Re: Is AI ever forging items?
The AI players. Well our mages too I guess. I can see in the logs the thinking routine and its quite lengthy.

Re: Is AI ever forging items?
Today I saw 2 AI commanders, each carrying 4 magic items.

Neat! What were they, and what were they carrying?

Re: Is AI ever forging items?
One was a troll and some of his items said, that "they belonged to him".  The other one was a mage.
I played another short game and engaged 5 commanders, carrying about 10 items. From what i can remember, there were bracers, giving protections, ring called Precious, weapons, staves and armor. |

Sounds like Bogus and his men... those are independents not AI opponents.

.. and their equipment is pre-set (hardcoded) by the devs ..

Re: Is AI ever forging items?
In a recent game, I had found my very first AI true Thug : by luck, the AI had managed to fully equip its prophet (LA arco Hoplite commander). The prophet had : lucky (from the sword), fireshield (shield), an armor value of 22 (23 head) from its good armor and as well as Krupps' bracers (armor and defense + reinvigoration), and he add a total defense of 28 (including his heroic ability).
He also add another misc item, but I don't recall what it was.
Most of the time, he was behing his army casting smite and other holy spells, until this great battle when one of his mages cast berserk on him.
This hero died only versus a squad of my sacred units (with F9 blessing and 21 attack value each + fire weapon, even then it took several round to kill him)
