There is a poll attached at the top, you can choose 2 options.

in 1.18 I play only Epic. With added turns - best suit for UHV and having fun. Marathon now a quite long game, and you don't need it, coz and UHV and Domination and others types of Victory can be archived on Epic. I don't remember when i played Normal game speed, probably some few first game, then i meat with DoC (several years ago, i think)
You need Marathon (imo) only for specific goals/game type. Like made Mongols Empire from sea to sea in historical time

If I’m going tryhard mode for UHVs, normal speed. Otherwise it depends on the civ. Short UHVs like Portugal, I’ll do marathon. Long games like Japan, I’ll do epic.
 
I always go with Regent/Normal on 1.18. I figure since the new version's been released earlier specifically for us to playtest it, it makes sense to playtest on the settings Leoreth wants to balance around.
 
Normal speed for me. I used to play on Marathon, and enjoy the amount of turns and time that I had to appreciate each era. But now I’ve come to appreciate turns as something of a valuable commodity, as something to not squander. Now, with less turns to play through, I’m challenged to develop a play style that is more efficient and aggressive, and to make the most out of every turn.

(Not to mention that Normal is what the mod is balanced around, and it’s also nice to be able to play through many civilizations in a hour or two.)
 
Normal or Marathon. I either want a quick, more balanced game, or one that lasts as long as possible.
 
I like Marathon in ME and ME :), all those crusades and etc, but after 1920AD i began bored from so many turns))
UPD. And i don't like Normal coz you need plan careful every turn and dint make a single mistake. Even one lost battle can wreak whole game. So, instead having fun you constantly solving puzzle and abuse save/load

Normal or Marathon. I either want a quick, more balanced game, or one that lasts as long as possible.
All night long! all night!
