{{user commentary|
* Factory has two creature line-ups: natural and technological. Both have their own level 7 creature and can be developed in parallel.
* Maximum [[Mage Guild]] level is 5.
'''Pros:'''
* Despite its expensiveness Factory can choose one unit line-up and develop it quite quickly.
* Factory has 2 mechanical creatures which can be [[repair]]ed (i.e. "ressurected") if damaged.
* Native terrain is [[wasteland]], which makes it hard for other units to traverse.
'''Cons:'''
* Factory is an expensive town. To have both unit line-ups, i.e to have different tactics, a lot of resourses is needed.
* Most Factory units are quite slow.
* Factory has two flying units, both of whom are from natural line-up.}}{{end of user commentary}}
