Civ4 Immortal is not that bad, it is almost always winnable, if not by military means then by culture. Civ4 Deity is very hard to win on Standard Map and larger even if only by diplomacy and that would be the most reasonable win. Essentially impossible to win by Space and military win will be extremely hard to pull off unless really lucky with map setup. I'd say it is harder than Sid level in C3C by a wide margin. But Sid was also hard unless played on Archipelago map. Here, in Civ5, Deity on Archipelago is quite playable on normal speed and people who play marathon say it is not very challenging. IMO, epic speed will be about right to play for Deity and map type Archipelago. I even started one such game to win by culture and it went well up until ... the patch came out and I cannot open the save any longer since then.

Oh, ye, almost forgot, please accept the friendly challenge.
