Main thing is not to let the game drag out for too long otherwise barbie will destroy you in post-imp, micro or no micro
Could you or anyone post a record with the rules I stated, would like to see if and how it is possible.It's pretty doable to beat on hardest if you know what you're doing.
Was this on Standard/Low resource start or High/DM? Also, is this the latest Barbarian (2.14b)?u sure that's the correct version? it did normal feud and castle time when i played it on hardesti played it on hardest in huns ara and it went for 4 min fued 9 min castle.. like wtf
i also tried it multiple times and it goes min 10 castle, but also masses army :lol: :lol:
mostly skirms, spears+milita, but also 2-3 scouts.

Rules:
-Barbarian on hardest
-Conquest
-standard for everything else
-no castles or walls by human player
-both huns
-AoFE version 2.1
-map arabia
For me on up 1,4 (version 2.14 AI )in 1v1 huns war hardest it got easier the longer the game went.
The AI goes for the ca instead of the mangonels with his kts skirms/ca mix.
In imp i finished him off with tarkans ^^
In feudal age you can also out-micro him pretty easily as Genette said.
@Wofford can it be Up 1.4? i can try it again without castles this time.
I dont have aofe^^
Guitarizt, the AI in the rec you posted earlier wasn't Barbarian. It was the built-in Petersen AI ("Computer"). If you play on aoc 1.4, the latest Barbarian will always be named "Barbarian" in-game, instead of a generic civ AI name like "Theodoric the Goth".
Be sure it looks like this under "Other Players" by clicking the dropdown arrow next to "Computer":

not sure if it is possible to beat it late game at all.
I don't know how to verify this, maybe scripter can tell us.Hey Wofford!
About Rene_Artois recorded game, doesnt the Ai say "gg well played" and not "No wonder thou wert victorious! I shalt abdicate" like the normal AI?
Is it maybe a outdated Ai?
What I should do to make my Barbarian more difficult? Start game by voobly with 1.4rc user patch? Thats all what I need?
normally i lure him to corner first, then throw 12 level 5 archers at once,
or use 5 level 5 barbarian to keep him busy then drop 3 minions
TheMax is continuing to improve Barbarian, so it's becoming stronger, more flexible, and, for people like me who are terrible players lol, more fun to watch. I think Barbarian v2.15 is coming soon, and TheMax always uploads his latest stable version at nC_Andorin's link on the AoKH Blacksmith, so you can check there for updates. If you have any recs (win/lose/draw lol), please post them, as they are all very helpful for improving the AI.
