Re: Mictlan Help
"Capture Slaves" is different from "Blood Hunt". That's for Mictlan commanders to gather worthless cannon fodder. I don't recommend it unless/until you have "Mass Protection" or something, or just want a few arrow decoys.
Anyway, different commanders gather different amounts - the Priest Kings are the most efficient (but too expensive to use like that). Basically, it scales with commander cost.

Re: Mictlan Help
Capture Slaves is for crating free units. They are worst than militia and are called slaves

Re: Mictlan Help
But the slaves are cheap (free with very low upkeep) and Mictlan often wants lots of patrollers...

Also, would taking a little Misfortune be terrible for any reason? Like, anything potentially crippling?

A lot of people only pick misfortune 2, not 3. I believe it is because there are some particularly bad events that you only get with misfortune 3.

Re: Mictlan Help
Also, with 2 you still have a 1% chance per turn of getting a hero. With 3, that chance drops to zero.

Re: Mictlan Help
Yeah, I know all about how "Blood Hunt" and "Capture slaves" are different, I was just curious because I can't seem to get a very good wall of fodder going with only three slaves per turn.
I think maybe I'll go for misfortune 1 for a slightly better chance for the heroes. or maybe I'll leave in neutral because I really want to see all of Mictlan's heroes. I've only seen Quetzacouatl so far.

Re: Mictlan Help
theres also mictopi or whatever his name is who is b3 d3 unholy 3 mage and some eagle warrior mage priest. 3 slaves is all you need for arrow fodder and slaves make poor melee fodder due to low morale (although throw in a fgew feathered warriors and its a bit better)

Sorry, I misread your question as about blood hunt.
The main things about capture slaves, don't waste priest kings time with it, and use forts with no temples or labs to spam tribal kings.
