In the game's words
How to use it
The Aztec War Chief is an infantry unit with a big attack, a lot of hitpoints, and no range. Because the Aztec War Chief does damage in melee combat, he is vulnerable to ranged attacks as he moves in close. The primary bonus for the War Chief is that all units near him earn extra Experience Points for kills. Like Explorers, the War Chief has a good line of sight and can collect Treasures and build Trading Posts. If a War Chief falls in a fight, he collapses and has to generate enough hitpoints to be recovered by allies. A fallen War Chief can also be returned to the Community Plaza by doing the War Ceremony.
History
The most densely populated region of the New World in 1492 was Mesoamerica, the region where North and Central America meet. Among the people living there were the Aztecs (also known as Mexica or Tenocha); they built a complex civilization centered around their great city of Tenochtitlan (modern Mexico City). This was one of the largest cities in the world (with an estimated population of 200,000) and arguably more beautiful and cleaner than most contemporary European capitals. In Aztec society, membership in the calpulli established each individual's religious and secular schooling, as well as how they would be trained in warfare. The men of a calpulli served together in battle and on the numerous public works projects. Their soldiers wielded weapons of wood and stone, and they often sought prisoners to be sacrificed in religious ceremonies.
