I believe many of you are quite interested in the game "Empire: Scepter and Civilizations". In the game, the British civilization is very strong. So, how can new players play the British civilization well? Today, I will bring you a guide on the British civilization in Empire: Scepter and Civilizations, hoping to help those in need. Let's get straight to it.

In "Empire: Scepter and Civilizations", the British civilization has its unique charm and features. Overall, the gameplay of the British civilization leans more towards "early development, late-game fighting", which is very suitable for developmental players. Try using the British civilization to develop your empire and expand your territory. Next, I will introduce the characteristics of the British civilization one by one.

Firstly, let's talk about the governance of the British civilization. Compared to other civilizations' governance, which only allows for simple city decisions, the governance effect of the British civilization is: After use, immediately gain 10 political orders. Although 10 political orders may seem insignificant, every decision we make and every building we construct will give us 10 political orders. These small amounts add up over time, especially since our British civilization mainly focuses on the late game. As our cities expand and resources increase, these political orders can become a formidable force, allowing us to quickly build city after city, creating a snowball effect. This effect is very important for our British civilization.

Next, we have the "Spike Barricade", a special defensive structure for the British civilization. Its effect is: "Allows the construction of Spike Barricades, enemy players must first fight with the corresponding level plot garrison." Each barricade has strong HP, although not much, but as a developmental civilization, we definitely won't have time to build an army early on. This is where the advantage of the Spike Barricade comes in: Building a large number of barricades around the city can effectively delay the enemy's attack, allowing us to respond in time. Moreover, the materials required for the Spike Barricade are minimal, only needing wood, and it's a technology given at the start of the game. In the early stages when everyone's army attacks aren't so strong, the barricades can become a "Wall of Sighs" for our enemies.

Of course, passive defense alone is not enough when facing civilizations like Persia that excel in early game sieges. The repair feature of the British civilization perfectly solves this, with its effect being: "Use after clicking on a friendly main city/large warship, dispatch a unit to the center position for repair, immediately restore the target city's durability, then restore durability every minute, lasting for 5 minutes (up to 5 units can repair simultaneously)." The repair feature is similar to the engineer in "Red Alert"; when our city is low on health, we only need to dispatch a unit to fully restore the city's health. By extension, we can create a situation where we occupy a key pass, the enemy continuously attacks, and we dispatch five repair units to constantly repair the city, achieving a nearly unbreakable effect. When facing powerful siege civilizations in the early to mid-game, repair becomes the most crucial part of our defense.

Of course, after surviving the early to mid-game, the British civilization's siege capabilities—such as increasing the hero's siege value by 50 points during sieges, reducing resource consumption for inner city construction and technology research by 3%, reducing the time needed for personal building construction by 6%, increasing experience and merit from battles by 2%, and increasing building durability by 10%—will all become powerful tools for us to strike our enemies.

Therefore, the gameplay strategy for the British civilization is clear: In the early to mid-game, build a large number of Spike Barricades and focus on development. Use our construction abilities to rapidly build cities, and before the enemy can react, quickly occupy key passes to form an absolute defensive circle. In the late game, rely on our high-tech and high productivity to mass-produce troops, engage in multi-front battles, and create a snowball effect. This strategy is very straightforward and brutal; as long as we stay put, we can automatically win the game. Of course, the biggest challenge is surviving the early to mid-game. I suggest players ally with civilizations that are strong in the early to mid-game or try to stay away from other civilizations, settling in a remote area. Once our technology is up, everything will fall into place.

Above is the introduction and gameplay guide for the British civilization in Empire: Scepter and Civilizations. I hope it has helped those in need. For those who love strategy, go ahead and give it a try!
