Sleepwalking Past Hope
I usually use the Mayans, Iroqouis and the Ottomans. Also, the occasional Germany.
I think that they should make the globe spherical like on google earth. Im trying to figure out how to contact the programmers to tell them that the flat map is entirely unrealistic.
I prefer commercial, scientific and seafaring traits.
My top 4 are:
Byzantines,
Dutch,
English,
Portuguese (Late Medieval golden age is nice ^_^)
A bigThumbs Up to Da3dalus.
The only down side I find is they tend to spark an ancient era golden age which kinda sucks...I prefer a medieval or modern era golden age.
My favorite is Carthage. I play continets, so I like seafaring trait for quick exploration. That and the Great Lighthouse usually allow me to find the other civs sooner than anyone, and sometimes trade with them before Astronomy. I also like their UU, but like da3dalus said before:
Carthage's UU is available after bronze working, and I tend to not use them before I'm out of Despotism. So that's a long way, and it's strange how they being such a strong defensive unit, force me to play agressive so I never have to actually defend. I also like the industrious trait. So a good civ overall, except for that thing with the Golden Age.
