>iron is better for weapons and armor than bronze
Cheaper is better, you trust fund kiddie. What, you think armies march on Panzer tanks?
Armies march on two things: their stomachs and their wallets. Iron is plentiful, easily worked and cheap. I don't give a fuck if your 2 foot bronze sword stored in a tomb keeps an edge for 3,000 years; my iron sword just needs to keep an edge for 3 months, and it's currently buried in your guts because I could afford to outfit 10 soldiers instead of just 5. They're raping your lands, pillaging your women and burning your water as we speak.
Fuck bronze, and fuck bronzaboos. We picked iron for a reason, and it wasn't because Hittite women are easy. And they are very easy.

Iron weapons are cheaper and easier to repair.Ferrous metallurgy also leads to some nice things,like a certain alloy called steel.

I think he was talking about how quite a few games have it so you upgrade your bronze weapons with iron ones
but what you said is historically accurate on why iron replaced bronze

That picture is incorrect.
The text specifies "DO NOT pass GO and do not collect $200".
There's no such thing as having to pass GO without collecting the money.

This is my philosophy about literally everything, from cars, to computers, to clothes, to those delightful Hittite hussies. The odds are good, but the goods are odd.

If by Iron you mean Pure Iron, then pure iron is inferior to bronze because it'll snap the first time you hit someone with it. If by Iron you mean Steel (which is an iron-carbon alloy) then Iron is vastly superior to bronze.
