    I had to vote for your first option. I like to start off easy and as I get better at the game I increase the level of difficulty.
    However, it is difficult to believe that 2 times 2 does not equal 4; does that make it true? On the other hand, is it really so difficult simply to accept everything that one has been brought up on and that has gradually struck deep roots – what is considered truth in the circle of moreover, really comforts and elevates man? Is that more difficult than to strike new paths, fighting the habitual, experiencing the insecurity of independence and the frequent wavering of one’s feelings and even one’s conscience, proceeding often without any consolation, but ever with the eternal goal of the true, the beautiful, and the good? - F.N.

      I have to say that I will probably start with King or Prince, just because King is what I play in Civ II.

        I'll start on the first or the second difficulty, to understand the game without much effort. And then i'll jump to my usual king level.

          I'll start out easy and gradually make my way up the ladder. I find it most unwise to jump up too far right away as Civ 3 is a completely new game and the strategy appears to be quite different.

            Yeah, thats what I'm planning to do too. Start off on the easy levels, so I can concentrate on the subtlties, of the new game, and coming to grips with them first...instead of mere survival.

                Hopefully they have improved the AI so that the middle difficulty levels are challenging and the hard ones extremly hard. Had to go for middle levels but hopefully I wont be able to handle it right away

                  I'll start off easy probably Prince or King then after the first game probably play the second hardest if the first game wasn't too hard.

                    i'll play the easiest until i understand the whole culture / trade / resource system.

                    then i'll hop on the diety (or whatever they want to call it now) train.

                      In ctp I made the mistake to choose for the easiest level.

                      I was bored to death....

                      So now I start in the middle, to have a little competition!

                      If it really is too difficult I can always go to a lower level,
                      but I think that won't happen!

                        From what I understand, the new game will have Deity+ levels, so I don't think I'll choose the toughest until I get a better idea of what they are. Probably the level that corresponds to "King".
