Overview[]

The Ironclad is a unit released in the 4.7 Patch. It is the drop reward unit for the Dreadnought, which became a repeatable boss in the same patch. Its current drop rate is 5%.

It is a very decent unit, although for a drop, compared with other naval units, it does not stand out. On the up side, its attacks are accurate, where the bombard would actually cover the 9 squares, hitting the middle row hardest; and the mega bombard will definitely hit the 5 squares in a cross-like manner, punishing the centre mostly (but unable to hit the air).

Having reviewed the unit closely, there is a general feeling that while it would be a good unit, it still does not surpass a Mammoth battleship in terms of damage output or survivability, but it does have immunities to breach and stun.

In summary, although it is not impressive ( as a phalanx or ranged or melee drop), it is useful (but hardly a game changer for naval combat). Players unable to defeat the dreadnought should take comfort that they can acquire a few Mammoth Battleships instead, as the latter are reliable alternatives.

Trivia[]

Ironclads were first put into use during the American Civil War, where they provided artillery support during combat.
The design of the Ironclad Battleship closely resembles that of the design of the USS Monitor, an Ironclad warship used by the Union Navy during the American Civil War.
The Ironclad Battleship is the first boss drop that is not a physical part or the reproductive body of the boss that drops it.
