Definitely improving, but can always be better. Thought there might be something more with the new expansion coming out.

I have to agree with Rome! I'm the type that sticks with my first pick - it's pretty intuitive because I always find something that matches my play style (in any game) at the very start, so I don't deviate further than that. I like rushing science and money, so Rome's ability to have roads as well as trading posts is useful.

One of the other civilizations I enjoy is Norway! There's no other Civs that have caught my eye, though.
