This will be a links page for posts on Aztecs, similar to Hunters All Their Lives for Mongols, Jihad for Saracens and Turks and Kagemusa for the Japanese.

I take requests. Anybody who can recommend an Aztec thread, please do so.

-------------------------

Aztec's Castle Age-- Went into a long discussion of the relative merits of Eagle Warriors and siege. Aztecs excel at both.

Aztecs vs Byzantines in imperial -- What's an Aztec to do when he's let a Byz player get away from him and get into Imperial? Besides learn hard lessons from the mistake. This is a popular topic. The thread was preceded days earlier by Aztec vs. Byzantine

Goths vs. Aztecs -- This thread answered its core question pretty quickly, then turned into a good debate on whether monks are useful or not.

viking or aztec champs? -- An outstanding thread that took up the question, How about the Japanese.?

Question about Aztecs? (dm and rm related) -- Much deathmatch stuff, but some decent random map points are made.

Aztec Klew -- The patch gave Aztecs more speed, making them quite comparable to the Mayans in this risky strategy. But can it work in time to fight the flush? Discussion turned toward a very fast siege rush for Aztecs and other civs.

Eagle Warriors -- Funny little post about the animation of eagles turns to serious discussion of the unit's merits.

Alternatives to the Huns? -- Not Aztec-specific, but very detailed and long.

Need some help with the Aztecs........ -- A couple of simple questions turn into a very nice discussion of the mysteries of Aztec food gathering, including Flank's force-drop minimization techniques on sheep, and my own "Two vill, no-mill" deer hunting suggestion.

Aztec Navy, underated. -- Nice post that shows the Aztecs would be overpowered on water if they had a decent array of ships.

I am looking for someone with unbelievably fast hands and amazing micro to help me develop a 2v2 strategy -- An intricate but fascinating strategy idea for an Aztec-Mongol team. Will probably be an expert's strategy even if it works, though. Still, raises the interesting possibility of an Aztec-Mongol team with the Mongol concentrating on scouts by using hunting food. Very promising.

Dropping deer meat at his gold/stone with twin towers. -- A very interesting trick where somebody towers up an opponent's gold, steals that gold by the handful for Castle transition and eagles, and collects 360 food at the same time.

Aztec Rax-first attack -- Bean Counter's interesting, very fast militia attack. Worked well against intermediate players, author says.

--------------------------

The impact of Wheelbarrow, Hand Cart, and the Aztec carry bonus on farming (Revised) -- Believe it or not, the benefit of the carrying bonus on farming was once in dispute. this post helped resolve that.
