I've written about this before I'm pretty sure, I just don't remember where.  If you'd read all my threads you would already know.

It's one, plus one more for every four missing units. So if a landmass supports 20 barbs, and there are currently 4 on it, then there are 16 missing, so 1+4=5 will be created.
That explains why you get a bunch of barbs the first turn they can spawn. Cool!

t85:
* Hashoosh got (and connected) another city. Yay! * I thought the galley could reach the island in two moves, but what I thought was the northernmost land tile of the island is actually just water. Oh well, nothing we could do differently. Workers are taking a slightly longer route to the coast, involving a road build. (I'm planning to shuttle over 2 on a galley ASAP.) * Other plans proceeding apace. * The barb spear near GP moved next to the city on an unimportant tile, so I just parked our axe in the city (along with another body) rather than attack it. Might as well get the extra defense since it was only a 1xp fight anyway, and also, might as well play to keep that spear alive as long as possible to delay the next barb unit. * Spotted a barb warrior in the south. Yay!
Gonna try to stream t86 in half an hour.

Sorry, I've been delayed. Don't expect anything until later.
My window I could play the turn in passed, I had a busy day, and I played late this evening while not feeling up to figuring out the streaming stuff. So here is a typical report, which I'm sure many prefer anyway.
t86: Looking good right now. Next turn we're founding two more cities and finishing currency. GNP is still low of course. Cities are expensive!  Well well well.  And here's Night Watch, settled t84 as mentioned previously without pictures. Going to chop 2 outside-culture forests to accelerate the workboat and granary. They are worth 20h each.  On t88, we will be able to cancel the ivory for horse deal. I'm not sure yet exactly how I want to handle that. Honestly, Hashoosh surprised me by accepting that deal, since temporary luxuries aren't that strong. So maybe he thought it's semi-permanent? I don't know. Ideally it goes like this: 1) We cancel the resource deal. 2) Hashoosh requests 1 gpt. 3) We grant the request and additionally throw in a couple gold. But the problem is that step 2 is actually "???". I guess the likely worst case is he just cancels OB, and then we re-offer with gpt thrown in? But who knows what he will think is a fair price for it. Maybe he thinks straight up OB is fair, or maybe he thinks OB for 7gpt is fair because our exports - imports is 15. Neither is really correct.
I suppose the island city is going to be called Jingo?
