This unique ability grants Maya yield bonuses to non-capital cities. It also adds a combat bonus to units within six tiles of the capital.

Unique Ability - Mayab
This ability gives the Maya Housing and Gold bonuses from Farms, and grants an Amenity bonus for Luxury resources adjacent to the City Center. Settling adjacent to Coasts or Fresh Water does not provide housing bonuses.

Unique Unit - Hul’che

This unit is a stronger replacement for the Archer and receives bonus combat strength when attacking wounded units.

Unique District - The Observatory

This District replaces the Campus and grants a minor adjacency bonus with Farms and a major adjacency bonus with Plantations.

Rome wasn’t built in a day, nor was Civilization 6, I suppose. The strategic colonize ’em up is going to spend a year rolling out new paid (and some free) updates. Firaxis Games say “we want to bring you more content—more Civilization—but in a way that keeps the game fun.” Apparently that’s coming in the form of the New Frontier Pass, which will get you access to the six DLC packs coming to Civ 6. They’ll be released every other month over the next year, beginning on May 21st.

Gandhi is one of the most unique figure in history. His adherence to non-violence, his establishment of a full-fledged philosophy behind it and, above all, his success>, are practically without precedent. Kings, empires and leaders can often blur into each other. The locations change, the dates are different and the numbers differ, but the essence remains the same. Gandhi was something completely different, and yet games try to represent him with the same pieces they use for everyone else – and so they always make him something far less than he was.
