During play I've gotten the impression hills with the the gold resource bonus don't provide a defense bonus. Enemy barbarians won't attack me on regular hills or mountains. If I move that unit to gold bonus hills it has no problem attacking and kicks my butt without a scratch on it. (both 1/1 warriors, except mines average not conscript) Of course, fight outcomes are so annoyingly varied and irrational... its hard to tell.

When I attack it on a gold bonus hill it manage the same damage as on flat terrain. I wonder if other resource bonuses cancel out defensive bonuses.

Is there way to make units that are assigned to move a path cancel orders if they encounter enemy/barbarian units?

Are they still taking/using requests for future patches? Will there be any more patches does someone know?
 
Sometimes units will stop actions like exploring when barbarians are near them

Gold does not provide a defensive bonus unless i am grossly mistaken
 
Resources don't affect terrain defensive bonus. It sounds like you are playing C3C? If so, the barbarians have a tendency to only attack on the NW-SE axis. So if you are not on the axis when off the gold but on it when you move onto the gold, they attack then. The rest is up the random number generator.

Check the preferences for cancelling orders.

There is not gonna be any more patches or fixes for any version of civ3. They have our money.
 
The next patch to come out is called "Civ IV." Expect it sometime in the fall (spring for ANZACs).
