Clubs, battle axes and slingshots were the most important weapons of attack in the Inca Empire. According to most researchers, the Inca empire initially proceeded with attempts to negotiate during its expansion. Offers of voluntary submission to the Sapa Inca were accompanied by promised privileges for the nobles of the province to be subjected. If this offer was rejected, the Incan army attacked.
