Re: Q about blessings
Blood hunting is almost always worth it if you have national blood mages. With Big N, it isn't quite the same as Mictlan. The Big N blood mage is 250 gold vs. 90 gold for Mictlan's little guy. Which means blood hunting is less economical and should be saved for later when you've already got some providences and a steady research going.
In general, the cost of Neifle's mages is a pretty big weakness and almost mandates building skull mentors.
As for research priorities, Construction, Alteration and Evocation. Probably also Conjuration for site searching. Construction-4 will let you deck out thugs and build skull mentors. Alteration is for Quicken self, Wolver Winter, and Soul Drain. Evocation is almost necessary to accompany your normal giant armies. Giants serve much better as damage absorvers then damage dealers and evocation spells like falling frosts are necessary to use them effectively.
