. Therefore, in the game, Shaka can form a legion (which needs "mercenary" municipal government) and an army (which needs "nationalist" municipal government) earlier. In addition, Ibuto can also provide additional basic combat power for the legion and the army.

The ability of civilization characteristics-tribal praise

  After the tribe is conquered, it will be incorporated into the Zulu kingdom, and its young and middle-aged people will be incorporated into Ibuto and continue to fight with the Zulu army. Shaka waved the baton of the Bantu Warriors with one hand, and offered a diplomatic offensive with the other hand-a "tribal tribute" in the game. After conquering the city, you can gain loyalty bonus by stationing troops here. After unlocking the corresponding municipal government, the units that conquer the city will be upgraded to legions or armies.

  Chaka Zulu is one of the nine leaders in Civilization 6: Rise and Fall, which will be released on February 8, 2018.
