Generally the civilization that you prefer to play either because they're easier, they just flow right, you know everything there is to know about them or other reasons.
For me it's Palmyra, heck if I know why I constantly pick them when I'm playing single player. I guess I just love their villager bonuses and fast moving camels.

Phoenician, Macedonian and maybe Greeks are like my favorite.
Phoenician extra wood helps to create Scythe and Chariot Archers all the time even if you don't iron you still win.
Macedonian not able to escape from calvary or camel rush but strong hoplites surprise your enemy buildings and if you Iron you can do alot of Stone throwers and Phalanx.
Greeks Calvaries, hoplites and slingers at Iron Phalanx and Helepolis my point of view is mostly in RM.
Minoan one of the best in Water maps at land they aren't the best but they can do serious damage. Their iron age is like just boom and composite bowman don't forget the camels Asians likes to use alot of camels then later they use composite bowman.

I'd go with Minoans as well. It was the first civ I actually became good at, both in RM and DM.

I like the Hittites too. Early "alchemy" for their archers. Siege weapons can take extra beating. And their War Galleys have extra range to compete with Catapult Triremes and above.
I think my only gripe about them is that they lack the Fishing Ship tech and the lack of improved/composite bowmen. I remember playing the demo that I made it a priority to make sure to convert any fishing ship/composite bowman I came across just to spite the game.

Hittite can take Assyrian at Hills they are like pair. I mean there like stuff in the games in depth like glitches on the game I always see Assyrian killing fast Egyptian archers and Hittite killing Assyrian sometimes.

Egyptian archers are as fast as any other civilizations, the main military advantage of egyptians are theri stronger chariots.

Egyptians kills Hittite, Assyrian kills Egyptian and Hittite kills Assyrian.
Assyrian is the strongest without nobility however, they can be hurted badly by Hittite.
Egyptians are the strongest but their fire rate does nothing I mean if you don't have the range upgraded or your move your chariots and let them died I think you can't dodge with Egyptians so much you need to be more aggressive.
