Alchemists stone , Barrier , Aegis , Magebane , Summit and hammer of the forge lord are very good also . Those i always try to get if possible .
Finally the +3 death staff is good too and the area petrification sword and gift of kugri .

Most other artifacts i rather rarely forge .

The soul stone of the wolves is always high on my list. I will usually forge all artifacts given the time, the only one that comes to mind as being total junk is the Crown of Overmight.

Crown-ey. We'll have to make it cooler then.

2500 com's in one game.

I like the crown, you can make a tough charming boy with that, it is overpriced though.
Other overpriced artifacts are the ankh, carcator and the unique armors.

The other artifacts are well worth forging.

I like the unique armors! I almost always try to make that Callius Robe, Virtue Armor is nice for non-astral commanders, I like Fenris Pelt, and those heavy ones are good for just protecting people who dont do much but cast fatigue-low spells or carry important items (such as the Sword of Augelmer).

- I find the Green Eye to be fairly meek for being unique and requiring eyeloss
- I dont particularly like Blink, but I suppose that is because I dont use SCs, so hence I never get those Crane Boots
- Never made the Crown of Overmight, I find it mighty unsexy.
- I have never made a number of the weapons, they didnt seem particularly appealing.

[Turin]

oh I just meant those two heavy protection armors, I guess you are almost always better off with marble armors. The others are useful.

The green eye´s specialty is the +2 penetration bonus.
You can stack it with the other penetration items and get a +6 bonus.
And it casts sleep in battle, so you have more chance for your charming/hellbind heart to work =).

I havn't found the twin spear that turns killed units into longdead to be really useful. The other twin spear that summons lessor horrors is pretty cool, though!

[Chazar]

There should be some way to get a hint were the unique items currently are (like the libraries provided in WarlordsI). I think it is fun to be able to track and hunt down the wearer of a unique artefact. After all, the uniques shoud have some reputation which might be difficult to conceal...
(...or are spies already capable of reporting about unique items?)
