Pangea map type (small): It's a big supercontinent with a thin sailable border around it. However, the border is quite easily blocked, which creates this artificial limitation to your movement. I thought I wouldn't need to use ships at all, but the game very much seems designed for ships. With this issue in mind, I think a Pangea map is a bad choice. The standard type with separate continents seems like it would be more fun.
Choose new Civ per age or Time-Tested? I would recommend chosing a new Civ and enjoy the new units. It's like you're playing 3 shorter games on the same map, which, once you get your head around it, can be quite fun.
Crises Enabled? I have turned off the Crisis feature and the game works fine without it. I don't need that stress.
Game Speed I have been playing on the fastest 'online' speed. I don't know why you would go slower, seems like the game would be too boring.
