MA and Blood Economy Advice

The best use for sacrificedom is to extend the reach of a SC God. So take a domstr 10, awake Prince of Death (or you can take a Cyclops or a Wyrm or something but the PoD really is best.) Use your blood economy + sacrifice dom to push your dominion, whereupon your God becomes more or less unstopable.

The rate of conversion is very approximately 3 patrollers to one pt of *reliable* unrest reduction.

Blood-based troops are not all that special, actually - so for the first stage of the game you'll just want blood slaves to sacrifice. Each anathemant dragon wants 3 blood slaves per turn, so 2 warlocks blood hunting should be enough to keep half a dozen temples supplied, easy.

At a certain point you will want to scale up your blood economy hugely - same pattern applies, but you'll want hundreds and hundreds of militia and most of your warlocks. You should save your blood slaves for the high-level blood spells - summon all the devils and heliophagii and whatnot and start tricking them out with items.

First of all thanks. Unfortunately I don't understand how to do all of this - blood sacrificing extends the Dominion. So start giving priests blood slaves and they do this automatically, or is it an order? Will they get slaves out of the labratory?

10 dominion with an awake pretender, well that usually means some negative scales besides the 3 heat. Scale recommendations?

Do you reach a point of diminishing returns on the patrolling militia when upkeep costs are equal/greater than the gold you will save (or of no return aka your gold economy crashes and your upkeep exceeds your income)?

I've got a step by step blood hunting guide linked to in my sig. It's written for Mictlan, but most everything translates for any good blood nation.
