This time it is Hannibal and Carthage who get a turn. Appropriately the map will be Archipelago, and the difficulty steps up to Demigod. Barbs are only Roaming, however, so all you have to deal with are the other 6 AI civs! Good Luck!

As always, have fun playing the GOTM and we hope you join us in the postgame discussions!

Special notes for C3C

NoAIPatrol Setting: There has been a lot of discussion regarding the barb behavior in C3C and how the NoAIPatrol flag controls that behavior. For the COTM competition it is highly recommended that all players set the NoAIPatrol flag to 0 to permit fairly consistent barb behavior across all player's games. This is done by opening the "conquests.ini" file in your favorite editor, adding the line "NoAIPatrol=0" to it, and saving.
