Research condition
Available to Aztecs from the Fortress Age. Research it at Farm.
When to research
Cinteotl Worship can deliver up to 15 groups of Eagle Runner Knight before the 30-minute cap. Research early enough to receive more intervals, reserve population, and keep a safe rally point so the arrivals can join the army. Use the Farm for research. Research takes 10 seconds and costs 600 food, 500 wood.
The installment count rewards early timing
The Fortress Age research costs 600 Food and 500 Wood and takes ten seconds at a Farm. It supplies one Eagle Runner Knight for each two minutes of elapsed game time, up to 30 minutes. Research early enough to collect the timed installments; do not wait until the army is already under pressure. Reserve population for the arriving cavalry and keep it with a force that can protect it.
Timed Eagle Runner Knight stream
Cinteotl Worship grants one Eagle Runner Knight for each two-minute interval of game time, up to 30 minutes: at most fifteen timed units. The Aztec Fortress Age Farm research costs 600 Food and 500 Wood and takes ten seconds. This is a continuing military stream rather than an immediate group, so researching later leaves fewer awards before the 30-minute cap. The incoming Cavalry also needs population room and a force that can keep it from being isolated.
Compare it with the Food Ceremony
Cinteotl Worship and other Aztec timing technologies compete for resources and the player's research attention. Choose this option when the army benefits from gradual Cavalry reinforcement and the match will last long enough for several intervals. If a current attack needs units immediately, the delayed stream may not answer it. Protect the Farm and army route, and account for the 500 Wood cost as well as the Food payment when planning production.
