- Greeks
- Egyptians
- Norse
- Atlanteans
For me, it has always been the Norse, due to their complex economy.

Hm let’s start the other way round from what i ppl playing and what I personally (just as a relative noob!) played:
I would say the „easiest“ are Greek and Atlanteans. Green cause of being the most accessible and Atlantean for having the easiest economy. (I personally always sucked as Atlanteans x))
Norse is already harder to play cause if their mechanics but Egypt is definitely also quite hard (I personally sucked with Egypt nearly as much as Atlanteans. Maybe Norse got easier in retold cause of having better answers to flying units and I feel like they go generally buffed which I appreciate. From what I saw Egypt got harder cause they are relative speaking a bit weaker now it seems.
Hard for me to answer.
Greeks are very AoE2 like to guide people into AoM.
Atlanteans felt like easy mode in AoM but that changed a little in AoMR. Still a lot easier since not needing drop of buildings and having to manage half as many villagers is still pretty convenient. The new Oracle system doesn’t seem to be that complicated or micro intensive but it’s clearly the most complicated favour generation system now.
Norse have always been my main civ. I love being able to build buildings with Infantry. I also love the Home City Cards in AoE3(DE) that enable this feature for some civilisation.
I might be bias here. Look at my name.
Also Ox carts are cool. Almost as flexible as not needing a drop of building.
But Egyptians never felt complicated to me. It’s just kinda annoying to have to upgrade every unit individually. One of the things I love about AoM is that you have to upgrade less different stuff and that it’s easier to switch unit types, especially as Norse where almost everything is Infantry.
But free buildings are pretty convenient though.
Kinda ironic that dropping of resources is the most inconvenient for the Greeks. They have buildings that cost wood.
Norse buildings move, Egyptians are free and Atlanteans don’t even need any.
Every Civ is fun to play but If I had to pick one I struggle with the most, I might have to say the Atlanteans. Earily game, ok. Late game, now we’re cooking with gas. Mid-game? Holy shit, how do I manage everything aaaannnnd I’m being attacked again, cool.
