Tips for finding blood slaves appreciated here

[Norfleet]

Also, it should be noted that while Mictlan priests can be used to hunt for slaves, this is generally considered somewhat more expensive and only justifiable in well-patrolled provinces: The more successful a blood hunt is, the more the population seems to get annoyed. One way to rake in the blood slaves is to strew any province with > 5K people with a scout or two hunting, and take the taxes down to maybe 70-80: The fact that the individual scout doesn't hunt all that effectively will mean that the unrest level won't get overly high even without a patrol in place, but the fact that you have so MANY scouts hunting everywhere will give you a good income stream.

Also, scouts are cheap and can even be produced in provinces without fortresses and temples. $20 can net you a fast blood hunter right there. Scouts are just so useful, for anything from the baggage train of an army to cheap blood hunters to stick in podunk provinces.
