Xopilli Atl-Atls are the Aztec unique Light Infantry of the Medieval Age that replaces the standard Elite Javelineers.

Overview

Compared to Elite Javelineers, Xopilli Atl-Atls have +10 hit points and +3 movement speed. This makes Xopilli Atl-Atls more capable raiders, having the extra speed and resilience to disengage from combat successfully if the battle is at their disadvantage, or sustain hit-and-run tactics for longer before requiring recovery. This also means they are more effective against Foot Archers, needing less time to close in to attack them and resisting more hits in the process.

Trivia

• Xopilli means "claw" in Nahuatl.
