  • Which Civ is your favorite one?

    Well?

    Mine is China since their militaristic and industrious trait fits my style the best.

    I believe this is only the 42nd version of this poll, but what the hell.

    Aztec. The Jaguar warrior will swarm over your civ and consume you. Mwaha. ha.

      I haven't seen any similar polls for several weeks so I decide to give it a try.

      Yeah, Jaguar Warriors are useful, but only if you start next to a bunch of AI civs with no early age UUs. What happens if you end up on an island?

      Besides, I hate the Aztec civ with a passion. Their culture was one of the most evil and repugnant cultures in world history.

        Japan. Similar to China, actually, but I'm one of those who gives the slight edge to Religious over Industrious (by a nose). I like China as well, and have been experimenting with the Aztecs.

        I also like the Egyptians, but I've been seduced by the power of the Dark Side (read: Great Leaders).

        The trick isn't to break some eggs to make an omelette, it's convincing the eggs to break themselves in order to aspire to omelettehood.

            I'm very torn between choosing Japanese or Chinese. Religious is a very good trait, too, but in the end I see that I prefer industrious a little bit more.

            Like you, I'm GL junkie. I have generated 11 GLs so far in my game as Chinese by 1778.

              My favorite traits are Religious (for faster culture growth and anarchy-free change of government) and Industrious (for worker speed), so that would point toward Egypt.

              However, I haven't played more than two full games, from start to finish, with each Civ, so it's really hard to say which I like best.

              What I really like is the challenge of having to shift mental gears when I start a new game playing as a Civ totally different from the previous.

                Greece. The hoplite allows you to expand very far in the ancient ages without worry of someone declraring war on you.

                  The Persians are my favourite for some good reason that I haven't discovered yet. The UU perhaps.
                  al-Apolyton, the most wanted terrorist organisation in the world.
                  Or was it al-Qaeda...?

                    I don't judge civs on how good they are or their UU, I just like them because I like them. The Zulu are my favorite. Here are my top six:

                    1. Zulu
                    2. Iroquois
                    3. Persia
                    4. Babylon
                    5. Germany (I like them quite a bit less than Babylon)
                    6. China (I don't like them nearly as much as Germany)
                    "The first man who, having fenced off a plot of land, thought of saying, 'This is mine' and found people simple enough to believe him was the real founder of civil society. How many crimes, wars, murders, how many miseries and horrors might the human race had been spared by the one who, upon pulling up the stakes or filling in the ditch, had shouted to his fellow men: 'Beware of listening to this imposter; you are lost if you forget the fruits of the earth belong to all and that the earth belongs to no one." - Jean-Jacques Rousseau

                          Egyptian because:
                          a) my most memorable game so far was with the Egyptians
                          b) I'm only managing to win a quarter of the games I've played, but all three times I played Egyptians I won - so those traits must suit my style of play.
