I once played a game on Noble. I was a small crowded map and Huayna Capac was right next to me. So my warrior declared war and entered his territory. This was Turn 4. He had a quecha outside of his city exploring and another quecha already in his city.
Obviously this was cheating? Unless if he had a goody hut in BFC and it popped a quecha.
No, the AI doesn't get free warrior triggered by war. But at least in BTS the first build is warrior - should be always. And as mentioned, AI gets free hammers for new city, so the first warrior is quick build. Really quick.
Of course on Monarch and above the AI has Archery for free and starts with extra Archer, so defensive unit is not required as first build..
Do you have any savegame files so we could check?
(I am pretty sure that the AI does NOT cheat, it just has some nice bonuses...)
Are you absolutely certain, azzaman? I've never read about that kind of bonus before, and it doesn't sound like doable with xml. Also, I do remember report of someone walking into an empty capitol on turn 3 as the AI warrior had moved away to explore when the player and AI civs had started bordering eachother.
I've done a lot of warrior rushes, and the warrior popping out the turn after I've declared war happens at least 99/100.
The AI will get 10 free city production points in a city when that city is founded.
