T_T... wish my mages could cast it more than twice before falling unconscious, having killed a sacred or two.

Its not even nearly as effective as bladewind, at least for Agartha mages. Imho.

I'd rather stick with no magic items than uniques at levels 2, 4, 6. Or maybe put some never used items there. I mean, noone will forge a champion's skull, a ring of warning. Might as well get one from a random event. Halberds of might, birch boots are also quite uncommon. (These might even be somewhat useful, contrary to black laurels.)

As for nation choice, I wouldn't pick Mictlan again. They can rush fine, but their mages are too limited and getting into blood's too hard. I might pick Ulm. If monkey PD can win, why couldn't the forgers?

Hopefully I can change your mind as I was really looking forward to this.

Keep in mind I wouldn't add powerful things like the Gate Stone to the mix. I wasn't even planning on any of them being as powerful as a Ring of Wizardry or Robe of the Magi. It's more just for fun than to be something really powerful. But I don't want them to be useless either. As an example, what about something like Ember as a level 6 item?

Well, I'm on the receiving end of ember in another game (where my mighty C'tis has single-digit death income by the time I should have tartarians, despitee controlling and searching a lot of provinces - this game's logn lost) and I'm not enjoying it.
Some artefacts would be ok.
Quickly, I think Percivale the pocket knight, the sharpest tooth, Holger's head, the flying ship, sandals of the planes, Carcator, would all be ok.
