Brave New World[]

Strategy[]

In Gods & Kings, the Terracotta Army is a rich source of early Culture Culture; in Brave New World, it is a unique wonder with the powerful effect of instantly creating military units for you. There's a catch, though: the extra units are created for each type of unit you possess, not for each individual unit. If you want to make the most of the Terracotta Army, try to produce as many types of units as you can before completing it. Note, however, that the sudden rush of units may turn against you - there will be a sharp increase in Gold Gold maintenance costs for your army, so be prepared for that!

Typically, the Terracotta Army is a pretty poor wonder in Brave New World. The expensive Production Production cost will only be worth it with a diverse army, and diverse armies are rarely used, whether by warmongers or peaceful players. It's often better to focus on infrastructure.

Civilopedia entry[]

Unearthed by Chinese farmers in 1974, the Terracotta Army of Emperor Qin Shi Huang was assembled to accompany the emperor in his burial tomb. Constructed during the 3rd century BC, workers created thousands of life-sized earthen figures, with each soldier having unique characteristics added during their construction. Positioned in proper military formation along deep pits carved within the tomb, the soldiers of the Terracotta Army are joined by horses, chariots, and cavalry which were also replicated in great detail.
