I watched the rec and can give some pointers:
- get firepit up asap, WP can be dancing sub 1 min each time
- you got housed a lot, causing delay through-out the whole game and it even costed u a WP. Try getting some houses up during transition to II
- stay off my treasures you thief! j/k ;)
- use 700 wood card instead of 600
- add 3 TP card in a deck for maps like this one, its a great eco boost
- you must have the coyote combat card in each deck, without they are very average units imo, the stealth card is not so great to fill up an age II slot
- use diff control groups for your units, i had the impression they were all together, microing will be easier too.
- try not to deal the final blow with your WC when treaure hunting, its easy free XP you're throwing away.

overall i think you're a really good player (idle vil graph was 10x better than mine), you just need to play aztecs more, i think they are the most difficult civ on macro level tbh.

just viewed , gg to both u guys

things id like to point out :

) you have improved significantly with your Aztecs ckei :) since this game with chaos and the few 1v1s we did yesterday you have now begun to take advantage of trade routes and semi ffs

) in this game i noticed that when you hit age 2 you had a shortage of wood from sending 3 priests first and were housed a few times , try the 700 wood card instead - that way you can use it for market ups+houses+2nd warhut if needed , and also for water maps such as patagonia the extra kick of schooners+700 wood will jump start your early eco significantly

) during the last battle of this replay i noticed you had massed a big stockpile of food+gold with which you could have used to age to fortress or mass more puma , in which case a 2nd warhut would have helped you out a lot. ( i stockpile resources in sum games i play as well , i know its a tricky thing to try to avoid in a heated game for i do this very same problem a lot as well - just something we have to try and avoid )

other then these small things , chaos's summed it up perfectly. give your aztecs a few more weeks of practice to get the proper feel and groove of this civ and all these minor problems will be a thing of the past
