Hmm, I don't remember exact formula from the top of my head, but I though that unrest generated by bloodhunters is independent of province population. I remeber for sure that the number of slaves gathered are certanly independent of population, as long as it larger than 5000. Are you saying it is not so?

The number of slaves is, indeed, independent of the population, as long as it is greater than 5K. The unrest generated, and therefore, kills by patrolling, are also independent of the population.

However, the population replenishment rate is NOT independent of the population: It is a percentage of the existing population that depends on your level of Growth scale. Obviously, if you are not hunting under growth scale, savaging the province with patrolled hunting is either a cost of business, or not acceptable, and therefore not done, in which case you should not hunt such provinces since you'd have to drop taxes.

That's what I thought.
