Chandgragupta is one of nine new leaders in the Civilization VI: Rise and Fall expansion, and the video below gives you some insight on what to expect from this new character. Unlike the peaceful Ghandi, India's other leader, Chandgragupta, is a bit more aggressive, thriving on times of war.
Born sometime in the 3rd Century BCE, Chandgragupta was a master strategist, respected diplomat, student and more. During his time, he toppled a corrupt empire, then successfully pushed the boundaries of his kingdom and worked to better the lives of his subjects, which kings are kind of famous for not doing. To cap the whole thing off, he voluntarily walked away from it all. What a guy!
Chandgragupta has the India ability, Dharma, and he can build stepwells to keep his people happy. His unique ability is called Arthashastra, the Indian framework for how to conduct statecraft, in addition to economic policy and military strategy. Declare a War of Territorial Expansion, and you'll gain movement and combat strength bonuses as you expand your empire and smite your enemies, made easier by your badass army of war elephants. Anytime war elephants get involved, I'm game.
Watch the game-play trailer below to learn more about how you will use this new leader to smash everyone into flapjacks with your elephants and keep your people happy.
