That sounds good. However, given that the Spaniards wiped out the Aztecs I'm not sure about how PC it is(?). Would the Spaniards also be armed with the common cold? Scott A (...) (25 years ago, 18-Nov-99, to lugnet.pirates)

A recent post about by Richard Marchetti gave me this idea ... it would be interesting if LEGO recycled the Spanish Armada from the pirate lego to make a Discovery theme, with the Spanish vs. the Aztecs. The Spaniards would have fleets and forts, (...) (25 years ago, 18-Nov-99, to lugnet.pirates)
