transfering a cursed item (through death?)

[MaxWilson]

My impression is that the chance of picking up an item on a commander's death depends upon the number of other commanders in that province, so if you make the intended recipient be the only commander in the province it might be lost and you'd have to reforge it. Do not use a fever fetish because items on commanders who die out of combat (e.g. from disease) are just lost. He has to die during a battle. The easiest way to do it is to make him Attack from the very front while everyone else does Hold and Attack from the back.
