They would have been handy if someone had raided or artilleried my blood hunters, too.

Oddly, one could consider mass clamming with a blood nation, to totally supplant manual blood hunting. If you had 100 clams, and thus you were capable of Wishing 250 slaves a turn, turning your blood provinces back to tax production, and freeing up those mages to reanimate/summon/bless/forge could potentially revolutionize your late game.

Of course, as Lanka for example, you might be more than happy to just keep hunting, and roll those wishes into 9 Davanas a turn, or something.
