Aztecs too strong?

[ep1kfail]

On my most current play through in westeros, I was excited to see the aztecs were invading. Something I hoped the seven kingdoms would band up and fight against. Instead what we get is 300k aztecs all in the westerlands. We never even get a chance to fight against them. By time even some of our armies start to gather all the event troops have already instantly sieged cities taking pretty minimal losses, giving a -100 warscore. It would be one thing if we could actually fight them, but every war, there has not been a chance. I have been playing about 75 years or so after the invasion, and in the past 20 I have had to resort to console command imprisoning the aztec emperor just to survive wars.

these are just his event troops. He can only raise about 25k in levies.

My main problem with the aztec invasion ( in this mod and the game in general ) is that its a 200k+ doomstack that is immune to attrition,doesnt cost anything to maintain ( at least not that i've noticed ), and doesnt prevent the aztecs from starting more wars much like retinues. I have yet to find a reason to use the aztec invasion dlc, and it is to this day the only dlc for CK2 i regret buying.

In my experience the Aztecs crumble naught but 50 years after they take the iron throne however in my games i make a point of assassinating all the aztec dragon riders as soon as i can. My biggest problem with them comes with all the damn dragons they get, after just 100 years the aztec dragon dynasty is 50 strong now everybody has got a dragon talk about uncool
