I considered Normal to be too quick, so I tried Epic. That's all I played until last night when I accidentally selected Marathon and then decided "What the heck". Turns out, I like Marathon best, so far at least. The game seems more forgiving. You have more time to change your mind, change your direction. On the other hand, if you run out of troops in the middle of a war ... you will not be building any quick armies to make up the difference. Fortunately, no wars yet, but we will see ...
 
Some people but the book, some buy Cliff Notes, thankfully they have made a game that makes us all happy.
 
Settle in to the most comfy chair available, get a large drink handy. then dial in FexFx Marathon at 1200 turns. Bty at 6 hrs per night plan to spend a week with wrinkled brow.
 
I have played just on normal. Quick would seem to "Arcadish" for me... I think I might try Epic on a big map with a lot of civ's next just to see how I like it.
