Aztecs (Age of Empires III)

The Aztecs are one of the 3 Civilizations added in the The WarChiefs expansion pack. Most of their military units are unique to them, with the exception of Canoes and War canoes. All of the Aztec army is composed of infantry. They can build the Noble's Hut which acts as a Blockhouse or a War Hut but with much longer range.

Like in Age of Empires II: The Conquerors the Aztecs lack Cavalry units and the artillery units that other native civilizations have access to. To make up for this the Aztec also have specialized infantry units that fulfil similar roles. The Arrow Knight, who's range is the best of all archers, is specially designed to tear down buildings and the Coyote Runner makes up for their lack of Cavalry.

Instead of Medicine Man, the Aztec's have Warrior Priests who can heal just as well as the Medicine Man, but also have a high attack, and dance at the Fire Pit, counting as two Villagers.

At the beginning of the match the Aztecs have uncovered the locations of all Trading Posts.
