Hey all, I've been drawing up a list of the revealed civs with the playstyles they seem to inclined towards. So far we've been given a lot of bonuses, but I wanted one quick doc I could look at with the one line synopsis of how the civs are expected to play in-game.
I wanted to run it by you guys and see what you think. It can be hard to tell exactly how these will play out in game, so there's some guesswork involved. Let me know what you think of this list of civs with playstyles. Here's a web version I'll be editing periodically.
