The Iron Teeth are the second playable

beaver faction in the game. They were released on the 15th of September, 2021 with the game's Early Access release.

They are a Beaver Faction focused on metal usage and expensive housing.

Advantages

As of Update 7, Ironteeth have advantage over Folktails in the following aspects:

Industrial

Ironteeth's Industrial Lumber Mill is more efficient.
- Producing double the planks for only 50% more hp
Their early game Large Power Wheel is more efficient. In later game, engine converts logs into sustainable power. They can also combine the Badwater Discharge and Large Water Wheel to gain power from the constant badwater flow.
- Landscaping and terraforming can improve the power generated this way.
Constant flowing badwater flow also ensures continuous supply of badwater to produce extract and explosives even in droughts.
The only good that Ironbots require is Grease. The rest of the bots' needs can be satisfied by Charging Stations and Control Towers. The latter of which uses Science Points that can be generated from power using Numbercrunchers.

Population & Housing

Ironteeth reproduction is controlled through Breeding Pods.
- Average population size is based on how many pods are running, and the average Well-Being of the population.
- They can also have a "population stockpile" paused at 99%, ready to be born when the pods are unpaused. This does require more micro-management and is very susceptible to player error.
Advanced Breeding Pods translate to roughly 10~20% more workforce under the same population.
The Rowhouses allow compact housing, also making it easier to satisfy passive Aesthetics needs.

Space and transportation

With the Large Industrial Pile, their industrial storage is easily stack-able and integrates better into the industrial area.
Their Tubeway System is faster, allows beaver to build from inside and its network is easy to expand.
- Beavers traveling inside Tubeways are impervious to Contamination, allowing travel through flowing Badwater with no issues.
- Vertical Tubeways paired with Impermeable Floors allow for safe travel into or out of watered areas without letting the water through.

Food

Ironteeth's Hydroponic Gardens do not require green land, and is compact and easily stack-able. Although it does require a steady water supply and food processing industry.

Well-being

Decontamination Pod is more efficient than Antidote.
- In a best case scenario, this method cures Contaminated Beavers in half the time as the Folktails remedy.
Their Double Shower is more efficient.

Others

Their Deep Water Pump and Deep Badwater Pump can pump deeper reservoirs.
Their Numbercruncher produces science points 24hr without the need for workforce. It can be instantly paused/unpaused to balance power needs.
