Amanitore (Civ6)

Amanitore (? – c. 20 CE), was a kandake of the Kingdom of Kush, who ruled alongside king Natakamani. She is considered one of the last great Kushite builders, her reign overseeing extensive construction and restoration projects of temples, pyramids and reservoirs throughout her kingdom. She leads the Nubians in Civilization VI.
Nubia is the Land of the Bow, and their civ's archers are second to none. Amanitore led the historical Nubians on their greatest building spree; she does the same here with her fascination with city planning and construction.
== Intro ==
 Amanitore, watchful Queen of Nubia, the empire you command shall claim the horizon as its border. Don't fear those who covet your abundant gold, for your archers can part their hair at five hundred paces. Your cities shall know prosperity and piety, wise queen, for the Land of the Bow honors its past as surely as it builds its own future.
== In-Game ==
Amanitore's unique agenda is City Planner. She always tries to have the greatest possible number of districts in her cities and likes civilizations that do the same.
Amanitore's leader ability is Kandake of Meroë. It provides her cities with 20% bonus toward districts, or 40% if they have Nubian Pyramids adjacent to their City Centers.
== Detailed Approach ==
Nubia will want to scout aggressively for desert tiles while rushing toward Masonry. With that technology in hand, they can place down their cities, always striving for a cluster of their pyramids in the center. Districts placed next to these pyramids will provide amplified yields, powering the civ's development. Finding mines is also a key priority: historically all the mineral riches enjoyed by Egypt came from Nubia and this civilization can get rich from minerals as well. And if they need to defend their cities, they have the world's best ranged units who should easily be up to the task.
== Lines ==
Amanitore is voiced by Fatma Abd Elsalam. She speaks a Nubian language.
