To be fair Aztecs 2.0 is probably even worse than Aztecs, which is something.

Port's time at the top has been short-lived Indeed.

Is this because even though you need 33 vils to get 5 musk, you have had more res to be greedy in the meantime?

Ya ppl have been under rating inda for a while I think. They got the 700 wood and 700 gold crates. Especially if you're talking about the low hunt RE maps in the map pool.

I've only played 1 game with Port on the bugged DE, but I remember that the difference between RE and EP Port was massive when vills were 85f, and you even had -100f. It just snowballs so much, you can age 1 vill earlier if you don't have -100f, you can constantly train vills, you get better batches etc.

Aztec should be able to tame animals. That change is not right.

And how am I supposed to continue laming when the War Chief does not revive on the spot anymore? XD

Also the decrease in xp requirement for shipment, from 108 to 106% should help with both rush and eco.

On Florida they're #1 otherwise i'd put them below otto and swede, having the coin start just sucks.
