For me it's easily Terra, because I love trying to go wide, & fighting wars over land
& of course the quest for the new world.

Archipelago, as I'm fond of playing as England.
Shuffle!!
I used to play with starting bias off because I thought it made civs too powerful, but then I realized they actually needed the start bias to play properly. I still don't like cooking the map to benefit my own civ though, seems a little like cheating. It is fun though to get a map that favors your civ and not even realize it until astronomy.
