   Whatever we do, it's safiest to do it in only one place. To be sure of
nbarbarians, we can through all the players and check the result. If this 
test is validated, it's ok to calculate nbarbarians by update if not it's
better to iterate through all the players. Fog of war is updated when
needed. And, it's much more complicated than nbarbarians. 

  Talking of fog of war, there are much simalarities between fog of war
(fow) and zone of control (zoc). Can zoc can updated as fow ? Can zoc's
rules be modified so that fog of war and zoc have the same meaning most
of the time ?
