Re: HINNOM EATS EVERYTHING
I didn't have time to run a test but I'm wondering... do the popeaters increase unrest where they are? It would feel weird if people searching some random virgin to sacrifice drive the people mad, but giants eating indiscriminately all the people just for fun don't.

Hinnom have the pop eating ritualized and under control with a blood cult, with people delivered to the Rephaim as they are God Kings with divine status. Sorta like offering food to the gods.

Baah, if so, Mictan would have "ritualized" the blood slaves centuries ago

Actually Mictlan has "ritualized" blood slaves centuries ago, but only at their central temple. You know, the site that produces 3 blood slaves per turn.

Re: HINNOM EATS EVERYTHING
Hinnom has the similar stuff at the city of Incest, Gomorrah.
2 Sites, Sodom and Gomorrah would fit their devilish, blood glut status...

Just an update to this thread, since many people still think Hinnom is over-powered. The cost of key troops has been increased in an official patch, as well as reducing the starting army and, indeed, now the pop-eating cause quite a bit of unrest!
This is discussed, IIRC, in another, newer short guide to Hinnom, which has yet to be linked to the strategy index.
Edit: The new Hinnom guide is here: http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/showthread.php?t=43369
