[edit] Gameplay
The basic units of the game are the Basal Golems, which provide mana for the production of new units and can be turned into buildings or monsters.
To unlock new creatures players must press the 'Research Scroll' which holds all the units that are yet to be unlocked.
[edit] The Juggernaut
The most powerful unit in the game albeit not useable by the player is the 'Juggernaut' A large Robot with a skull shaped head that is first encountered in the 'Nuts & Bolts' Section of the campaign section of the game which is of the 'medium' difficulty. It is the most powerful melee and ranged attacks in the game and can kill almost any unit in one hit. It cannot be turned to stone by the 'Medusa' unit unlike all other units in the game.
