Template:Infobox Tech Copper Shields is a common technology in Age of Mythology that is researched at the Armory. It makes human units, ships and heroes less vulnerable to pierce attacks.

Effects

  • Human Units -10% pierce vulnerability
  • Ships -10% pierce vulnerability
  • Heroes -15% pierce vulnerability

History

As the first available metal, copper was used to emboss wooden shields. Copper not only improved the strength of the shield, but also provided a great aesthetic appeal. Copper on shields disappeared quickly when the new technology of bronze was discovered and existing copper was consumed to make the stronger new metal.
