In light of testing VBF did I want to revise my estimation of how effective blood sacrificing is. Here's the thread in question:

So, each slave you sacrifice causes 2 temple checks. That means my suggested 5 druids teleporting in with jade knives would have the effectiveness of 45 temples in a tightly concentrated area using 1200 gold in temples. That's a three turn KO in the right situation.
Turn 1: 5 temple druids teleport around the enemy capital while golems, more druids, etc teleport onto the capital wiping out the PD and sieging it.
Turn 2: Temples go up, capital siegers retreat
Turn 3: All the temple checks from blood sacrifice go off *before* anybody in the capital can attack any of the temples.
Well, since the enemy capital is likely to be domed you might need to use something more sneaky like flying in a golem or using something stealthy. Naaaaaasty potential.
