CAMPAIGN · THE CONQUERORS
Quetzalcoatl
Fight through dense forest between the Aztec base, Tlaxcala, and the Spanish. Captured horses can be exchanged for cavalry, while protecting Tabasco is an additional challenge.
Overview
Fight through dense forest between the Aztec base, Tlaxcala, and the Spanish. Captured horses can be exchanged for cavalry, while protecting Tabasco is an additional challenge.
Player approach
Quetzalcoatl begins with an unfinished wall and several narrow routes between the player, Tlaxcala, and the Spanish. Use towers and a Castle to protect the southern approaches, then advance north against the weaker priority target.
Step-by-step plan
Spend the starting stone on Watch Towers at the narrow mountain passes and a Castle south of the base rather than completing the wall around the Town Center. This protects nearby mines and lets the economy grow. Avoid the central passages blocked by terrain and Spanish Cannon Galleons; hold the south while pushing through the northern route toward Tlaxcala. Secure the mining areas by the lake and along the northern path before the final attack.
Risks and adjustments
The Spanish and Tlaxcalans can send siege through different passes, so keep the southern Castle defended while the main army advances north. Do not leave the mines exposed after moving the army away.
