I think Mictlan has the biggest advantage here since they have so many different varieties of blood priests, and thus have the most units capable of bloodhunting, if you can only have one of each of them.

I think this is still incredibly silly, though.

With idependants and leadership items, I cerainly don't think it is unplayable. A challenge, true, but that's the point.

Hmmm did not think about that. True enough! But with 5 preists Mictlan could probably get a decent amount flowing however they will have a big problem with leaders.

Very silly. Still interested to see how it works out!

After further thought, it seems without the gold being used on mages, and limited leadership for troops, the main gold outlet will end up being forts. To counter this somewhat, I was thinking of requiring fortified cities. What are the other player's opinions on this?
