slow barbarian healing

barb healing still uses vanilla values, they heal 2 HP per turn

Thanks for bringing this up; I fixed it for Gem v1.7.2.

This bug is probably the only thing keeping me alive in my current game with raging barbarians.

they're nasty right! Honor opener is now a very decent option

The reason barbarians were so weak is Firaxis changed the way a barbarian spawn setting works in G&K, but forgot to change the value of that setting. This means a 300-turn game on a Huge map in (unmodded) G&K will only spawn about 6 barb camps in the whole game. In GEM I set the barbarian rate back to the normal level from vanilla (up to 1 camp per turn).

Yes, I picked up Honor as my third or fourth policy IIRC, and I've already finished three policy branches about the same time I acquired Iron Working. At first I thought there was a bug because I got two policies on consecutive turns, but then I realized it was due to a massive barbarian invasion.

dammit, I hope honor opener is not TOO good now with the new barbarians!

then again it's supposed to be great with raging barbs
