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.

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

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.

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.

Ahh, thanks for the advice. I was using my Priest kings for it.

thats a complete waste of a valuable mage..... you have much to learn.

What exactly are the priest kings good at? I found myself only using them to craft Rings of Regeneration and Jade Knives. I had my High Priests of the Sun commanding my armies. Is there something I'm missing with the Priest kings?
