    Well, if you do you're in for a treat. No timetraveling space nazis or demonic hordes but Aztecs will invade your holdings in 13th century Europe in the upcoming Sunset Invasion DLC. Not wanting to wait to be butchered by the conquistadores the Aztecs take the lead and introduce human sacrifice, deadly plagues and presumably a few fat doomstacks.
    I really had something different in mind for a pagan expansion.

    From what the guys on the P'dox forums are saying, it's basically just re-using assets made for EU4. :lol:

    All the people getting indignant about this on the Paradox forums are worth so much more than $5. Thank you Paradox.

    This shit is extremely derp on so many levels. Why would the Aztecs waste men and resources conquering lands so far? There's no way an empire like the Aztec one could even maintain control of these lands, continue to supply their army, and develop boats capable of traversing the Atlantic in the first place. Not only that but the Mexico were a tributary to another power until the fifteenth century. The human sacrifice doesn't make any sense. The Aztecs never sacrificed the inhabitants of a conquered area against their will. Such actions would only have created rebellion. The only good thing to come out of this to possibly happen is making the Aztecs playable. That way there can be some lulzy lets plays involving an Aztec controlled Western Europe.

    There's actually several fantasy/alt-hist books about aztec empires being the initiators of first contact. I don't think i ever saw a invasion though.

    I'm aware of these scenarios. I still find it unbelievable that the aztecs could manufacture boats capable of traveling across the entire Atlantic Ocean and coming back in one piece. These scenarios are as likely as ancient Rome discovering the New World.
    Now here's the question: Who here will let's play this?

    I blame Quetzacoatl....anyway, this is just the prelude to the Dinosaur riding Nazis in the next HOI3 DLC.

    If they really wanted 'brown people' taking on the white man, it would make more sense having the African nations unite under Mali or some other major force and move north spreading their evil throughout Christian lands like they doing now. :troll:

    It's probably a tribute to all mesoamerican world conquests in EU3. But the thread on paradox forums is hilarious :)

    It would have been better if they had a pagan resurgence mod giving the opportunity to play pagan lords and possibly (with extreme difficulty, reconquer a bit of territory. They could give different religious options to transform the faith into something that could combat the spread of Christianity. Also random pagan specific events. It would be cool and wouldn't destroy verisimilitude as much as a random Aztec invasion

    Fuck let me handle it.

    I'm waiting for the one where you get abducted by aliens. You'll even get to meet characters from other historical periods who are frozen in stasis in their ship.

    I'm eagerly awaiting a Paradox game that is playable and balanced out of the box.











    Hah. What was I thinking?
