Introduction to the Overflow Hammer Mechanism in Civilization 6 What is the Overflow Hammer?

What is the overflow hammer in Civilization 6? Some novice players may not know much about this mechanism. Let’s take a look at the introduction of the overflow hammer mechanism in Civilization 6.

Introduction to the overflow hammer mechanism in Civilization 6

In "Civilization 6", the use of the overflow hammer is a very important step, especially in the early stages. If used properly, it will greatly speed up civilization. process.

The overflow hammer is the remaining productivity after production is completed. For example, Xi'an City provides 20 productivity points each round, builds a project with 90 productivity, and the project is completed in the fifth round, but only 10 points of the 20 productivity points are consumed in this round, then the remaining 10 points are the overflow hammer. (This kind of overflow also exists in technological and cultural values)

The overflow hammer will be used in the next round. For example, Xi'an City has 10 points of overflow hammer in this round, then these 10 points of overflow hammer will be used in the next round. for production. However, it should be noted that the overflow hammer can only be used for production in the next round and cannot be used for subsequent production. For example, the city of Xi'an obtains 160 productivity through builders cutting down trees, and has 100 overflow hammer points after the construction is completed. If only one 50-point productivity item is produced in the next round, the unused 50 productivity will be wasted and cannot be used. production in the next round, so you need to pay attention to this when using the Overflow Hammer. (The same is true for the value of science and technology and culture)

The general function of the overflow hammer is to speed up production, such as cutting down trees to speed up production. In the early days, because there were policy cards to add productivity buffs, the overflow hammer was used to speed up production (for example, the Norwegian 100% Ancient Navy card). However, in the current version, this bug has been removed, so when using the productivity-increasing card, you need to cut down the tree as soon as possible, otherwise you will lose productivity.

(For example, if an immigrant has 50 productivity left after completing production and has a 50% acceleration card, and he gets 60 productivity by cutting down trees, he can only get 10 overflow hammers instead of 25 overflow hammers. However, if the immigrant has 75 productivity left, he will directly Complete production)

So the method of chopping sticks and overflowing hammers will not work now
