Re: Mictlan , how to play it effectively

Overall, it's a pretty bad deal for Mictlan though. In real game scenarious you are going to be fighting off hostile dominions all over and not just against one enemy. The amount of blood required...

Re: Mictlan , how to play it effectively

What I was assuming was a constant 5 slave sacrifice over a few turns would really start to turn the dominion around. That's why I was saving up rather than just sporadically cutting a few...

Re: Mictlan , how to play it effectively

Good with Ermor, not quite so good with Mictlan...although I can definitely see the benifits of having an undead horde opposed to a bunch of awful troops....

Re: Mictlan , how to play it effectively

Not sure I agree with that. Patrolling is very costly in population so it's really self defeating. You can counter it with growth but you can also counter having a few 0% tax 'feeder provinces'...

Re: Mictlan , how to play it effectively

Actually I was working on a strategy of hoarding slaves and then mass sacrificing them at strategic points. I'm doing ok in a military and magic sense (I lead both gem and cash income and have a...

In the latest game I've got 3 priest kings in a feeder province and I usually bloodhunt with 2 while slaving with the other. The population is only about 6000 but I'm getting around 4-8 each per...

Re: Mictlan , how to play it effectively

Re: 10 Magic Strength Pretenders....

Actually I've was playing it MP (well 2 of us and 15 AI on Orania map) at normal level and we both crushed the AI out of sight. We tried at difficult AI and continued to crush the AI so I took up...

Re: 10 Magic Strength Pretenders....

Ermor under Ashen Empire or Soul Gate can pretty much be hammered on the harsh scales. I'd usually take turmoil, sloth, death and misfortune 3. The misfortune 3 sounds like a good idea (ie, you'll...
