It is trained at the [[Hill Fort (Age of Mythology)|Hill Fort]] from the [[Heroic Age]]. == God bonuses and upgrades == === Specific === * [[File:DwarvenAuger.png|22px]] [[Dwarven Auger]] <small>([[Baldr]])</small> increases speed and attack by 20% and reduces training time by 50%. === General === [[Odin]] increases hit points by 20%. * [[File:DraftHorses.png|22px]] [[Draft Horses]] increases speed by 20%. * [[File:Engineers.png|22px]] [[Engineers]] increases attack by 50%; doubles damage against walls and gates. == Strategy == Portable Rams are the cheapest of all true siege weapons and can therefore be mass-produced easily. They do massive damage to [[Building (Age of Mythology)|buildings]] and are virtually immune to ranged fire. As such defensive buildings are useless against them (unless they have [[Boiling Oil (Age of Mythology)|Boiling Oil]]). When in groups they can destroy [[wall]]s and defensive buildings rapidly while taking little damage in return. This makes reaction teams against them a must if one is playing defensively. They have weak hack armor but quite a bit of hit points so can last for a while if under attack by enemy units but, like all siege weapons, must be deployed with an escort if they expect to survive. == Changelog == === {{Micons}} === * Originally, Portable Rams had 250 hit points and 3.60 speed. With [[Patch 1.07 (Age of Mythology)|patch 1.07]], they have 215 hit points and 3.25 speed. * Portable Rams train in 20 seconds. * Portable Rams have 5% hack armor. === {{Micons|TotD}} === * Portable Rams have 3.5 speed and train in 15 seconds. * With [[Patch 2.7 (Tale of the Dragon)|patch 2.7]], Portable Rams have 225 hit points and 10% hack armor. == History == {{quote|When taking an enemy town quickly was important, one simple, expedient solution was to cut down a strong tree, trim the trunk, attach some handholds, and use the tree to batter down a gate or wall section. Although very dangerous work for the men holding the ram, it could be put into action with hours of arriving outside the city walls. The Portable Ram was particularly effective in surprise attacks and against fortifications of weak design. Such a ram was popular with raiding armies and those who could not linger outside a city for a protracted siege.|In-game history section}} == Gallery == <gallery> Portableram.jpg.png|Portable Ram in-game. engineerportableram.png|Portable Ram with and without Engineers N_Ram_bored.gif|Portable Ram bored animation N_Ram_walk.gif|Portable Ram walk animation </gallery> {{Units List (Age of Mythology)|N}} [[Category:Norse units]] [[Category:Heroic Age]] [[Category:Siege equipment]]
