Expansion pack 2: ¿American civilization?

[D4RKBL4D3]

For me the best would be a faction based on Aztec, Mayan and Inca civilizations and in the distant future they should think about something else.

the second expansion pack wont be a new pantheon but a 4th god for either eggy or greek

will be a year or two before we see a new pantheon

chinese come with 4 gods, norse have 4 gods now, eggy or greek will get 4th before atty

thats the 2nd dlc we are getting from premium

In the store you have clear description - second will be with new pantheon as well.

(2) Upcoming Expansions: Prepare to embark on new epic sagas yet untold with two yet to be revealed and highly anticipated upcoming expansions. * 
Expansion 1:  All-New Chinese pantheon expansion
Expansion 2:  additional new pantheon expansion

I believe Aztec is a great choise. Mb Indian mythology as well?

i think its just the 4th gods for other civs, and we wont get like new civilizational pantheon till a year from now

but its cool to fantasize about it ig

Indian mythology is more likely than Aztec mythology to come as the second pantheon civ, but Aztec mythology cannot be ruled out entirely. Aztec/Mayan mythology might get added eventually, but I am not so sure about that for expansion 2. Another reason why is because China and India are both based on Asia. Japan mythology could potentially be factored in as well for a Pantheon civ, but I would be surprised if they get added before the Indians and Japanese deities would need to specifically stand out as being different as well from Chinese deities with at least three major gods/goddesses.

Look, All I'm saying is that a quetzalcoatl titan would be pretty cool

The same could also be said for an Indian titan from Asia being pretty cool as an alternative to a titan from Mexico (Aztecs/Mayans) or Central America (Mayans). However, since premium is only adding one additional pantheon besides Chinese it cannot include both Mayans and Aztecs. It might make more sense to sell Mayans and Aztecs together rather than sell them separately.

Contrary to AoE III: DE the Mayans cannot be ruled out entirely, but Mayans similar to Aztecs would need to have at least three major gods/goddesses. Another reason for including Mayan and Aztecs as being sold together instead of sold separately is because a new campaign could potentially include both civ deities competing against each other instead of it being based on only just Aztecs vs Aztecs if they get a campaign. Also, Mayans are geographically closer to Aztecs than Incas. My conclusion is that this premium dlc adding Indians seems to make more sense than Aztecs because I think that Aztecs and Mayans should be sold together instead of sold separately.

It's hard to believe that someone spent their time writing such nonsense. I hope it's just sarcasm or our old enemy eurocentrism. Because if you're serious.......
You don't even know the basics of the basics of the Aztecs, Mayans and Incas.

There are hundreds of cultures, with hundreds of gods. Without even stopping to look, I can already think of two MU already, the Hopi ant men and the thunderbird.

Aztecs and Mayans are nothing like the Egyptians, they are not the same just because all three had pyramids, which, by the way, are completely different and have completely different functions. A Macuahuilt is nothing like a Kopesh, one lived in the desert the other two in the jungle.

Knowing Age of Empires, it's very likely that we'll see a meso-american civilization. I don't think we'll see one from North America, but the Aztec/Inca/Maya are all likely. However, we have multiple possibilities in the Celts, Hindi's, African, Japanese, and ancient Mesopotamia as well. So it's not impossible but there's also no reason to think it will happen.
