+ and - of the different Civs

[Mandos]

I've been looking for something on this subject for a while--- I'm new to the civilization world, and I was wondering if there was a list somewhere that explained the different Strengths and weaknessess of the civilizations.

the info center on the main page is a good place to start

there really aren't any weaknesses just strengths. each leader lends themselves to a certain type of player (builder, warmonger, diplomat) and what particular type of victory you like to play towards (culture, conquest, space race)
