My favorite is the Age of Discovery, though not for the SP version. The SP version is too easy even at the really high levels as the AI can't grasp the necessity of treasure units. Where this conquest shines is in PBEM games. Playing against other humans, along with the roleplay value of this conquest, is what makes this one fun for me. That's why I'm in three different PBEMs playing this conquest including The Grand Passage.

I'm voting for the Sengoku Conquest. I like how the units, tech-tree, and improvements are different from from the regular western world ones, and also how you have to start your tribe from scratch, instead of working with a pre-built nation.

Mesoamerica!. I recommend to you people to read the civilopedia entries of that scenario.. it have some nice info about us... erm, about our ancients.

read the civilpedia entry for spaceship in the WW2 pacific scenario

I chose Age of Discovery. Although it is too easy on single player. But I just like it.

But Age of Discovery isn't my favourite by much.

I still enjoy the Fall of Rome and Middle Ages alot.

I'll have to mess with Sengoku some more. I have only played it once so far, but I won so early, I didn't get a chance to mess around with the later techs and units.

WW2 Pacific is decent. Same with Rise of Rome. Rise of Rome just takes so long and has so many units. Mesopotamia is a good quickie scenario. And Mesoamerican is still pretty good. Napoleonic Europe I have to play again as well. My first time through I neglected diplomacy- big mistake. It was tough battling every single country in Europe.

Mesoamerica is the perfect conquest for a PBEM. Tech tree, units, wonders, terrain & victory conditions are very different from the epic game, it is very funny to play

Yeah, and it's also very fun to play if you won on it, right Niessuh?

Middle Ages all the way! It is a great scenario (for warmongers). The various factions have different ways of playing and winning. This one can be replayed a bunch of times without it feeling the same.

Having said that, there isn't much chance of a peaceful builder winning.

What about a peaceful, builders victory for WWII?

By the way, I checked out that Space Ship Civilopedia entry in WWII . I'm glad they have a sense of humour, and decided to put in a couple extra easter eggs.

I like the Middle Ages one the best probably. It's pretty much my favorite period of time in history (right up there with Rome), there are several play styles you can choose depending on what Civ you pick, and its good practice for warmongering which is good for someone like me, who sucks at it. :P

Mesopotamia and Mesoamerica are both really fun, but Mesopotamia is a bit too short and Mesoamerica is a bit too small. The Napoleonic Wars are also fun but not as fun as the others i mentioned.

I think I like Age of Discovery best, with Napoleonic Era second. I really enjoy being a pirate

Before the game came out, War in the Pacific was the one I was the most jazzed about. But I find its replay value to be limited. I have not played them all, but Sengoku Conquest is my favorite so far.

I only played Mesopotamia so I guess that's my favourite.

I like Rise of Rome - it's the rush "do it fast, do it furious" that keeps me playing this scenario. I feel like not having much time/resources to do it, every turn counts, all that stuff...

I voted Age of Discovery, although Napoleon interests me the most historically.

i've played them all, and i have to say Age of Discovery MP rocks.

I can't believe I actually lost a conquest the other day .

Mesopotamia. I built 4 of the 7 wonders as the hittites, but I still lost.

The blue guys (can't remember their name) laid so much waste, that they picked up a ton of points from conquest. Near the end I realized I needed more points, and attacked my nearest neigbor as well. But was only able to conquer 2 cities.

I lost by 90 points.

but even this scenario is pretty fun. I like them all.

edit: just tried this one again- this time playing as the blue guys- sumerians. Pathetically easy. It's funny how how one facti- I mean civ can be so much easier than another. I think a lot of it has to do with starting position. Although the Sumerians early uu is a big factor in both games (the second game I was the sumerians- so I did well).

Must be Sengoku. The others are just TOO short, although they certainly have their moments
Plus, I get to shape my mob the way -I- want it, without all those horribly mis-built cities and mis-placed units

Mesoamerican conquest is the only one really playable online. It has nice balance, offers possibilities for diplomacy, and you get to sacrifice enemy workers, what's not to like.

Rise of Rome is my fave as a hybrid builder, and it shows pretty well that historical period ( the lenghty atmospheric gameplay - huge map and huge number of units next to other scenarios , but perfectly matched in order to simulate what really was a lenghty campaign in roman times ). Closely in 2nd, Age of Discovery, even in solo against the AI, for the colonial pleasure and replay value. Finally I think the best warmongering scenario is Mesoamerica.

voted age of discovery, simply because I want another colonization game. also, I usally play as the dutch or the natives and get my a$$ drop-kicked. I was 1 turn away from winning a cultural victory with the maya, in fact I had enough points to win, but the turn I got it the portugese won by points before me. ARGH!!!
