  • Barbarian Turn

    Do the barbarians move first (before the white civ does) or at last (after the violet civ)? I must confess that I am not sure about it and I don't have a civ copy at hand presently to test it myself.

    Hmmm... I think the white player always goes first, otherwise a Barbarian raid could destroy a players settler before even laying down the first city.

    This could be bull**** though...

      Actually, I think the Barbs do move first.

      I know there are safeguards against Barbs capturing the capital city. Wouldn't be a stretch to have them for the last settler of a cityless civ, too.

        Barbs don't appear randomly until after turn 16, IIRC. And they don't appear from huts until the tipping civ has put down a city.

          If the barbarians get units via events at the beginning of a turn, can they instantly move these units?

            Barbs move first. I'm absolutely sure about this, because I observed it in a good number of hotseat games.
