It would be helpful if you could supply some saves that display this behaviour. Gyathaar is building a custom DLL, but it would be good to verify that he is addressing all the issues.

Pardon my lack of expertise, but will a custom DLL need to be installed, uninstalled, reinstalled, uninstalled as we rotate between SGOTM 04, GOTM, WOTM and SGOTM 05?
Hopefully not, but if so, then hopefully it will be a simple thing to do?

Well, the greater role of captains in CRC team was determined by lesser experience in GOTMs/SGOTMs of the other players, and was designed to encourage discussion for greater understanding of team goals by all members - a point which was sometimes an issue in CFR teams. For the particular team - particular design, that's all. Captains have never abused their final say power and team members retained total flexibility in the decision making within the general plan boundaries. As a member of all CFR and CRC teams I don't see the difference that drastic.

My point exactly. You needn't be defensive about CRC, as my post wasn't aimed at you but at this faulty line of reasoning:
CFR = Russian team
CRC = Russian team
CFR = CRC

So what team wants a guy who wins on monarch, but needs to do some learning to get good enough to win something other than a wooden spoon?
Don't everyone come running at once!
This game will need a different mod due to the already-discussed issues with the barbarian-flavoured team. The custom DLL is one of the files in the mod folder. But you'll just add a new mod for this game to your vanilla Mods folder and keep all the existing mods needed for your other games. Each game selects the mod it requires from your installed set of mods when you load it - the fastest way to do this from cold is to double click the game save file that you want to play, then the mod loads as Civ4 or Warlords starts up.

Great! If it's all in a mod, quite simple!
Will it still have all the goodies of the HOF mod, and have you thought of a suitable unique name for it? Seems inappropriate to just give it the next number in the HOF series! 
dV
Yes, it will be an adaptation of the HoF Mod specific to games where the barbs can win. So it will probably be unique to this game, and maybe that will also describe its name.

Loaded up an autosave for a game that kept crashing and of course it works now. Perhaps playing a game in the same session where I've been using worldbuilder causes problems? 
I'll have another try this evening.

I just wonder, will everyone play this SGOTM after BTS comes out...I bet I wont...

I suspect that for those of us with established team loyalties (and/or team rivalries
), we will play this one anyway, as at least for me, the play is for the teamwork and the competition, not the platform.dV

I'm with dV on this one! The game is the game, the Rivalries, now that's where the game is.

No problem, but can we have threads to talk amongst ourselves?
Agreed. Getting some team threads up would be helpful.

From what I can tell, there are lots of people (me included) who don't actually race out and buy every new game or expansion the day it is released. I'll be waiting until the price comes down before I buy it.

I certainly will be playing this SGOTM. I may be somewhat less focused than usual though.

I was actually intending to wait until the first patch came out before I bought BTS. However when I saw it was selling at £14.99 on play.com I thought 'what the hell ' and ordered it.
