[Spoilers] Old Human Tourist: Empress of Azteca

[Old Harry]

- We aren't far enough ahead in power to hold on to our gains easily
- Those gains won't be the whole of Azza's civ - we tried cripple and leave on Suttree and Ichabod in PB13 with less than perfect results

I played through an attack with a force of five Knights and a Mace in the south and three Knights, four Maces and eight HAs in the north. Against a similar level of defence that Azza has now (and C1 Holkans because I set Azza up as Ragnar of Maya in the sandbox ).

Due to the way his cities are laid out he's going to find reinforcing tricky and the culture gets swept away remarkably fast meaning it was way too easy. It helped that I gave myself Engineering just to play on easy mode (Boo-urns survives an extra turn if you don't have it). Spoilers for being imaginary wish fulfillment:

(note a bunch of forests disappear for no apparent reason - yay! worldbuilder!)


(note the funny Boo-urns corner culture that doesn't disappear until the turn rolls)




At this point healing up in this hill city with the GG medic we're guaranteed to have created already seems like a good option.

So perhaps we could attack earlier with just HAs, Longbows and Maces while we're on our way to Guilds, then the knights will arrive on the front just as we reach Mardoc's border...

Anyway, that's all still far in the future, at least ten turns or so.
