"...advantage in terms of weaponry."

A lot of the claims made in the sources cited in regards to the degree of the advantage provided by weapons used in battle sound nothing more than conjecture or one-sided agenda driven accounts. With a large portion of the population dying or physically weakened by diseases, in all likelihood that was a bigger contributing factor than war, let alone weaponry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.59.117.190 (talk) 12:40, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):
Checked with Eargwig's Copy vio detector. 17.4%--refers back to sources credited, and key words and phrases. Nothing I found extraordinary.
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Nicely done, and I commend you on your persistence with this and Spanish conquest of Honduras
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
