Barbarians! Rarrrrgh!

I've even had my cities attacked few times xD They only knocked off like 20% of the hp lol.

For barbarians that's quite an achievement.

Yeah, me too. I've never seen that before.
At last we can get that hard to get achievement
("He Threw a Car at My Head!")
Although apparently 0,8% did manage to pull that one off

I think this is intentional (healing + fortified barbarians would be incredibly strong and annoying).

It hasn't changed with BNW, they only spawn faster but don't heal.

Barbs have never been able to fortify heal, but once pillage-healing was introduced, they've been able to pillage-heal.

The barbs are pretty annoying. I had three or four barb horsemen come out of nowhere and pillaged three of my wine plantations, and then poof! They scooted back out.

Had the same thing happen and it was annoying, but then I got archaeology and noticed all the sweet sweet antiquity sites and all was well again.

Yeah, that horrific massacre around Lyon four thousand years ago really cheered me up, not to mention those three barb camps 15 tiles from my capital.

Honestly, I really like the change. I just hate when there are two camps ten tiles away through jungle, that harass me. Such a pain to clear them. But they constantly send units

A barbarian composite bowman just bombarded my city. Is this to be expected in BNW?
