As Pacal II had heard, the people to the north of Maya in Mexico had banded together and formed the Aztec Triple Alliance. In case they wanted to be peaceful, Pacal gave them a gift of 30 gold, and that made Montezuma open their borders to Mayan traders. Pacal thought the relationship between Maya and Aztec was off to a good start.

Also, Uxmal had finished building the Great Cothon, and started building a temple to Kukulkan so they could have better protection of their cities in case something attacked. Pacal also got news from the scout up north that they see a pride of lions near them in the land that is quite north and cold.

Spoiler :


An artist was discovered to be born in Uxmal named Cipactli. Cipactli made great works of art and stories that would make the locals of Uxmal very happy, and helped the culture of that city flourish. After the royal advisers of Pacal II gave him news of this man, Pacal told Cipactli to stay and settle in Uxmal to bring commerce, culture, and happiness to the city.

Also, the scouts up north won a victory against the lions. Pacal was proud of these scouts, and after all these victories, deemed them the 'Invincibles'.

Spoiler :


As Mayan scientists had finished mastering Theology, and completely reforming the religious sector, Mayan historians deemed themselves in a new age, which they called the Midevil Age.

In this new Midevil Age, everything from mines to buildings were reformed into a new style. Pacal II didn't know what to think of this, but he accepted it, and embraced a new age of science and technology that the Mayans had reached.

Spoiler :


As it turned out, the scout couldn't get through a native village to meet Inca, but a trireme made in Mayapan was able to meet these Incans. The Incans liked the Mayans enough from the start to open their borders, but wouldn't trade the secret of money and currency, just like the Aztecs.

At least Maya had neighbors, Pacal II thought. Pacal, fearing odd beasts from the sea, moved the trireme back from Inca to the east of Maya in case anything comes from that sea.

Spoiler :


The people in Yax Mutal also finished building a Colossus, and this made the traders on the coast want to work harder, so the commerce gathered by working the coast increased, and so did the Mayan economy. Pacal was happy he was able to do that, and with a rising economy, he took much of the gold Maya had gathered, and upgraded the warriors protecting the cities to holkans.

He also started taking defensive measures and built barracks and walls in Mayapan, and trained a holkan. Pacal was preparing for something, but he didn't know what.

MS Decision!

Spoiler :
We're preparing for something to happen, but what?

1) Continue our beeline to learning how to make 'Gunpowder', but stop building walls and barracks in cities, and focus on culture and economy
2) Quit our beeline to gunpowder, and go back to our old path on science of whatever took the shortest time, and focus on culture and economy
3) Continue our beeline to gunpowder, and declare war on Aztec with our troops gathered on the border, and at least take Tenochitlan, and see if we can reach peace after that
4) Quit our beeline to gunpowder, and build wonders in all of our cities to spread our culture and improve the lives of our citizens. Who needs war when you can keep the peace?

Yay! Screw dose theoretical white people with facial hair :mischief: We need to make sure we either decimate any raiding party they send quickly or load up on defenders because disease will destroy us. I am glad they changed the plague in RFC DOC that it only brings units to half health but it still is a huge blow.
 
The only ugly mustache is The French's. I love the Vikings and Dutch. The Dutch are so elegant and fancy with it :D I also said that because native Americans have no facial or body hair and those lucky bastards never go bald :lol:

Pacal's people had had enough with their northern neighbor, the Aztec, and were calling for war. Pacal had already set up many troops on their border with each other, so he did what the people wished and declared war on the Aztec. He had trained a few catapults and a good few holkans to take Tenochitlan.

Spoiler :


Pacal II had easily taken the weakly defended Aztec capital, and only lost one division of holkans against their archers. He had also pillaged a great deal of gold from the townsfolk and wealthy people who supported the Aztecs.

Pacal then ordered a new governor take the city, and add another city to the Mayan empire.

Spoiler :


But Pacal wasn't done there. He got bloodthirsty, and took another loosely defended Aztec city from the grip of Montezuma the Sacrificer. This city did not yield as much gold as the capital, but gold is gold.

Pacal then ordered another new governor take the city, and Maya continued stretching up north. Pacal II then came to a solution for himself. He would take the last Aztec city, and wipe their evil civilization off the face of the earth, in turn for Mayan leadership.

Spoiler :


Pacal then took the final Aztec city. Pacal laughed in his palace maniacally until he was finally calmed by his advisers. He then became melancholy, and thought about what he had done. He had killed many people, and taken their gold. Either way, what was done was done.

Pacal, to calm his people who were also cheering for their victory, ordered Montezuma, who was captured in their latest conquest, be publicly executed in front of the populace in Yax Mutal.

Spoiler :


Pacal II then saw his science budget falling, and he ended up having to lower it to 60% so that he could keep his treasury of gold that which he had accumulated over the time of the Mayan kingdom.

In order to fix this, Pacal ordered the building of a Great Lighthouse in Yax Mutal that would boost trade in coastal tiles. These extra trade routes would do a great deal in helping the economy, and hopefully enough for Pacal to raise the science back up to 70%.

MS Decision!​

Spoiler :
We've won our war against the Aztec, and we need direction

1) Continue the building of the GL in Yax Mutal, and train archers in each of our new cities, and then build pagan temples to boost happiness
2) Continue the building of the GL in Yax Mutal, cancel archers in our new cities in favor of holkans, and then build things in our cities to help boost our economy
3) Cancel the building of the GL in Yax Mutal, and focus on building things in favor of culture and economy. I mean, there isn't much difference between 60% and 70% right?
