- In this game of Civ 6, we’ll be playing as Curtin’s Australia as we take on a difficult challenge in Civilization Six.
Welcome to Sid Meier difficulty, a mode 5 (yes, FIVE) levels harder than regular deity difficulty. This gamemode is described as impossible, insane, brutal, difficult… But today we’ll be taking it on.
We’ll need to optimise our play here. Only the best Civ 6 players in the world can beat this mode!!!

“Australia.. in Europe? What is this.. Eurovision?” ~Ursa Ryan 😅😂😅😂
Still can't believe we haven't seen Kylie or Jason sent across yet XD
I did not expect that lol
HUZZAH URSA'S BACK AGAIN
Tell a friend!!!
Guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back...
Hi ursa, just wanted to share that today I finally got my first win on level 10!!! (babylon, science vic, large map, 12 players, Pangaea, barb and monopolies mod)
That's awesome!!! Keep at it, they'll come easier and easier!!
nice
🎉Huzza!🎉
Great Job! 🎉 Much better than me. (I dare not play past prince)
I love that you started on 'fresh water' at Lake Torrens. Lake Torrens is one of those outback 'lakes' that 95% of the time has no water in it.
Just think rainy thoughts
Thee shalt be crowneth to forever yield the name of...
...Ursa Ryan, *the Adapable.* ;)
So flexible
Did anyone else see Soger's sub 200 science victory? With Mansa Musa on difficulty 13.
Soger is too good
No! I'll have to check it out
I sat through and watched all 6 hours of it.
@@UrsaRyan You're gonna like Soger.
@@sogergaming Come to think of it, I think you like Soger as well.
As someone who also has thousands of hours in this game, I agree with your assessment of your skill level. The few games on the modded difficulties I've played have been part opposites of what you've shown us!
Why thank you!!
New Ursa upload. Les go.
Huzzah!
*Oh, this is awesome!!!! I;d much rather see you struggle and win like 1 out of 20 games than win every time! This is much more entertaining! please play SId Mier EVERY GAME! can;t wait for the next episode now! Not been this hyped for your videos for a while! Cheers Ursy, I mean that in a non negative way lol* สันกำแพง
Haha - we'll be back playing more but perhaps not every time XD
"Is it the salty tears of my expected future pain?" You're such a mood. Do you perhaps cry a lot but you are so productive (it's an art)?
ursa playing on even harder difficulty.... instant like
Welcome back with a new challenge …. Looks exciting! 👍👍
happy you're back! i recently got a friend onto civ and sent him all your videos to get him used to the game lol we're playing together and it's so much fun
Very pleased to see you pulling more people into the civ sphere!
Quite a way to come back to the usual videos, huzzah!
Huzzah!
Well, this looks tantalizing and yet terrifying! We shall see what unfolds.
Huzzah! Welcome back Ursa, hope life is getting a bit more stable!
Huzzah!
Good luck on the move!
The shoutout is getting LONG long, congrats Ursa you deserve it!
Huzzah! Hope you had an awesome time with your new dog!
The Civ expert is back!!
Really didn't want this one to end. Time to go to bed so I can get to tomorrow faster and see what happens next!
as someone who still struggles with normal deity this just looks insane and terrifying. Can't wait to see how this works out.
Wow!!! I am just mastering prince and about to move up 1 more level. Of course, I have a Fallout 4 and the Original Baldur's Gates series addictions that slow me down. Awesome, totally enjoy your fun!
Keep at it! The trick is to keep trying different civs and wins - variety = learning the ropes faster!
I need to try this!
YAAAAY It's me! Super excited to see the Darklord city! :D
A pleasure to have you here!
I've been playing on Transcendent difficulty myself, and find the AI to generally be much more competent than before in it's decision making. Good fun!
that's very hard, well done!!
I think this will be the first save file I actually use from discord😅. Being freesome, lots of giga campuses, lots of pastures, 3 cs, and personally, I love Australia.
Huzzah!
Never thought a Civ vid would make it hard to breathe. This is insane.
Leaving this comment before the game starts and before I watch how it all plays out. I get challenging yourself, however I also feel there is such a thing as making something difficult enough that it removes the fun from it.
