Hmm... I'm not sure what that means... the only undead aztecs I can think of would be those in Black and White 2, but I don't see how that is even remotely related to the subject... and the Necrons in WH40K are clearly aztek inspired and often rather... undead, but I feel that I'm shying away from the issue now.

I recommend that all the underage kids leave now, as there will soon be blood and guts flying around.

the good thing is that most french people seem unable to speak (and especially, write) french correctly, so they shouldn't notice too much if you are unable as well

Why don't you learn both French and German?

You mean to say that they are not? While I can hardly say that they are direct rip offs, solely and directly inspired by aztec society and architecture I do think that nobody could deny that they share some similarities... unless you want to claim that they are solely incan or something, I guess.
Regardless, I am no closer to understand your reply to my first post. Care to explain?

Umm, the Necrons have never taken much influence from Mesoamerican cultures, their primary inspiration has always been Egypt and to a lesser extent, Babylon

The only notable connections would be the use of pyramid shapes which has been pretty widespread, and certain symbolism's.

Yadda, yadda... How about we get back on what is possibly on topic, because I still don't understand that quote below, though I've been suspecting trolling all allong I thought it could be percieved to be rude to just call it out in case that wasn't actually the case, but now you seem to disregard my quest for understanding.

I agree German is soooooo easy.

Do you speak german on any reasonable level then? I have many friends that learn german. Spaniards, Italians, French, Japanese and they have a hard time learning german. Especially since our grammer is quite snowed up lol.
Unless you actually speak German on any actually useable level I don't think you get to say how "eassssy" german is. One of my friends is a professional translator and he still has difficulties with the language.
