Default Re: Mictlan , how to play it effectively

One of the problems with Mictlan is that you are pretty much forced to get growth if you expect the game to Last more than about 50 turns or so.
Even a province with only 3000-4000 people can still be good for bloodhunting in the late game.

[qote]With death scales + bloodhunting + patrolling, your provinces will look like Ermor was there in no time at all!

It's the patrolling that kills the population. The rest don't have a very large effect.

Another huge problem is the fact that after you pool slaves, you must go to ALL your sacrificing priests and put the 4 slaves (you have the jade knife on all your sacrificers, right?) back on them.
Don't use 'pool slaves' with Mictlan. Create control Groups from your bloodhunters in each province, then press 'Z' when you have them selected.
