Rangers' Guild/1.03.24

Wood Elf
The Rangers' Guild is a very game defining building for the Wood Elves. Although it is only a research building, the researches obtained massively power-up Gladewardens (and prior to 1.03.23, the Elven Hunters) to almost game winning machines. As such, it is quite fortunate that the building is obtained early game and is pretty cheap - costing just 100 gold. It is also rather durable with a hefty 600 hit points. But it's not all good news for our tree dwelling friends, like with many other Wood Elven buildings, the Rangers' Guild is very large, especially for its purpose. This makes it difficult to add to your base without compromising space or needing additional base defense. The building also has an odd shape, further causing wasted space. In addition to that, the two main game-defining researches it offers are very expensive. But as the sole purpose of the building is for the four researches it holds and does nothing more beyond that, once they've all been obtained, you could very well self-destroy the building for that much needed space.
