        I'm sure he found it funny too.
        as much as I think Spike feels bad about it.

                You two are well ahead of Mr P now. Perhaps there is more of a battle amongst yourselves than you care to admit.

                  Yes I think they have a little bit too much friendly rivallry going on.

                          After years of chasing kings, just to see them disappear, it would be knice to know the logic for this. ANYONE want to take a stab at it. Or for any other barb vanishing.

                          I know barbs will dissapear on the artic.

                            Conjecture:
                            (x) distance from nearest city or civ unit?
                            (y) number of turns after loosing accompanying military unit?

                            Seems like if I can keep close enough, and chase him into a nearby dead end, I can get him if I'm quick enough. Don't know exactly what the (x) or (y) is, though...

                              I doubt x is important. Form experiences on large worlds after you've uncovered the whole map.

                              Y is infered in the manual. But I'm wondering if it's a set value or if it's a percentage throw every turn. My experience leads me to believe it's not a set value.

                                I'll take a guess that barb leaders hang around longer at lower levels than higher levels -- or at least it seems to to me with the Prince level games that I often play.

                                But I agree, at the poles, they disappear their next turn without attacking, and at other times, it seems like a percentage chance per turn that they'll wander...and then perhaps beam themselves up. (Except when they discover an empty fort.)
                                Those with lower expectations face fewer disappointments
