Hammer of the Gods is a Norse myth technology in Age of Mythology that is available to worshipers of Thor and can be researched at the Dwarven Foundry once Iron Weapons is researched. Once researched, it increases the attack of infantry, cavalry, and heroes by +10%.

History

Thor's hammer was named Mjollnir, which meant "smasher". It was forged by the Dwarf Brokk, who unfortunately made the haft too short, so Thor was forced to wear gloves when wielding it. Mjollnir hit anything at which Thor aimed, and would return to him after being thrown. It could shrink down to hang around Thor's neck, and perhaps as a consequence, the hammer became one of the most popular motifs in Viking jewelry.
