Xolotl Warrior
A unique cavalry unit only obtainable by Meso-American civilizations through converting an enemy Stable. Provides cavalry to civs that normally lack it.
Tactical Briefing
The Xolotl Warrior is a cavalry unit for civilizations that don't have cavalry! Aztecs, Mayans, and Incas can train these by converting an enemy Stable. With 100 HP, 10 attack, and good armor, they're solid all-around cavalry. They fill the hole in Meso civs' compositions when you manage to get that converted Stable. Class: Cavalry.

Strategic Analysis
The Xolotl Warrior is a **situational game-changer** for Meso civs. Normally lacking any cavalry, getting access to Xolotl Warriors completely changes your tactical options.
- Convert That Stable: Use Monks aggressively to convert an enemy Stable. Once you have it, you unlock Xolotl Warriors - something your opponent never expects from a Meso civ.
- Raiding Potential: Meso civs lack raiding units besides Eagle Warriors. Xolotl Warriors at 1.35 speed can raid villagers and escape before infantry arrives.
- Surprise Factor: Your opponent won't expect cavalry from Aztecs or Mayans. Xolotl Warriors catching Arbalesters off-guard can swing a game.
Warning: Getting a converted Stable is difficult and situational. Don't rely on this as a core strategy - it's an opportunistic bonus.
