Raising it

The Rivetman comes out of its own spawner, which your Builder raises for 450 gold in the middle of a battle. Once it stands it musters a Rivetman every 11.4 seconds by itself, and levelling it shortens that — to 7.3 seconds at level 2 and 5.3 seconds at level 3.

Upgrades cost 300 gold to level 2 and 1,200 gold to level 3. Every level also makes the troops it musters hit harder and last longer.

It is one of the five troops the Steampunk Hold roster opens with, so it is yours from the first match — no unlocking.
