Started a throwaway game as Canada last night after it downloaded. Poor Mexico City, my friendly neighboring CS was getting hit with natural disaster after natural disaster...dust storms, 1000 year flood, normal floods. And here's me with one minor flood that damaged a farm. And Russia deciding to take out my friend but I had few units so couldn't do anything about it compared to his hordes. But the barbarians seem to be more numerous and aggressive. Cleared all the surrounding camps and more kept popping up in areas I cleared. I had a barbarian scout attacking Halifax! I've never seen a barbarian scout attacking a city before. But the barbarian hordes were kind of hard to manage in the early game for me. Maybe because of the proximity to tundra tiles?
