Started a custom game last night on "Warlord" difficulty. By the time I quit last night (at about 1400AD), my score was about double that of each of the two civilizations I had encountered. Things were going pretty well, and it seemed that I had some big advantages over the AI nations that made things easy for me.

Today, however, when I loaded last night's game to continue, the difficulty setting is listed as "Noble". I just continued for two hours and things seem much more difficult. Russia attacked me and has been able to hold ground they gained in their initial invasion. They are producing units like crazy. My advances seem to be coming slower, and the the AI countries seem both more active and more productive. During the afternoon's session, both of the other countries were able to keep pace with my score.

In other words, I think my game jumped a level of difficulty on its own. I might be mistaken and actually played at "Noble" difficulty last night, but things sure feel more difficult now than last night.

Anyone else run into anything like this?
