  2. Extract the contents of the .zip file into your Civ 6 Mods folder:
    Where is the Civ 6 save folder?
    Mods is next to the save folder.

  3. Restart Civilization VI.

  4. Go to Additional Content → Mods, and disable the newly installed BBG to avoid conflicts with live multiplayer games or other setups.

  5. Load your save game and continue playing your turn.

Bonus: BBG Balance Reference

If you’re using BBG, this is an essential tool:

BBG Leader & Balance Info
Created by @Calcifer, this interactive tool shows balance differences across BBG versions. It’s a must-have reference for players using BBG or just curious about changes over time.

  • You can select any version from 5.6 onward to see how balance has evolved.

  • It’s also useful for non-BBG games — just choose “Base Game” from the dropdown.
