In this turn(3250 BC) I firstly received any units.
Have you ever played for Barbarians?

Cool! 
It would be fun to be the Barbarians!

The tough part is taking a city intact - this early they are usually small.
In a regular game when the pirate ship hits an island it is within 5 tiles of someone's city. It also disappears the next turn after you disembark - you might want to try staying aboard. Otherwise explore the island, if you get gold from a hut try bribing something (that Dip you have is really a Barb Leader).

Ships doesn't disappear. You can use them as a map revealers. But I have noticed(not confident though), that after disembark you can't return to ship.
Hut aren't gathered
They just disappear after you step on them and don't bring anything.
Barb units are really weak and usually lose battle even to settlers.

IMO they lose everything. I have tried tanks against settlers and settlers weren't damaged.Skyer said:

Hmm... I thought that the Barbs received a combat penalty / bonus depending on the difficulty level the game is played at.

Yes, this is valid when the barbs is AI. But if it is a human the penalty is 'unlimited'

No. They don't lose everything. I don't remember exactly, but sometimes units win.
In fact, in Civ1 with increasing difficulty level increases barbs DEFENSE, not attack. I don't know, if that's true in Civ2.

It was couple years ago but I remeber my tanks weren't able to inflict any injury. It may depend on Civ2 version or something.
In Civ2 difficulty level adds just attack to barbs.

HOW are you able to play with Barbarians ? I never saw any such option.

I think it is only in Gold Version. As I too have never seen it. Although I could easily be mistaken.
