I did my first game as Aztec, and it went relatively well-it's the 1640 and I embraced all the current institutions, being 20 years behind most European powers (instead of 200...)
Questions
1)Is this too slow ?
2)What ideas group should I pick in which order ? (I picked ''exploration'' for the first game, and it was clearly a bust-I'm not able to colonize two provinces at the time well until the 1500s.)
3)More specifically, what idea group should give me an edge against European powers (because, even with all of Mexico/Central America/large chunks of Southern US, I have barely 60 000 men)
