Soul Contracts are one of the few items that don't get discounted by forging bonuses or dwarven hammers. Which makes sense, since you're not actually using the slaves to build them, but as payment for a deal with some demon lord of some description.

Lifelong Protection works the same way.

Oh. Kinda silly that you can use the hammer in other blood items but not in this one

Well, Armor of souls is still forged, but soul contract is written.

Quick question: what exactly is heroic damage?

Figured I might as well look for all of LA Mari's heroes. Angelique has it on her light lance. Don't think it's an anti-undead effect, since that's written on it already under damage. Also haven't been able to google anything relating to it.

Check the dm file for CBM. It does an extra 15 strength not counted ap damage that doubles against larger foes. Which means Angelique is a pretty serious anti-thug with her default weapon. Too bad she's size 3 though. At least I assume she's counted as size 3, I'm not sure about how cavalry gets counted.

If she hits a size 4 undead, she'll do 48 regular damage followed by 30 ap.

I get the hammer bonus to forge a carpet, a bag of wine, a pill or an elixir. So I still think it's stupid to make an exception only with contracts.

None of those constitute a deal with the lords of hell. I'm okay with forging discounts working for any kind of item where the item itself is where the power comes from, but not for one where the power is not in the item itself, but in the deal it represents.

Or alternatively: Thou shalt not haggle with the devil.

Man, now I wish we had giants this game! (neither a Gath or a Utgard, hrmph)
