Thanks for linking to those, Endie -- those were among the sources I wanted to link to in my earlier post.

Related to this, I did just think of another solution Aslan authorities might have to all these ihatei on their high-pop worlds. This is where Claw-ton Heston is dragged away roaring, "Soylent Green is ihatei!"

I took Geir's calculation as essentially adding a generational aspect by spreading Garnfellow's values over 30 years of activity. Following Garnfellow and Geir with 90% drop-offs (so 300 'ihatei' per million), 7 trillion Aslan might generate roughly 2.1 billion 'ihatei' (which includes some...

That's all fair. I just like to work things out from known numbers where I can before I start altering things in the campaign.

Garnfellow gives some numbers in the 'Clans of the Aslan - has just arrived!' thread, based on calculations at their blog. They get 10.852 million ihatei out of a clan of 186 million (or 5.83%). (Going by their figures, I think 27.8% of these are from landed families? Also, Garnfellow notes...

Yep, that's more in line with what I'm reading so far. Ihatei (in the narrow sense) aren't clanless, but the leaders of their clan don't have to back them up if they don't want to. If an ihatei bites off more than he can chew, that's tough luck for him, and not the clan leaders' problem, right?

Though Drinax Book 2 is also saying the ihatei aren't entirely distinct from their clans. And Tyokh is practically next door. A small fraction of twenty billion is still a lot! :)

Fair enough. It just seems a bit odd given how the books are describing the ihatei so far.

New to the forums, so I hope this is the right place to ask -- is it explained somewhere in the Drinax campaign why the Aslan didn't conquer Asim and the rest of the Drinax chain when they destroyed the former Kingdom?
