Barbarians! Where?! I'm not telling...

[Felis Renidens]

As I see it either give a clear notification + location or don't give them at all. Or - a third option - only notify for camps near your borders, that will limit the notification to what you want to know (and if sound was limited only to those it would be OK, although I would prefer a notification). I would be OK if no warning is given at all but if you bother to sound a horn and add a mark to the map give a notification so that I can zoom to it.

I understand that barbarians will spawn in two ways.

1. From a camp somewhere. If you have at some time uncovered that piece of map the outline of their camp shall be visible. Otherwise not.

2. As rebels in a city that is deeply negative in amenities. Hopefully this happens with a civ you are running down in war. If you now were to be so lucky to have an apostle with a promotion for heathen conversion hanging around nearby, this would be the moment to recruit those barbarians to your military.

(What is the cleared fog of war but still in the map fog area called, by the general populous?)

I call the mist part the "fog of war", and the fully blocked out terrain just "undiscovered country"

Also when you get a quest to clear a camp with in 5 tiles of a city state it should clear the FoW to show you where it is. Or when it spawns

Yawn. Boring and not immersive.

I'll have no notification before being hand fed the whole lot off a silver platter.
