Mexican civilization should be prohibited from receiving livestock support from its allies in team based treaty games
The economy of the Mexican civilization is very strong in the treaty games. Receiving livestock support from allies in team based treaty games makes this civilization’s economy inexhaustible. Therefore, the Mexican civilization should be strictly prohibited from receiving livestock support from its allies in team based treaty games. In this way, the economy of the Mexican civilization could become more balanced in team based treaty games.
Does it really matter? The age 4 card that Mexico has allows to over pop with cattle regardless if there team can make some extra for them.
I get where you’re coming from, but I don’t like the idea of the arbitrary rules.
Mexico needs targeted nerfs for treaty to their military and natives. I might also suggest that the resource generation rate of sheep could be nerfed a bit. Mexico can’t train sheep, so this would somewhat achieve what you’re suggesting.
The issue with your suggestion, in addition to the arbitrariness which adds unnecessary complexity, it would be a pretty small nerf. It likely also wouldn’t solve the issue since the sheep don’t add much as is. It’s a rather small nerf.
The issue is the civ trait as a whole. How it is even possible that a mex player just spamming chinacos and soldados doesnt get drained? Same for Maya units.
Then there are cheesy strats like the explorer training soldados AND building hospitals to train more of them.
Not enough? They get natives units as strong as main civs ones. Also they get 2x HP factories for an already easy to defend economy
Also, the wood to coin card. Everyone knows that well, wood is the slowest resource so it is ok. WHATS THE POINT IF MEXICO GETS A RIDIOCOULOUS GATHER RATE FOR WOOD (among the fastests if not the most)

I once watched a Lionheart vid where one player went Aztecs and spammed warriors and won pretty easily. Civs with bonuses like that really need to receive some nerfs.
