Explanation: Harriett Tubman was an anti-slavery partisan who led dozens of people out of slavery in the pre-war American South. During the American Civil War, she assisted the (eventually) antislavery Union as a scout and spy, and, posthumously, was granted the rank of Brigadier General by the Maryland National Guard.

And hopefully she'll get recognition in a good Civ game one day

Damn, Civ 7 was no good? I haven't heard anything about it yet.

Yeah, it doesn't even feel like a Civ game.

Now Civ games normally suck on release.

I've been playing multiplayer civ6 without DLC because one of my friends and my dad got it free from epic. It's much worse than Civ 6 with DLC but it's so much better than Civ 7

Yeah Civ has always been a "buy it for cheap when the DLC has dropped" game for me. Vanilla Civ is almost always missing key stuff
