how would you play Mictlan

Each sacrificed slave counts as one non-Mictlan temple (or prophet, or home province). This means that the effectiveness of sacrifice depends on the God's dominion strength (including boosts from number of temples).

Obviously the ability to make each of your temples count as five (for HPotS with Jade Knife, not counting prophets or national heroes) could be quite spectacular, however, the cost is pretty steep. Maybe Mictlan priests should get a blood hunting bonus similar to Fountain of Blood (not as powerful of course).

Does anyone know why Mictlan is allowed to take the Ceremonial Faith theme (its only effect is to raise the effectiveness of preaching, which Mictlan can't do at all)? Also, how does Restless Worshipers work with Mictlan - does it spread your dominion for free (could be very valuable)?

Of course, as scales currently stand, the Last thing an already weak nation needs is a turmoil scale...

IIRC Ceremonial Faith is not allowed, it's just there and useless. It shouldn't be there at all.

Restless worshippers do not give additional spread points, but allows spreading dominion to easily reduce other dominions and is therefore as useful to Mictlan as to any other player.
