Re: Scout Bloodhunting Nerf - New Numbers?

Especially if he hunts without bodyguards. You send a 9 hp, 9 str, practically unarmed (maybe a dagger) mage out to look for blood slaves and he never has to face outraged fathers or potential husbands? Now, if he brought a bodyguard of Spine Devils with him, I can understand that his efforts would be unlikely to be resisted. But otherwise, they ought to face outraged relatives fairly often (counts as an assassination attempt) and if unrest is high, full-grown lynch mobs. Except maybe if there is a strong order dominion. And, of course, there's always the possibility that your chosen victim is the next Rhianne the Heroine...
IIRC, there's even a message you can get while blood hunting in high unrest provinces that says "the hunting has become difficult and dangerous"... but it isn't true. Nobody fights back.
But it's probably a little late to introduce this without throwing off blood hunting balance. Maybe for Dominions 3.
