Have you had the barbarian explosion yet? I'm talking 3+ stacks of 20+ horsemen each.

No- my barbarian activities have been light, but I am also playing with 'roaming'.
Where did I my pic go?

Stacked as in occupying the same square. I don't think barbarians have access to armies, at least, I haven't seen any playing on the two highest settings.

There is infinite stacking, but the units don't fight together unless in an army [which is VERY powerful].
Here is a link to an FTP for that file- don't know why it isn't showing up here..:

If you look at each of the blue units surrounding my city, you will see little white 'dashes' underneath their health bars. These indicate 'other' units that are also in the stack.

That's the best screenshot I've seen - if the AI can do that it should be fun

And this was on Monarch level...
I dread the other two higher levels
[see how disgusted my military advisor is with my leadership performance?  ]

I also like the evidence the AI is building large civs.

Just to ask
What is the effect of irrigation in the desert now. The same as before (1food) or? I guess because of small food boxes to irrigate desert is really important now as well and you can grow cities with decent size like Salzburg is 11. (and actually irrigation seems to look much better to me now)

You'd never guess it by looking at screenshots, but it seems like any desert tile that is next to a river is 'Flood Plain' and thus produces *3* food. It's also the only place this terrain seems to occur, which I guess is pretty realistic. After all, the Nile flood plain WAS where the river ran through the desert...

Do I read the screenshot right: the AI has taken Munich (the city surrounded by all the blue units) from you? Is that why your military advisor is upset at you?
Anyway, this should put to rest some of our AI concerns. When in civ2 or SMAC, have we seen an AI that agressive? It does look like the AI will be much more competent in waging war this time.
