Upon the mortal wounding of his brother, Moctezuma II, Cuitláhuac took power. A cunning and ferocious warrior, he immediately set about visiting terrible retribution upon the Spanish invaders. On the night of July 1st, 1520, he oversaw a major Aztec victory, in which over 400 Spanish conquistadors and literally thousands of their Mesoamerican allies were slain by a vengeful Aztec army. So utter and terrible was the defeat that the Spanish called it La Noche Triste, the Night of Sorrow. Despite this victory, Cuitláhuac could not overcome the inevitable and, in October that year, Tenochtitlán came under siege. Disease proved to be the Aztec's undoing, with smallpox killing thousands of Aztecs, including Cuitláhuac himself. Use Cuitláhuac, restored to vigor, to heap vengeance and sorrow without end upon your opponents in the Anachronism arena. |
