If They Add an Aztecan Hero

[Mac Tonight]

If they add an Aztec Hero, who would it fit? I'd assume Vikings?

[Shard of Manus]

None.

Knights/Vikings. They don't really fit into either though.

I'd go with Vikings because of the 'Old Gods' theme.

Why would they add an Aztec hero in the first place?Not that I would mind but if the game is about vikings samurais and knights I'd rather we keep it like that.Adding heroes that aren't strongly connected with the faction is fine,but aztecs have absolutely nothing to do with vikings.

No but then again Romans weren't exactly knights either, and the highlander is Scottish not Norse.

Unless For Honor wants to really spice things up and add an entire 4th faction of Mesoamerica. They probably have spears, shields, and small clubs with blowpipes as a feat, but really doubt it. Can't think of 4+ types of character warriors to derive from them.

At the same time, the Romans were the ones who paved the foundations of Knights becoming a thing. Highlander is an exception because it's stated that they joined the Viking's out of obligation rather than as an actual faction decision.

Yeah that's true. I doubt Ubisoft are going for any sort of historical accuracy so I personally wouldn't mind if they stretched the themes a little.

Though if they were sticking to the Knights, Vikings, Samurai thing they do have so much to draw from I doubt they'd be so desperate for ideas they'd include Aztec warriors.

Knights has a Roman Soldier and a Gladiator...
Vikings have a Scottish Warrior.

[Man of the Milk]

Aztecs themselves could only be a faction of 4, even then you'll have heros that mimics the loadout of Valk and something simular to peacekeeper.

1. Romans were basically the foundations for creating knights
2. Gladiators played a part in Roman society to control the masses, in other words, they too were pillars for creating the feudal Knight faction.
3. Highlander joined out of obligation, not strictly because he's a Viking

True but Norse, Scandinavian, Scottish, and Celtics people have a lot of grassroots together.

How about a Conqistador? I mean, when this game first came out, I was hoping they'll make a Gladiator and I'm happy they did. So, what's close to an Aztec or Mayan that can be added?
