My opinion wasn't asked for and I'm bad at Civ, but based on my experience (IV, V, and VI), I'd go with V first. IV is a bit ugly and the doom stacks are ridiculous, but otherwise it's a very good game (or at least I thought so when I played it as my first Civ game a looong time ago). V is more modern and overall a very good game but definitely not perfect either (I think AI was cited as a problem, especially with the limit of one unit per hex?). I believe III has a good reputation as well, Beyond Earth not so much. I'm sure JEMC will be able to provide a much deeper opinion about the games with his experience, but that's my two cents based on my limited experience (just three games with at most 100 hours each).

You have too high an opinion of me.

You're a fan of stacked units? I don't think I could have dealt with it.

Well you've played 300 hours of just one Civ game, which might be more than all my Civ experience combined.

I'm... not a fan of stacked units, that's why I called them ridiculous. Limited stacks are probably fine, but stacking all you want in one tile? Nope, nope, nope. I mean it's not terrible, but it's definitely not great either. I'd take one unit per hex/tile any day, even with all the AI trouble it brings with it (based on my limited experience, again - if I had hundreds if not thousands of hours in any one Civ game, perhaps I might think otherwise).
