I don't think there's anything I can say about the Aztecs that hasn't been said already. It's a phenomenal story that examines the ramifications of time travel, historical bias, colonization, and morality. All of the regulars get a chance to shine (well, except perhaps Susan. Ah well.) in a variety of ways; leadership, fight scenes, romance, all weaving together into a fantastically paced and plotted story.
My only real criticism is that, as one might expect from a '60s episode about other cultures, it's a bit iffy on the actual depiction of the Aztecs. Not as bad as some might fear; there is nuance present. But oh dear, Tlotoxl...
