Coolness factor has to go to the Norse. They seem darker to me and more war like (duh). However, I can't really say what my favorite will be to play because the gameplay and mechanics are going to be much more different than I could predict.

I'm going to side with jdude and give a feeble cheer for the Eggies. They have a favor system that relies on shameless city-building (albiet it's not quite as good as the Greeks,) some incredible MUs (Avengers, Anubites, Mummies, etc.) and a purportedly defensive style (yay turtlers!)
In close second is definitely Greeks, just cuz they've got hoplites. (And minotaurs, and Underworld Passage...)
Norse just brings Wagnerian Opera to mind, and I can't get used to the ulfsark-building, no matter how hard I try.
In short, here's my opinions on major gods so far:
1. Ra
2. Zeus
3. Poseidon
4. Thor
