Machaka was my favorite for a long time. They have some major weaknesses.
First their province defense is terrible... seriously I've seen tennis balls kill them.
Second is they have only one very expensive blessed unit. If you don't get a good source of gold income you'll have very few units to bless.
Third their archers are very weak... pray you find a province to recruit some decent archers.
I know they have some good points... but the list above are the bad points I remember.

Weak archers ?? What's the problem, they have a bow, that's all that matter... Any bowman group is doomed if any melee troops comes to contact, having poor morale is rather an advantage as they run quickier - and faster as they're unarmored.
And being very cheap allows for large numbers, very interesting for Flame arrows.
As for PD, half of the nations have also terrible PDs (Man, Arco..), that's not specific to Machaka.
Agreed on the limited blessed units. But it's also like Arco in fact : pretty good mages and troops (although Machaka's mages are more "straightforward" and less varied), but not many blessed units.
