alternatively to all th bad press, the pop eating thing can be used to your advantage, sieging an enemy fort even if you don't take it you will cripple the economy of the fort so it can't output a good number and quality of troops.

They eat human not for living, just for enjoyment.

Just compare to the demon units which have tags "need not eat" and meanwhile "gluttony" (e.g. dai oni). They do consume supply which bring other units problems, but if there is no supply for them to waste at all, they will not starve neither.

But it´s an alternative. That way they wouldn´t be truly "not eating". They would not starve while there was population, or supplies, but they would still need to eat.

Nephilim do not require food due to their supernatural angelic heritage, but eat for fun. You miss the point, they can live indefinitely without food, they do it for thematic cruelty.

I didn't have time to run a test but I'm wondering... do the popeaters increase unrest where they are? It would feel weird if people searching some random virgin to sacrifice drive the people mad, but giants eating indiscriminately all the people just for fun don't.

Hinnom have the pop eating ritualized and under control with a blood cult, with people delivered to the Rephaim as they are God Kings with divine status. Sorta like offering food to the gods.

Well, the solution ofcourse is that, when they run out of Pop. to consume, they don't starve, they just start eating each other.

Yes, I lost a size six chariot due to snacking... As an experiment I gift of reasoned one of their archers, Heh. I then kitted him out. Quite amusing. Is using a bow while you have a shield a bug? next I just gor a chariot, much less for gems spent.:D

Baah, if so, Mictan would have "ritualized" the blood slaves centuries ago :D

Actually Mictlan has "ritualized" blood slaves centuries ago, but only at their central temple. You know, the site that produces 3 blood slaves per turn. ;) :p
