I have been looking forward to these sets for a while, and ill be picking up a bunch even though I don't have a rule set in mind. Does anyone have any good recommendations for a system for these sets?

Musket and Tomahawk, from studio tomahawk who makes Saga, is what I've heard.
Pikemen's Lament would be my choice. It's based on the Lion/Dragon Rampant Rules, but written for Pike and Musket era warbands, wich is kind of odd.
But it works really well for Samurai warfare and I think it could do well with the Spanish conquest.
I for one will try Tribal with Aztek on Aztek warbands.
At the risk of being lynched - my first thought when they were announced was they'd make fantastic stand-ins for Dogs of War or Estalia-themed armies in Warhammer Fantasy Battles, particularly with the return of the Old World in the future.
@Joseph Bear I suspect we'll see a lot of fantasy use from these sets !

I'm going to use them for Mythic America's/Warlords or Erehwon primarily.
En Garde! is a fine ruleset and has both Aztec and Conquistador warband lists. It's a nice narrative game and you only need about a dozen of miniatures per side. I'll most probably use these rules at first.
Will get used in Kings of War (unit based fantasy games which included a variety of human style armies, )
