  • Human Barbarian Player

    Wouldn't it be interesting if a person could play the Barbarians? The Barb player could not "win" and would be limited to playing by the Barb rules and objectives (random mayhem). There could be some built-in restrictions against targeting specific civs too much, and the Barb player would just be there to improve the harrassment of the AI Barbs...

    For example, the Barb player would not be able to build cities (unless it captured one as Barbs do now - and the AI would still be in charge of city-building), it could only use the units that the AI creates anyway (and they would appear "randomly" around the map), and it would stay subject to current restriction like not being able to take a civ's only city.

    In the 17th OCC fortnight game we had a scenario where you could play both the barbs and a regular civ. You have to hex-edit the saved game. Check the creation forum to find out how to do that. http://apolyton.net/forums/Forum4/HTML/000876.html is a thread dealing with this.
