Modelling a stepped pyramid made of extruded hexagons

Hi everyone!!! After spending quite a while into a modelling problem. I think I have hit a walll. 

I´m trying to recreate a structure that I saw in one of my dreams, it was a stepped pyramid of extruded hexagons, perfectly fitted. My approach was to use a line where I previously distributed fittted meshes. My idea was to move the line and erase points on each level of the pyramid in order to get a properly aligned structure. The tricky thing here is that you are not following a linear pattern. For the first level you only have to move left and delete the las point. For the second one you don´t to move (only on Y), you just have to delete the first and last point. The thing is that when I reach a certain level my pattern gets broke out.

I´m sure this is not the first time someone is doing this, and also pretty sure that I´m missing something and  that there´s a much easy way to do this.

I´ll gratefully thanked if a smarter mind could put some light on this problem.

Thanks in advance.