Also, I've suggested this before but never got to see you do it. I think you should make a series where you do the opposite and play on the easiest difficulty. Showcase the difference. I get its probably be a quick series, but it'd be good to get a real comparison.
Ursa, I'm not gonna lie: this one is testing my faith a bit. I'm commenting before turn 1, and I have my doubts, but I must be strong. Go get 'em!
I'll do you proud!!
Huzzah!! The chosen one hath returned!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Huzzah!
This start has given you a very strong fighting chance.
I don't think the next game you play will start so peacefully (maybe impossible if you have Gaul as a neighbour)
pretty cool vid so far
*completely surrounded by barbarian horse units*.....I need a monument 🤔
me, a nood: struggling on Emperor
CZcamsrs: beating double deity
You are a mad man, Ursa. 😂 Sid Meier difficulty!
When the world needed him the most he returned🎉🎉🎉🎉
Huzzah!
Woohoo back on schedule!
glad to see you back, would hate to have all this vacation time and nothing to watch
Ursa, your pain is entertaining. Thanks
Meanwhile, I'm still getting my ass handed to me in Immortal 🤣
keep at it!!
£630 - Some say Sid Meier learned to program at the University of Sankore. Others say it was the University of Michigan.
I should have known!
1:55 ish talking about making you sit up at 3am.. as I'm watching this, sitting up at 3am
For the early culture I really like this pantheon :)
He returns. HUZZAH!!!!!!!
Huzzah!
Hey Ursa! I'd love to see you try out the techniques/approach to the game Herson describes in his channel! District discounting, delaying science so districts are cheaper, commercial hubs almost always above other districts, etc. Maybe we can see some insane turn 150 science victories that way!
Good luck with your move,
Cheers
Shady is back!
Huzzah!!! almost 56k
Huzzah!
Hey Ursa. You are truly one of the best Civ players I have seen on CZcams.
And I really look at a lot of them.
I've only played a few games on Deity. And I was running on my gums. (that's what we say here in Germany).
And now you're rocking on the "Sid Meier" difficulty level...
Holy f*cking cow.
Please keep it up.
Best regards from Berlin.
Thank you! It's been a fun learning curve for me!!
What a great challenge I must say! I did try Sid meier difficulty myself as a babylon and oh boy what a game it was. Had to pay 250 gold per turn to force peace but managed to win on pangea on online speed like 1-2 turns ahead of the AI. I'm really curious about how you shall manage it, wish you good luck!
Finally a challenge
I sat up at 3am not because of the civ quake but instead a Charlie Horse in my calf
Love those Australia campuses
Maybe that barb camp has 200% production as well… holy smokes that’s scary.
YAY!!! Early bears assemble!
Huzzah!
Civ is a lifelong endeavor
OMG that iron under the campus...when video games become real-life drama...
Yehaw 🤠
Huzzah!
HUZZAH!
Only at 4:00, but already so much HYPE !!
Huzzah!
HE'S BACK!
back again
That menacing 13 needs a triskaidekaphobia trigger warning 😅😭
It's scary looking!!
Huzzah! I am very much in awe of how skilled you are, but i still wish you luck so that this particular adventure would be fruitful and fun!
I also though that AI at received bonuses to food? Cause when you take their cities they suddenly start starving and need to work different tiles
I still think they must do... though it's very right that I might just be wrong on that!
@@UrsaRyan its just that in the spreadsheet for the mod tha showed the bonuses the AI gets in each level of difficulty i didn't see anything about food, though i could have missed it
So far, what I'm getting from this is that, while other civs on this difficulty are completely insane, the fact that city states also get the same starting military puts barbarians on easy mode.
That's a decent trade off.
Certainly does till the ai conscripts one against you!!
Knowing your skills, you will probably still beat this at Sid Meier difficulty. If you want even more of a challenge, the Deity ++ mod also allows you to tweak the AI late game so that they receive no starting bonuses (extra settlers, warriors etc.), but scale MUCH better into the late game. I've found that this tweak makes the game at least 2 levels harder than otherwise. Good luck!
And hey, harder challenges mean more entertaining content, no? :D
Hmm - i'm not sure about 2 levels harder as it makes the early game a lot easier - I've always found it a bit balanced! I switch between the two modes to be fair!!
