Based on the following benchmark results of Civ 6 on various mobile GPUs, if you want average 30 FPS @ 1080p resolution using medium settings, I would say you need a GTX 950m. The GTX 950m gets 46 FPS at 1366 x 768 using medium settings and 26 FPS at 1080p with high settings.

Integrated graphics performs very poorly. The A10-8700P has a Radeon R6 (Carrizo) iGPU. It is not on the list, but overall it is about equal to an Intel HD 620.

Both will do but it won't be a great experience. You might need to drop the resolution a bit to keep your 30 fps.
