The third and last WarChief’s civilization was featured recently on the front page of IGN. The Aztecs are a dilemma for me. They are a strong economic civ, which I usually prefer, and they have maybe the coolest looking units and architecture in the game. But because they have foot soldiers only and no cavalry or artillery, I find them the most difficult to play. Playing the Aztecs well requires being able to first recognize quickly on screen the different types of Aztec units and what they do well, and then organize and employ them to take advantage of their strengths. It will be interesting to see how top players do with them after the game is published.
Warchiefs looks like it will breathe some new life into Age of Empires III by offering a different perspective. Players will no longer necessarily be battling to conquer the new world. With Native American tribes, they will have a chance to defend it. The Native American tribes look distinct enough from the European factions to stand out and offer some diverse gameplay while preserving feel of AOE3. Where they were pretty much backdrop NPC's in the original game, they are now living and playable. The developers, Ensemble Studios, seem to be on the right track with Warchiefs, and we're looking forward to seeing how the other Native American tribes fit in to the big picture.
