The most annoying of all civs are the Jamiroquais and their stupid UU: the ball of mirrors. When I hear their Disco anthem I wish to be a space-cowboy to annihilate them

yeah Greek Hoplites are annoying, but the Zulus are invariably strong every single time I play, which annoys me as I can't kill them without huge losses and massive need to throw money into production.

Nope. What's their UU? Maybe I'll nominate them for the next most annoying civ poll simply because I find it annoying that I can't find them.

Am I the only one who consistently gets drilled by hordes of angry Immortals who torch vast tracts of my territory? Persians it is.

From this poll options:
Greek: Can't remember any game, were I actually started nearby these people...
Germany: When I want to waste 'em, I waste 'em, no question about that
Persia: A mixture of Greek and Germany, I seldom starts nearby those people, but the times I do, I just waste them, when I find the right time...
With other words...I demand a re-poll
Nobody beats the English in annoyance...

aw cummon... hoplites are harmless, you just can't beat them... so wait until knights and longbowmen.
but the immortals.... they can REALLY kick you a$$. they'll win >50% of the attacks against fortified spearmen. and 2 in defence make them difficult to whipe out on the battlefield before their attack.
what's annoying about lizzy? she's ugly, but harmless

It really depends on your own favoured civ, doesn't it?
If you like to play one of the American civs, for example, and you play with culturally linked starting locations, then you probably won't meet any of these for the first long while.

The Greeks are a big annoyance to me. Their Hoplites are tough to overtake before Knights come into play, unless you're playing with a Civ that has a UU with an attack value of 4.
The Persians have given me the biggest Civ scare of my life. They came after me by surprise in one game. I allied with them to wipe out the rich and plentiful Babs. While I was still in the build and fortify phase, they surprise attacked me with a stack of Immortals, spearman and pikeman 100+ deep! I survived the onslaught (Using my own quickly assembled stack of quicker/retreating Knights), then wiped them off the planet in revenge. Yet that was a real scare. They were allies up to that point.
However, the worst for me has to be the Zulus. Their so aggressive. They seem to gobble up key city locations in the early game. I don't know how many times i've raced a settler and warrior/spearman to a key city spot and they beat me there by a turn.  Anyway that's my vote. I say the Greeks if I stick to the list. Zulus if I don't.

Russinas. I usually play on my real world map as India China or Rome. Russians are always there. They never leave you alone and they attack you even when you're biger than them. Cossacks are a late game UU. I hate playing against a late game UU. (germans are usually a non-factor in real world games with 16 civs).
