I made the mistake with Civ3 of starting our on the easiest setting and winning easily. It was great to win the early games but I developed really poor strategies which I then had to unlearn. This time I will start with whatever setting makes me and the AI equal, no bonuses to anyone. My first game my goal is just to survive as long as possible and get a feeling for the game. As much as I would enjoy winning, I am hoping to get destroyed my first several games. I want an AI which will be challenging without receiving bonuses and I want to have to spend time learning the game until I am able to compete with the AI.
