The Immortal Cookbook is a concurrent succession game series aiming to help readers learn how to play and win at Immortal level in Civilization 4: Beyond the Sword, v3.17.
Last update:
Round 3 finished, best save is Abegweits's. Round 4 started and will finish on Dec. 7. Play is up to victory from Abegweit's save. See post#2 in this thread (below this one).
The rules of the IMC series are borrowed from the original series played on Monarch (see Monarchist Cookbook Bullpen):
1. A 4000 BC save is generated.
2. All players on the roster play one round from that save.
3. All saves are uploaded with a corresponding report in a spoiler.
4. Each player who posted a save for the round votes for 3 saves: best save receives 3 points, 2nd place 2, and 3rd place 1. You cannot vote for your own save.
5. Steps 2-4 are repeated using only the previous best save until Victory. In case of a tie players will continue from the save they chose as best among those in the tie. If a player has not voted for any of the saves in the tie, he can choose from which of them to play. If a player's save is included in the tie he can play from it if he wants to.
Settings for this game:
The game was generated with random leader & civilization (but not unrestricted leaders). Note that the speed is Normal, there are no huts and no events.
Starting position:
This is the first save I got, and it hasn't been checked for anything (metal/horses availability, isolation, etc.). The idea of the series is to win all kinds of situations, so we'll play whatever comes our way.
Roster:
- ABigCivFan
- Araneya
- RRRaskolnikov
- Jet
- Kaleb
- Abegweit
- KingMorgan
- carl corey
Rounds:
Round 0: The starting save (this post)
Round 1: 4000 BC - 1AD - we have a tie for first place between ABigCivFan & Abegweit.
Round 2: 1AD - 600AD - best save: RRRaskolnikov
Round 3: 600AD - 1200AD - best save: Abegweit
Round 4: 1200AD - victory - currently playing. Ending Dec. 7th.
