# Spillage

### Description

During a hunt, some of the blood is spilled, mainly because the vampire is not familiar with the territory they are hunting on.&#x20;

When hunting on owned territory, no blood is spilled, so vampires will collect the maximum rewards.\
\
When hunting on someone else's territory, approximately 40% of the blood collected will be spilled. 50% of the spilled blood can be claimed by the territory owners.\
\
When hunting on unclaimed territory, approximately 80% of the blood collected will be spilled. The blood spilled on unclaimed territory will be lost.

When hunting on the territory of a fellow Clan member, the spilled blood is split between the hunter and the territory owner.&#x20;

### The Hunt Structure

**The below image depicts the Filth Range of a Vampire that encompasses:**&#x20;

* 1 Owned territory - black shade hexagon
* 1 Other Player Owned territory - purple shade hexagon
* Unowned territory - the rest of the territory covered by the circle

**For the sake of calculations let's consider this example:**

* Territory owned by the player hunting represents 20% of the Filth Range circle
* Territory owned by other player represents 20% of the Filth Range circle
* Unowned territory represents 60% of the Filth Range circle

**For this example we will consider that the Vampire hunting will generate 100 Blood in rewards.** When calculating spillage, we get the following results:&#x20;

* 0% spillage for 20% of the rewards (as 1 territory is owned by the player) => 0 Blood spilled
* 40% spillage for 20% of the rewards (as 1 territory is owned by another player) => 8 Blood spilled
* 80% spillage for 60% of the rewards (as the rest is unowned) => 48 Blood spilled
* All of this results in a reward of **44 Blood (100 - 8 - 48)** for the hunt.

50% of the spillage on territories owned by players other than the player hunting is earned by the territory owners.
