Default Revamped blood collection?

Now that the game's in release, can someone talk about how revamped blood collection works? I've rarely ever played blood nations because of the micromanagement and gave it a go last night. It wasn't so bad, but one thing I hated was that pooling virgins meant that you had to manually reassign virgins to each sacrificing priest who was in a temple that also had a lab. That's not so bad initially but when you have double-digit temples, it's a headache.

How does it work now?

Has it been revamped? I remember asking but I never got an answer.

One assumes (one PRAYS) that when they say reduced micromanagement, they mean blood as well.

And I seem to recall it being mentioned somewhere in an earlier thread as seeing a revamp.

I haven't heard of that change. I haven't checked blood nations yet, though. I'll test quickly.

One way micromanagement was reduced is auto-taxation. It can be turned on/off very easily. I doubt it anticipates what unrest the province will have next turn, so it mightn't help much.

Hasn't changed. I noticed this, though:



Only one message per province.

In my opinion, this problem make playing Mictlan really hard on large map. When you have to give blood slave to 30 priest(after a great use of virgin), 2 times... Argl...
