The other thing is: if you reload, you are not cheating the game (which isn't cheating you, rules are rules), you are cheating all other players in the GOTM.
Spoony said:Can't answer your marathon question, but if you are experiencing axes as barbarians and you only have warriors it means the AI are far in advance of you in technology. Also you may need to concentrate your early research on military advancements to make sure you don't get caught out.
Spoony said:One of the keys to preventing barbs is to keep the fog preventing sight as far back as possible.

There seem to be "waves" of barbarians at roughly around 2000BC, 500BC, 500AD, and 1200AD.

Ruffin said:It's ridiculous that barbarians are using units no civ has yet. The only solution is to back up eight or twelve turns, reload, and rush build defenses. (Playing marathon, prince, so I have to back up that far to build even warriors.)

bippukt said:BTW, I noticed that barbs dont give you any experience after 10 XPs, no matter how many you kill. This is preventing me from getting the West Point. Any way to get around it, because I don't want to dedlare war on anyone.
DynamicSpirit said:Nope, no way round it in vanilla Civ. 10xp from barbs is a documented limit. In Warlords you can get round it by attaching a great general to a single unit so that unit gets the entire 20 XP from the general to himself (A trick I've used a couple of times early in the game so I can build the heroic epic when I haven't done much warring).
