Barbarians appearing out of nowhere

[rkade8583]

Just to confirm, I've found this over 5 games since BNW released. It doesn't matter what mapscript I'm on or who I'm playing as or against (single player only)

Sometimes, sets of two barbarians will appear inside my civ's borders for no reason. It's always two of the same barbarians. I've also noticed this happening sometimes when I try to take out encampments so maybe it's related to that?

Tricky those barbs

Besides that, if your people are unhappy (I think it is -10 nowadays) they can appear. Also if you have a rebellion (due to ideology) they can appear.

I've been to the modern era and seen that happen but some of the times I was in the medieval era and two pikemen just popped up right in the middle of my very happy, very rich empire... and then 2 more... and then 2 more. Suddenly, my empire died.
