      I can't imagine commercial getting any votes. What am I missing about cheap marketplaces and banks?

        I'm a little surprised at that, too. I especially can't see commercial being better than Scientific...

          Still no clear-cut top three...

            It's the reduction of corruption that make commercial a favorite.

            ACK!
            Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!

              That makes sense... I hardly play as commercial civs. Is the difference really that significant?

                doh! I didn't see the multiple choice. Next time I'll take the time to read the poll title- maybe

                I voted religious. other traits I like are military and industrious.

                  Well, those seem to be the top three. I'm torn between militaristic and scientific (I'm more of a "builder") for my third... religious and industrious are definately my favorites.

                      religious and industrious or scientific, with commerial being next and expansionist and militaristic coming in last.

                        And everybody's first choice of a civ is ... Egyptian. Well, fancy that.
                        Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war .... aw, forget that nonsense. Beer, please.

                          I just don't care much for their UU... and the dry-heave yellow color they always get... (I suppose I could mod that....)

                            My first choice is Japan! or the Celts now...

                            I like Religious and Militaristic best myself... gives a good balance of builder v. warmonger, you never know which path you may need to take (damn that oil is JUST OUT OF MY EMPIRE.... hehe).

                            And I *HATE* 4 turns of anarchy... such a drag

                              I voted for top 3 traits. In following order: Ind, Rel Exp.

                              The bottom traits;mil, com, sci, are nice to have but not in my priority when looking for civ of my choice.

                              I dont think commercial gives cheap marketplace and banks... why would you complain about getting quick improvements that can increase ur treasury anyway? Commercial's main attraction is cutting corruption, which they worked out as desirable trait since 1.29 vanilla civ.
