I know that there have been polls like this before, but there have been a lot of new people here lately and I am curious to find out which Civ they prefer the most. Personally, I always use the Germans. I like their traits, I love the Panzer, and Bismarck is the best leaderhad IMO.

I've been using the egyptians recently, although their UU isn't worth a damn and comes too early for my taste.Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust! -
I love the Iriquois.
I love the MW. helps quick, early warfare. strong for a long time.
I love their characteristics. Religious- use as a crutch, don't know how I would live without it now. Expansionist-same, I play 256x maps, and this trait rules. Build a couple of scouts, send them out on auto, soon you will have all of the ancient techs and tons of gold and maybe even a free settler. You can meet your rivals quickly and plan out who to destroy with your MW's first. Granted, Expansionist loses its advantage 25% into the game, but that first quarter is the key to victory.
I find myself addicted to these abilities and have a hard time switching. I want a guarenteed positive (or null) result from a hut. I don't want to worry about anarchy.Comment

I voted for the Chinese, but it was just a guess as I had used them for 3-4 games in a row recently. I jump around trying different things, so I do not have a favorite. I tend to avoid any with Expansion. Prefer Mil and Ind. Easiest win was with Romans, cranked out legions and snuffed all nearby civs very early (horses were scarces.Comment

I choose a different civ everytime. But i like the industrious, religious and militaristic traits more than the others.Try my Lord of the Rings MAP out: Lands of Middle Earth v2 NEWS: Now It's a flat map, optimized for Conquests

The Persians. Immortals are great, and so are industrious workers and cheap libraries. Being half-Persian may influence that a bit.
Since when does the national security of the United States depend on the opinions of the heads of state of Angola, Bulgaria, Cameroon, Chile, and Guinea?Comment

Another poll that doesn't work...
I mostly play as the Germans. Got to love those Panzers."Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys."

Persians. An attack of 4 is insane in the whole first first and half ages and this will win the continent for you, and a defense 2 is still the best you can get for quite a long time (except Romans and Greeks). Speed, well, I guess you can't have everything.

Play as the Greeks here... I *love* the combo of scientific and commercial. The hoplite unit is really nothing more than a nice bonus.Long-time poster on Apolyton and WePlayCiv

I used to play Egyptians all the time, but now I'm starting to use the Romans more often. Its just so difficult to contend with their legions.
After the Romans I would say the Germans. Being able to build archers and spearmen right away really has its advantages, and the Panzer will win the game easily."Corporation, n, An ingenious device for obtaining individual profit without individual responsibility." -- Ambrose Bierce
