Default Re: Mictlan Pretenders ideas request

Mictlan can clamhoard quite well as well .

I would suggest an SC pretender , a ghostking or a VQ .

Ghostking :
Order 3 , Heat 1 , Sloth 3 , Death 1 , Misfortune 2 , Magic 3 .
Castle Watchtower , Dominion 7 .

A2 F2 W2 N2 E4 D4 S4 .

In the first 20-30 turns your ghostking expands + sitesearches . This way after 20-30 turns you will have about 10-12 (almost) fully searched provinces .

With E4 you only need one pair of boots of earth to have the option to cast Forge of the Ancients when you were lucky with finding earth sites .
After the first 20-30 turns when his searching duty is over your Ghostking will become a forger/caster till the end of the game .
I normally forge first about 10-15 hammers .
Besides blood + construction try to get conjuration 6 or even 7 quickly .
Conjuration 5 gives you the possibility to accashic , Con 6 gives you the spectres and con 7 gives you additional Deathcasters + the imo great ivy kings .

Only small drawback is imo that you probably need to empower a deathmage in blood to get vampire lords .

Focus mainly on hoarding . In lategame you can then boost your bloodincome with wishing for blood and kill everything .


The main weakness of Mictlan is imo their lack of combat mages . And the only non-capitol only mage is the B - priest which is for nothing else useful than bloodhunting + bloodsacrificing .
