Favourite Civilization?

[GeneralZed]

I dont get it: how can people like non-industrial/military civs? I just can't play them! And everything needs so much time to be producced.

 

[Tomoyo]

Military civs don't produce stuff cheaper...

It's the industrial and agricultural civs that get the important bonuses, but Industrial doesn't get enough bonuses.

 

[LunaticSlave]

Mayas all the way

 

[Mordack]

I think military civs produce "military" improvements faster

i.e. walls, barracks, civil defense, etc.

yes I know you are going to say that these things are cheap anyway and you are right.

another reason why I think militaristic is one of the weakest attributes

You gotta go with the English. All high & haughty & everything, plus Man-O-War rules with enslavement. Stay in Monarchy FOREVER!!!!!!!!

 

[TyranusBonehead]

I like India, China, and America

 

[CoolioVonHoolio]

The vikings are the best! i'd say they have the best UU replacing the 4-1-1 longbowmen with 6-2-1 berserks who are also amphibious!!!

Celts, baby!

Cant beat religeous and agricultoral ( sorry cant spell). Start with pottery, 1 turn anarchy, plus a swordsman that moves 2 squares? Golden.

And, as discussed in another thred, Brennus looks like a porn star in the modern age.

I like India, since their combination is good, and I like their elephants, Persia is my next favorite, cause I like their immortals.

 

[Monkeyd00]

India, Arabs, and Celts.

Good elephants, fast knights & fast early expansion/war respectively.

 

[Hakim]

Arabs! I'm trying the Japanese now just for a change, but Arabs are still my favourite.

 

[Dachs]

Russia, Greece, and Rome. Expansionist is underrated, but you can get a huge load of money early on. Greece has hoplites, and Rome has Militaristic, and Commercial isn't bad, either.

What? Arent the units built faster? I always thought they were!

Now, if its really only the military improvements the core of this attribute, then I must say... what on hell made me play better with China than with other civs? Yet the Chinese UU is the reason I crushed my enemies in my last game

I often play expansionist civs on bigger maps as I'm usually obsessed in getting one or two free cities whenever I'm lucky to get them from Goody Huts. However, playing on Sid would render the Expansionist trait USELESS!!
