The Game of Everything, Part 1: Making Civilization

I enjoyed Civ4 most because of the detailed fight stats/info before you attack.

Civ5 brought some significant changes to the gameplay but you are in the great position to make an unbiased choice. I loathe it (playing since the first release does that to you) but I have friends who prefer the new gameplay.

I've been playing since Civ2 ~97-98, and I actually enjoyed Civ5 and 6. I kind of like having new constraints and styles to learn, but I know the change to hexes rubbed a lot of people raw, as well as no more stacks of doom! My only complaint is that it's really easy to lose a day or two in a single session.

I played civ 1, 2, ctp and 3, but didn't realise later cobs would run on my laptop (only time I get to play is when away for work) until very recently, and I got civ 5. Seems great to me, perhaps it's the 15 year hiatus.
