One fully loaded, slightly experienced Tribal King(65 slaves) can reliably and completely control unrest for two SDR hunters. A newbie(50) TK sometimes loses control in spikes.

With growth-2, I can sustain a relatively stable population with one patrolling Tribal King and two SDR-equipped Mictlan Priests, in a province of > 15K pop, since the province grows at about 600 people per turn, and the patrol kills are maybe in the 100-300 range. With populations of less than 15K, I tend to go with just one hunter for patrolled hunting, and for provinces of < 8K, I forget about the patrollers and just do 0-tax hunts with 2 Priests per province. Any province with > 4K population gets hunted. The blood must flow.
