Factory
Factory is a yet unreleased faction, which is planned to be released for Horn of the Abyss in 2020 (and confirmed to come with the 1.7.0 version). This new faction is set to be on a Wasteland (a new terrain from previous version of HotA), and can be summarized as a mix of steampunk technology and Wild West style, with nods to the unreleased Forge town.
As of August 2020, the revealed line up consists of:
- Halfling
- Mechanics - a human unit using flamethrower, similarly to Pyro from Forge
- Armadillo
- Automaton (no released graphics available)
- Sandworm - a big worm moving underneath the ground (as if flying in terms of gameplay)
- Gunslinger
- Dreadnought - a huge steampunk robot
- Couatl
Both Dreadnought and Couatl are set to be a 7th tier unit, with dwellings of both available to build in Factory town (built separately, although not alternatively).
Factory will also feature heroes from former games, such as Kastore and Agar, but also new ones, like Todd and Bertram.
The two classes have been revealed to be the might class of Mercenary and the magic class of Artificer.
