Hmm... guess I should have checked this thread out a little more. All kinds of things going on.
Anyway, my barbarians are happy to report a win against Hawklord's Romans. I caught a couple of lucky breaks early on and was able to hold off the Roman hordes until my civs got up to speed. Then I tried the "swarm everywhere at once and hope for the best" offense. And this time it actually worked!--44 hard-fought turns later.
VP total was 24355 for the barbs and they didn't give a final number for Rome. Not sure why.
In my game against Gnarfflinger it's hard to say which way it's going. My Romans were able to destroy the Franks and take the Visigoths down to two cities but the other tribes have risen up and are coming at me hard. An endless stream of Vandal warlords and Sassanid cavalry are marching toward me but I'm fending them off for now.
My offensive moves have been pretty ineffective recently as the Sassanids easily wiped out my cavalry stack in the south and my invasion of the Celts stalled out quickly. But I've still got high hopes for the huge sneak attack I have planned of 4 dozen cavalry in... whoops... um, I mean what sneak attack? No sneak attacks here.
