Which New Civs Will Be Your First and Second Playthroughs?

First civ: Mongolia. I can’t wait to burn the AI to the ground.

Second: Cree? They seem like a ton of fun, but I’ll wait until I see the other civs before making this decision.
 
Cree have some good jump-start with bonus trader and scout UU, I probably go with them first.
Korea have nice district placement uniqueness, which may cause me to try them second.

Surely those unrevealed civs may have something more interesting.
 
Too early to say. I've won as every vanilla civ (and a few DLC civs) and will likely do the same with R&F. I find I stop playing civs when I have no more civs to play as and achievements to earn (I'm a completionist, what can I say). The Cree look like the most fun so far and Georgia apparently will interact with the new mechanics in an interesting way, so the two of them will be first for me.

Korea, Netherlands and Mongols all seemed a bit on the boring side of things to me. I like the Polders, but otherwise none of them really jump out at me.
 
This thread seems a little premature...
 
Probably France and/or Egypt (i haven't played them), and those civs would fit a lower difficulty better because i want to build more wonders as them.
 
You took my thread idea. But I figured I'd wait until all the civilizations were revealed, as my answer could change. I have to at least wait for the first looks to get an idea what they will be about.

The Cree are high on my list, I do want to try out the new India as well.
 
For the moment I've gone for the Cree (they just look cool) and the Netherlands (dem polders) but it depends what they've done with the remaining four!
 
I'll not vote until the Georgia reveal later today, but right now it looks like Cree wll be my first and Netherlands my second game.

For me the Cree will be my first Civ to play, with Korea and Kongo being in the game. Not sure about second Civ, will have to see the other leaders.

Obviously my second leader will be from R&F.
 
So after the Georgia reveal, it is Cree first. Just some nice different abilities there
 
Georgia possibly second or even first now. Probably going to play as Egypt or France first, followed by Georgia and than Korea / Netherlands. Cree is also nice, but i think i want to play them on a higher difficulty but we will see. Mongols and the Indian alternate leader are also going to be played on high difficulty (and i think they're nice to have as opponents in the earlier games).
 
I withdraw Georgia from my second choice. My preferred playstyle doesn't heavily use religious expansion or city-states, so I'm afraid I would simply find using religion to keep city-states tedious.
 
Definitely Cree, as I've never met a native American civ that I didn't immediately jump on. They look amazing and there's plenty there for me to revel in.

Then Georgia, because it feels like they were designed almost specifically for my play style.

Although, if I'm being honest, I may have to have them flip for the right to see who goes first.
 
I might actually start with a civ I currently play a lot to get a feel of how the expansion additions feel, before adding in even more variables of a new civ.
 
Georgia looks very "meh" to me, so far it's still Cree as my #1, followed by new India leader.
 
OK, unless one of the last three really blows my mind it will be either Cree first and Georgia second ot Georgia first and Cree second.
I think I'll flip a coin.
 
Can't really answer this properly until they're all revealed. But based solely on the ones revealed thus far... hmm I might just start with Chandragupta first since it will be a smaller change civ-wise and I can focus more on adjusting to the new expansion mechanics first of all. Then for a second game maybe Cree or Korea
