Ironworks/1.03.25

Minotaur
The Ironworks is the typical Blacksmith style building, following the generic pattern of offering armor and damage upgrades, as well as producing the race's siege weapons. The MInotaurs' damage upgrades are the best in the entire game, offering +20 to their basic troops, giving them a whopping 30+ damage! Such power allows the basic Minotaurs to roll right through infantry and buildings alike. However, unlike other races, the armor and damage upgrades from the Ironworks are specific to Minotaurs in the sense that no other type of unit will be affected by the upgrades. This limits the amazing Iron Clad Horns and Iron Shod Hooves to just 2 units in the entire game. Still, the power they bring to their basic infantry makes these upgrades worthwhile and should always be something of a priority to get, making this building one of the first you should build - after a few Arenas, of course.