Hope the move went well! I just moved into a new house too!
It's a busy time isnt it!!
Lake Torrens always makes me think of Jack Torrance.
Damn it really is 3 am :')
I didn't know there were others that were woken up at 0300. I thought it was just me 👀
fun fact: in civ 3, sid is actually the hardest difficulty, being harder than diety
This is my first day watching
I would love to see a republic only run where all of your governments are the election type, so that means in order (classical republic, merchant republic, democracy, digital democracy) and bonus points for having all legacy policy cards in after getting them for example when going from classical republic to merchant you muat immediately plug in the republican legacy card and it remains there for the rest of the game
I’m interested if Caesar retains his gold from barb camps buff at higher levels, could make him even more glorious
i like you so much because i am the same, anything i pick up i'm talented at, yet i never am able to go past that
Ironically the city state thing made me understand the reason Raven King is so good is because it scales really well with difficulty
I can't wait to give them a try!!
Love the new levels. Means i can play with secret societies and monopolies and it doesn't get too easy that it's boring
Issue is if the ai gets the same bonuses...!
Ursa’s back, back again… Sometimes I wonder what the old Ursa would say, if he could see the way civ is today :)
lol, in previous version, deity only had 1 additional settler, i've played this game so much and yet i never realize they had 2 additional settler in the civ 6 one
Thanks!
Glad to see Ursa finally embraces CZcams thank you feature, after 2 years of the feature launch. lol
Hey @liuyusi125 , thanks so much for this, really appreciate it!!! Hope you're enjoying the series = )
Huzzah! Oh joy!
Huzzah!
Can we get another "say yes to everything" game?? That was quite entertaining
Babylon on this mod would probably be in space by the end of the Classical era
I have no idea how they make the ai better without first addressing its complete lack of being able to manage the 1 tile 1 unit system making it unable to war, I have literally never seen an ai wipe on another ai in my Deity games, except when Kupe has 1 city 10 tiles from someone’s cap
Have you played multiplayer at all? I think it might take some adjusting but you could be pretty good
i wish I had time for MP!!
early bears! huzzah!!
Huzzah!
Let’s go!!!!
Will you ever try Multiplayer games Ursa? It would probably be entertaining, although I suspect even you would lose against the pros.
Sid difficulty is no joke. It makes deity++ feel like child’s play. 😂
It was a big step up!!
I'll admit that I haven't been watching Ursa's videos for a while now, mostly because I've been reading through Out of Cruel Space on the HFY subreddit & I'm on Part 971 of 999 (this is the first "phase" of the story, I started reading when the second phase of the story came out) so I've been distracted reading instead. However, I'll be sure to watch the backlog of the games, probably while playing some good ol' Civ 5 myself.
Huzzah!
You were reading what?
HUUUZZZZAAAAAHHHHHH! Welcome early bears, late bears, and silly geese.
Like, sub, and smoke em if you got em!
Huzzah!
Fuzzle, you Munster!
Not to be trusted!!
I NEED to know how stupid Babylon is on this difficulty. If Hammurabi isn't getting a science victory by turn 100 (standard speed) then I don't think we've gone far enough into this nightmare.
With 200% production and gold, he will be getting every eureka so quickly
Nice.
Huzzah!! 🐻
Huzzah!
Hey Ursa! Have you heard of district discounting? If yes, do you use/consider it in your games?
Not meaning locking disctrict prod. cost
I tend to play too fluidly to use them! efficiency vs being able to adapt to what the ai is throwing out
I’ve never heard a city referred to as Chopville. It’s very accurate
Chopville is a state of mind as well as a place!
I am watching this video at 3 am
I was hoping Ursa would play this mod - I had Theodora getting 1000 military strength on turn 38
thoughts and prayers!!! i tried a handful of times and got absolutely steam rolled before the end of the classical era every time 😢
I'm sure my day will come!
Literally 3 am at night while I’m watching this, I had to check the upload date to make sure it wasn’t like just posted😭. Feel a little called out
I've been getting into civ 6 multiplayer meta from Herson's videos. I was wondering why wouldn't the same idea of rushing feudalism apply even in singleplayer? Thanks!
Rushing feudalism is a tactic in single player as old as time!! Yes, do it = )
