I regularly switch between Uni, Drones, Gaians. I occasionally play Morgan, Peacekeepers, Cyborgs, Hive. I have had half-tries with Spartans and Pirates. Didn't play the rest.

I have played everyone, but prefer the Hive or Gaians.
The University is overpowered, IMO, and the others are either dull or don't fit my worldview"Perhaps a new spirit is rising among us. If it is, let us trace its movements and pray that our own inner being may be sensitive to its guidance, for we are deeply in need of a new way beyond the darkness that seems so close around us." --MLK Jr.

I play everybody - I try to rotate through them. Right now I'm focusing on SMAX factions since I haven't played with them much (recently bought the expansion, that's why.

I've been playing all of them lately. My favorite is probably Peacekeepers, although lately I'm beginning to enjoy Morgan also.Civ IV is digital crack. If you are a college student in the middle of the semester, don't touch it with a 10-foot pole. I'm serious.

Teach me, oh great one!Arise, for I am but a man.
I fear I may disappoint: I do not play multi, if that is wherein you seek guidance.
In my solo games, I role-play as well as I know how, using what we've been given in each leader's official background and what might be deduced from their quotations. So much of what I do is "coloring outside the lines" of the more "popular" methods and "standard" strategies, which is why I generally comment only on the "nuts and bolts" of the game; mainly alpha(x).txt and faction.txts.
As for the point at hand, two important things about the Believers: Probeand Cash

Like I said above, I play the peaceful factions. The only non-peaceful faction I have played is the hive (although they can be played peacefully). The spartans and believers just aren't me.
But ethically, how are the peacekeepers that different from the University?
