Save Scumming: Allowed! … To an extent! You know what, I might be going back on my thinking here already.

They will then play that mission (selecting the soldiers and load-out as they see fit) and the base section of the game following it, handling any promotions from their mission, research decisions, base build decisions etc, until they pass enough time to prompt the next mission.Īt which point, again, they will save the game and pass it on to the next player - and so on around the group.

If you weren’t around for the Civilisation VI version, this might still be a new concept for you.
