They're running a poll on what your favorite civ is to play at their website:
http://aok.heavengames.com/cgi-bin/aokcgi/display.cgi?action=ct&f=3,36790,0,10Anyway, I'm still learning the nuances of the game, so I started using the random scenario generator, instead of the campaigns, and picked out civs I hadn't played to get a grasp of the nuances of them. I finally found that I was having the most fun playing the Turks, so I voted for them in the poll. So naturally, some effete snob questions my sanity for actually picking the civ I enjoy playing. Oy vey!
If you do play AoE II, and haven't voted, please do so, as the guy conducting the poll wants at least 50 votes and he's been hanging around the mid-30's for at least a week or so.
Finally, am I crazy, or is there a reason I shouldn't have fun playing the game by playing some uber-civ(it appears the consensus is the Goths) instead of the one that I enjoy playing(Turks, followed by Japanese)?
