A very fun Civ design, and I'm glad Firaxis had the Mapuche military design allude to the Mapuche adaptation to Spanish tactics and arms (after the Battle of Tucapel, Lautaro stuck the Spanish governor with a lance (the irony) and may have eaten the governor's forearms or beating heart).
Unfortunate that the horse unique unit isn't more interesting gameplay wise (i.e. Slightly increased reduction of enemy loyalty upon kills). Also, why does it have a ridiculous top hat looking thing? XD
Along with Mongolia, the Mapuche have the Civ/leader design I like most so far in this expansion. The others seem dull (e.g. Korea), too disparate to be historically thematic in a meaningfully synergistic way (e.g. Scotland), or too similar to existing Civ leaders (e.g. Chandragupta).
