Are we all Krogan now?
I can't be the only one who thinks killing hundreds of Milky-way homies is starting to put a dent in the gene pool. What would you guess the total population of exiled to be to begin with? Is the Nex...

I'd guess the Nexus population pre-revolt was probably somewhere in the range of 1500-2000 people, with barely enough supplies for only a few months. Construction, station security, medical, and administration primarily, with most of the rebellion being construction and station security. The Krogan complement probably wasn't particularly sizable, but with Krogan it doesn't necessarily have to be, so long as the Krogan are central to any choke point. We can reasonably assume a third of the station population, plus the Krogan, didn't rebel, so even with numbers on their side the resultant exiles still would've lost.
I'd guess the total population of exiled would be in the 700-900 range. Pile on another 90-150 Krogan who left for Elaaden after Spender and Tann * 'em over. With about a third of the population, if this is the point where they attempted colonization of Eos on their own, they then lose another 5-10% to Eos, 80% go back into cryo, and a skeleton crew of administrators, a core science/medical team, security (who form the station militia) and construction are barely able to keep things from completely falling apart for a year before the Hyperion shows up.
Note I'm assuming roughly a 20% casualty rate for the rebels assuming a broken command structure and an "every man for himself" attitude versus a 10% casualty rate for the loyalists, due to the participation of the Krogan, and the loyalist militia being composed mostly of Turians (where we're assuming they're nearly all ex-military).
And yeah, this is all wild mass-guessing on my part.

Well my first PT I killed under 2000 enemies total, that is including kett and creatures. So it may feel as if you are killing a lot but its probably not as much as you think in a single pt, even with respawns. Admittedly I did miss some quests that time (80%ish complete). Even so the total of outlaws killed wasn't that much- it just feels like it 😃
There is also a lot of angara mixed in with the outlaws too. So that lowers it even further.
No MP becaus3 i dont do MP just a straight play of the game.
After three PTs,I don't recall killing many humans.
SpoilerThe second PT taught me a valuable lesson between choosing Pathfinders over Krogans. Do not want any more exalted Krogans thank you very much. lolYeah, that was pretty much the one reason why I chose Drack's team (and not simply because I took Drack with me on that mission 😉) - either we lose the Salarian Pathfinder, who will die of old age in 20-30 years anyway, or we lose a bunch of Krogan that then get exalted and I end up with Drack pissed off at me.
It's not much of a choice. Most of the major ones I take a few seconds to think about. Not this one. That Salarian was a dead frog walking before the dialogue finished. 😛

According to the prequel novel, it was closer to 1000 people pre-revolt.

Okay, so I've personally made survival of the species that much harder.... 😉 1091 Outlaws defeated (so far) http://imgur.com/GnGpbH9
