I remember reading at some point that AIs will only ever trade a tech during peacetime if they know at least 2 other civs that have the tech. Is that true or am I imagining things? If true, doesn't that make a start with 2 or fewer AIs completely useless techwise. I was just about to anihalate the weakest member of our neighbourhood when this occured to me...but he only has once city left, so he won't be able to research anything anyways.
That seems like a horribly imbalanced feature, and does it apply to other AIs as well?
This is all assuming that this feature that may or may not exist does exist which it may not...
Another thing that has been bothering me is barbarian cities. How exactly do they work? They don't seem to grow like normal cities do...Do they only grow when the city is out of sight? Every time that I've found a size 1 barb city in a good location, I just have some raiders wait out of sight until it grows, but they seem to grow MUCH slower than normal cities based on the tiles that they have the little houses on.
Also how are workers handeled with barbs? Do they make settlers? Once I remember seeing a worker in the city radius, but then when checked back later it was gone, and then it came back again...weird little buggers...
