For whatever reason, personal or gameplay, we all have one civilization we feel particularly attached to.

This is a poll to figure out which Civ, posters like the most

A Tie between Chinese and German. I voted for China.

There is not too much different between the civs. However, I love kicking other civ's asses with my Chinese riders. So I would go for China.

I'll take German Panzers over Chinese Riders anyday!!!

The Poles once tried something like that with horseback riders too!

From an objective point of view, I believe that the Persians are the best civ to play with, here's why:

1) Their special unit the Immortal (4/2/1), is attainable EXTREMELY early in the game, it requires Ironworking, which you can research very quickly. It is the earliest unit in the game to have 4 attack. Iroquois' Mounted Warrior is the most effective, but their civ-specific qualities arent the greatest.

2) Persians are industrious (probably the best quality), and scientific (3rd best in my opinion).

And that's why I believe they are the best civ in the game.
Argue this point if you want.

[yeesh]

Dude. Egyptians. Industrious and religious. Do you realize that with religious a cathedral costs less than a library or a marketplace? Talk about culture... And industrious is tasty for us weirdos who like to irrigate/mine/railroad every single tile.

Nah, Greeks - Commercial + Scientific.
