Greetings, Immortals and would-be Immortals (and indeed any other players of any level), and welcome to the Immortal University.
Here is our Leader:
Here's the opening scene:
The following settings were used to create this map
And the Demographics for people to spot any info they can
Before we start, here's the copy & paste bit where I get to pretend that I'm TMIT:
To play, just extract the WB save file into your worldbuilder saves directory, then play it. Use custom scenario if you want some extra settings to tickle your fancy. This series was designed for people learning immortal, so most people here will be at that level or trying to attain it, although deity players are welcome also. Hell, if you want to play this on NOBLE. The intention of this and any other game thread I post is to get better. Play whatever level you need in order to improve.
If you are aspiring IMM+, try to remember to add archery back to the barbs in WB. Every time you don't, a deity AI will kill a kitten, although there are a lot of kittens so it's not the end of the world if you prefer easymode barbs .
I do request people to list their difficulty and speed. In terms of updates, well nobody follows that anyway. Post in the manner you feel comfortable. Typical comparison dates are 1 AD, liberalism, and victory/defeat, as well as any major events. If in doubt, go with that.
We also have an initial Immortal/Normal autosave which is much more convenient since you can avoid all the worldbuilder shenanigans. It comes with my personal seal of approval (not least as my worldbuilder edits may contain hideous game-destroying errors that could cause your computer to explode ).

duh your right about the fresh water. Maybe settling on the marble would be better, one reason I started hosting is to learn, thanks MeowZeDung.
When i declared von Justinian with Cannons/Muskets/Maces/Pikes in 1100 AD the obv AP vote came to stop the war(Pacal was AP Chief) and the unhappiness hit me so hard at some point i couldn't build reinforcements anymore and lost money on 0%. I wasn't prepared. Also his 12 Strenght Knights are really annoying.

I did take a peek at the map in WB, but no changes were made. It's interesting to read this thread vs. the threads that people win the game very easily.
) and upgrading the garrisoned archer and spear while moving my stack to threaten his capital. Alas, he retook the city on the next turn and fortified his capital with an equally huge stack. I just did not have the production necessary to keep this war going, although I might have taken his capital in the next 2-3 turns. I just didn't want to be bothered to struggle through a medieval war from an already rough starting position only to fall further behind in tech, and I definitely didn't want to switch to a "settle the new world" strategy.
