Aztec: Eclipse

I. Seasonal Units

New Unit - 4-Star: Eagle Warriors

Background:

Among the most elite fighters of the Aztec Empire, the Eagle Warriors represent the sun itself. Because of this, they hold immense prestige within the army and bear the heavy burden of securing sacrifices for the sun. Trained from childhood, these living avatars of the eagle are thrown directly into the brutal reality of war. Only after successfully capturing four enemies do they earn the right to don their feathered raiment and fight for the sun. Spear-throwing is their specialty; they hurl javelins with divine precision to strike vital points, leaving the enemy nowhere to hide. In close combat, their obsidian blades tear through flesh and sever tendons, allowing them to drag foes away as captives. Eagle Warriors act as drillmasters in camp and lead from the front on the battlefield. In civic life, they enjoy privileges rivaling the nobility. Even after retiring from the front lines, they receive lavish treatment while serving as city guardians and peacekeepers, ready to repel any invader.

Unit Features:

• [Ritual War]: Captives are revered as "messengers to the gods." Capturing enemies alive to integrate them into your own forces is the ultimate way to crush enemy morale.

• [Obsidian Spear]: These razor-sharp obsidian blades tear through flesh. Any attack inflicts pain that causes the Slowed effect on enemies. Using offensive skills inflicts an additional Bleeding effect.

Skills:

• [Feathered Strike]
  Eagle feathers pierce the air as obsidian blades rain down to cut off all escape. The warriors leap and hurl their spears to cause a Knockdown, then Roll forward to thrust their weapons into the enemy.

• [Eagle Strike]
  Like eagles diving from the heavens, they tear into their prey with devastating force. The warriors leap and kick their spears forward for massive damage, followed by a downward slash that knocks back enemies in front of them.

• [Skyward]
  A prayer to the sun god. Divine light guides the eagles to hunt their prey. Gain a divine blessing that increases movement speed. While active, [Feathered Strike] additionally inflicts Slowed, and any kill reduces the Cooldown of [Feathered Strike].

New Unit - 4-Star: Jaguar Warriors

Background:

Unlike the Eagle Warriors, the Jaguar Warriors trace their origins to Tezcatlipoca, the "Smoking Mirror"—the chief god of obsidian, hostility, conflict, and jaguars. Their weapon, the Macuahuitl, perfectly embodies the god's omnipotence. This fearsome saw-sword, crafted from dense wood set with obsidian blades, can both bludgeon foes and slice repeatedly through flesh, leaving grisly wounds akin to a jaguar's bite. Once ensnared by a Macuahuitl, an enemy faces only doom—or perhaps glory. They are not simply killed, but slashed, knocked unconscious, captured, and ultimately sacrificed to the gods. Off the battlefield, Jaguar Warriors hold a special duty: participating in gladiatorial sacrifices. Only the most skilled captives are chosen as gladiators to fight several Jaguar Warriors to the death. Regardless of the victor, the duel itself is considered a sacred offering to the sun.

Unit Features:

• [Ritual War]: Captives are revered as "messengers to the gods." Capturing enemies and integrating them into your Unit is the best way to strike down your foes.

• [Macuahuitl]: The gleam of obsidian brings endless bloodshed. Enemies struck by Macuahuitl skills will instantly suffer massive Bleeding damage if hit by a Normal Attack shortly after.

Skills:

• [Jaguar Claw]
  The jaguar pounces. Leap to a designated area, smash the ground to Knockdown enemies in an area of effect, and follow up with a brutal Macuahuitl strike to the head.

• [Obsidian Fang]
  Answering the call of the night, the Jaguar Warriors relentlessly swing their Macuahuitl. Like the fangs of the night god, they tear through the enemy formation, leaving a trail of blood in their wake.

New Unit - 5-Star: Shorn Ones

Background:

In the Aztec Empire's foreign conquests, the Shorn Ones serve as the vanguard—and their appearance is just as striking as their duty. True to their name, their heads are completely shaved save for a single braid. Their faces are painted half blue and half yellow, representing the dual aspects of Huitzilopochtli as the god of war and the sun. Carrying towering banners adorned with divine effigies on their backs, they march onto the battlefield like moving idols. To become one of the Shorn Ones, a warrior must not only capture at least six enemies but also survive a series of agonizing trials. Yet, for these born fighters, the glory is worth every drop of blood. They can wield a massive Macuahuitl single-handedly—a weapon that regular soldiers struggle to hold with two—unleashing devastating strikes upon their foes. Standing at the absolute pinnacle of martial prowess, the Shorn Ones care little for the lives of their enemies, or even their own. They are consumed by a singular focus: to demonstrate their absolute loyalty, courage, and zeal to the gods through unending slaughter.

Unit Features:

• [Perfect Sacrifice]: A glorious death is the ultimate offering to the sun, inspiring fellow Shorn Ones to fight to the bitter end. Every allied unit that falls increases the entire team's damage.

• [Serrated Macuahuitl]: Sharp obsidian effortlessly shreds the target's flesh to inflict Bleeding damage. However, the brittle stone shatters easily, requiring constant honing and replacement. The weapon's massive wooden core also deals significant Blunt Damage.

Skills:

• [Blood Sacrifice]
  Charge at the target. Frontline soldiers raise their shields to absorb damage. Upon closing the distance, the vanguard will Knockdown and control the target, while the rear rank quickly follows up with brutal strikes to capitalize on the opening.

• [Solar Storm]
  Some soldiers raise shields to defend. Upon taking a hit, they counterattack with their greatswords, dealing massive Block-breaking damage.
• Other soldiers follow the defenders, launching immediate area-of-effect attacks that cause a Knockdown.

• [Blade of No Return]
  While active, continuously restores weapon sharpness and health.

2. [Campaigns] Unit Mechanics Optimization:

This season, we have adjusted the unit deployment restrictions in [Campaigns]. The changes are as follows:

Previous Rules:
