Unit

The Units in Civilization VI use a "1 Unit Per Tile" system, but also adds a combined military system in which a normal arms unit can stack together with a support unit, such as a builder, settler, field medic, battering ram, missionary, siege tower, anti-tank or anti-aircraft unit (as well as others) to then protect the unit which would otherwise be left at the mercy of your foes. Beginning at the Renaissance Era, two of the same units can be combined into a Corps, which is less powerful than two individual units, but more survivable and takes up less space on the map (to reduce overcrowding). Additionally, in the Modern Era, three units can combine to form an Army. The ability to form Corps and Armies are unlocked in the Civics tree rather than the Technology tree.

Unit Info

• Units Earn experience and will receive Promotions when they level up.
• Units can be renamed (after receiving a second promotion), and there is even a random name generator.
• Most infantry units have 4 figures at full strength.
• Non-unique units will have some Civilization-specific details and ethnically appropriate skin color.
• Movement now requires that a unit has the full amount of movement points required to enter a Tile. So for example, if Warrior has a move of 2 but only 1 movement point left in a turn, it can't enter Hills (since Hills require 2 movement points). The change brings about an increase to the impact of Terrain on movement, because you'll now be forced to move first to rough terrain, since you won't be able to ignore rough terrain just by using your last movement point on it.
• Pillaging enemy Tile Improvements will heal units.
• Naval units are built as ranged and melee, and melee vessels can still attack Coastal cities.
• Some units (such as Settlers and Missionaries) become more expensive as you build or buy more of them.
• Support units get their own layer of stacking, while you can't have two support units in the same tile, they can be combined with military units, or civilian units, or trade units, and not interfere with the stacking.
