In Civilization VII, leader selection is as crucial as gameplay technique and desired victory conditions. A military leader excels at providing manpower and firepower for world domination, while an economic-focused leader is better suited for a gold-based strategy. However, leadership choices can significantly impact gameplay style and win condition feasibility. Players must weigh the importance of each aspect and adapt their approach accordingly. Moreover, the ethics of prioritizing military aggression over other win conditions raises concerns about the game's overall strategy and moral implications, highlighting the complexity of leadership selection in a game designed to facilitate strategic decision-making.
