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
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 ).

city tile). I opted to sword rush gilgamesh because our raw commerce with that opening is OK to get them timely + chop. I ran into only 1 problem:
. Had he not done that, I succeed in sword rush and win. Copper city was the only city he had on a hill, and his only other source of metal (iron, N of capitol) I had pillage-locked. However, without my own metal I couldn't reinforce and was screwed. Protective archers in a city are piss-poor vs AGG swords. Even with walls + fortify swords have winning odds on flats. I took copper city turn 3 of war and pillaged copper so he had no ability to make vultures other than his 2 left alive empire-wide...but I took losses on that hill city to snatch his metal. I couldn't hold off his iron and still take cities without building more swords, and so the culture flip was lethal.
