Yes! Aztecs finally, thank you.

 

[Aldrahill]

Oh my God, Aztecs! I knew it! Thank god, no more generic, crappy NIs!

That Land Morale bonus, and the manpower! Hello Sunset Invasion

I'm guessing they're good NIs considering MesoAmerica is being broken up.

 

[Sukramo]

Atlast!

 

[in heaven]

Yay!

 

[Xinkc]

Nice to see. I hope that this isn't the last nation that starts with an "A" that gets unique national ideas. I have high hopes for Air.

 

[lordelenath]

I really like the new NIs, but what's which those -10% WE-Cost? That is just so underwhelming.

Maybe War Exhaustion will accumulate more and/or be more punitive...

 

[lucaluca]

[tom025]

Thank you for have added Aztecs NI

What is better: sunset invasion or the new aztec ideas?

Sunset one has 10% discipline and -5% tech, obviously vastly superior.
New one is mediocre.

 

[Arjik]

YES! Finally, doing the Sunset Invasion will be much more interesting!

I dont know how big is the start empire with sunset invasion but with invade of the white skin i dont need exploration for terra inkognito. But can expansion with one colonist compensate exploration with two colonist? Invade the Whiteskins need 9 points. So i need admintech 7 for two techgroupideas. Quest for the New World give 2 points for nat. ideas and i need only admintech 4. So it come early and low budget at mightpoints.

 

[CzokletMuss]

Question to Johan: in exported CK2 save with "Sunset Invasion" DLC turned on, will Aztecs still get their (old) High American ideas?

 

[Zak Preston]

my favorite native American nation =))

 

[Galu]

These threads seems to disappear pretty quickly from the first page, maybe devs should think about one sticky post with list with all released Nis so far and update it as the list grow bigger ?

 

[Vordeo]

Great to see the Aztecs finally getting some love.

NIs look decent, though it's a bit hard to tell just how good they are as a lot of rebalancing appears to be taking place. Honestly the main question for me at the moment is whether or not countries that already have NIs are going to get them rebalanced.
