DM the weakest mostly said is Yamato as they don't have strong sieges. Only Cents, HHA and Cataphract that are only useful in RM. RM between Greeks and Choson; I think it's Choson in my preference.
In RM Yamato rocks really well so for Yamato it's better to finish the game at bronze age. Choson it's better to iron make either ballista tower or legions like mad.
Choson however in RM can make good rushes their towers can protect them a little better than most towers from other civilizations. If you ask me most players lacks the ability to understand this game to it's best and they will tell you Mace, Cho, Greeks and Roman = Tool Rush better.

In DM, I wouldn't call any civ weak. When I was at my best, I could win vs hittite with yamato. Yamato has cents to kill the eles, and nice cav to kill their siege.
I don't think there is a "weak" civ in DM, but in RM there are a lot of weaker civs, such as mace and greek.

Palmyran is strong enough with 16 villagers a fast bronze with 16 you can create at least 6 camels to beat out your opponent. Despite the fact, bad maps appears most of the time 16 villagers it might be better for a tool rush 20% doesn't means that only 10 villagers will do what 16 does I think it's less sorry if I am wrong but 20 is enough to compete vs a normal 25 or 26 villagers from other civilization. I usually play with palmyra between 16 or 20 or even 23 or 27 if the map permits with greater food around the map.
You are right mass damage from elephants is enough to say Cents doesn't works effective against them. Legions can rush your army but if it's phoenician, macedonian and persian you will be in great danger.
