I like Chinese because of those immediately built caravans, merchants and citizens. (got RoN for present[dance] )

I chose Rome. Perhaps I'm just a little biased, but they've always been my favorite civ, on all occasions. Anyways, I do tend to lean towards imperialism in RoN, so the cheaper forts/towers really helps me. And the free units.

Turks because of the faster assimilation rate, janisseries, and cannons. You can take out cities in the midgame in a jiffy.

Second would be the Mongols, I just love their calvary.

Egypt.. I love building wonders. And the 7 farm per city is quite neat.

Second is British. Mostly due to the increased commerce cap. (I rarely play past the enlightment age)

Russians. Double attrition damage AND a lot of cool UUs! :yeah:

But I can't forget to honorably mention the Egyptians. 7 farms and 2 wonders. I am a wonder fanatic, so the Egyptians are definently one of my favorite civs.

I use the Germans all the time because of their economic bonuses.

I have only played as the Incas, Nubians, British, Romans and Egyptians so far. Of those my favourite is the Egyptians - the farms generating wealth as well as food is handy but the cheaper wonder costs and the ability to build two per city is a real killer.Enabling me to beat the comp. on tougher standard to a wonder victory. I'm still getting my ass handed to me with the other civs at that level - so its the Egyptians for me.

My favorite is France. The healing supply wagons are really useful and so is the free lumber mill. However, they are lacking a bit in UUs. My 2nd favorite is the Russians, followed by the Germans in 3rd.
