Hammers are symbols used on game maps to represent the number of accumulated facilities that a given civilised hex has constructed and presently maintains. The number of hammers possessed by a hex is determined by the hex type, which in turn is a product of infrastructure. Hex types range from 1 to 8, with a "1" indicating a highly civilised hex and an "8" indicating uncivilised wilderness. Thus, type-1 and type-2 hexes possess many hammers, while type-7 and type-8 hexes may have none at all.

6-mile map hexes also possess two designations: arable and non-arable. With very few exceptions, type-1 to type-4 hexes are always designated as arable; type-5 to type-7 hexes may be arable or non-arable; and type-8 hexes are always treated as non-arable, though some may have the potential to be made arable. Since type-8 hexes don't gain hammers under any circumstance, they are not included on the table shown.
