Most fun civs in Definitive Edition?

Just got DE. I’ve played this game as a kid and played some of the HD version (ran like shit despite my PC being good and lagged during multiplayer).

The DE is so damn good. Seriously it runs great and I’m loving all these new civs.

The Vietnamese are honestly the most fun I’ve had so far. Being able to see where each player is straight away, getting cheap eco upgrades and being able to kill both cavalry and infantry and siege equipment with the war elephants is so good. The rice hat archers from the castle were great vs skirmishers too (especially when I micro’d to instakill each skirmisher) despite the fact skirmishers technically counter them.

I’m a big fan of the teutons too, so can you guys recommend civs that are similar to those ones, or just civs that aren’t similar but you find really fun? Why do you find them really fun?
