I also agree with MasterBroccoli and Papermaniac.

Civs have bonuses for a reason...it represents their historical strengths. Some civs were strong in certain situations, some were weak. Trying to nerf and balance history doesn't make sense.

Don't get me wrong, for game purposes some balancing is necessary if one civ is the best at too many things and there is no other civ to counter them, but that is rare.

The only civ I would agree with nerfing is the chinese. Since the original AoK, they have been a little to good at everything, and with the HD choice to rip bonuses off other civs and use them to buff the chinese further, they've perhaps gone too far. Of course, that's just the perspective I've always had of them.
