The Bless thing seems to be WAD due to the protection being overall instead of either body or head. It may be that it would be non-trivial to code a separate check for the non-specified protection type. Two bracers stacking on the other hand seems like a bug.

It's WAD in the sense that we can make a guess how it happens. It doesn't seem like an intended effect. More likely a side effect of the new body/head armor system.

Are there any other non armor/helmet items that give protection?
Shields, but they're handled differently.

Gift of Kurgi, but that's a unique artifact anyway. Skull necklace is an armor for some monsters but no item gives it. Some other artifacts also give non-specified protection.

The fire helmet gives overall protection.

I think there is a bug with AI taking over enemy AI castles. In a single player game I was playing. The AI had massive armies sieging enemy AI castles for a long time. But it never took over the castles. When I finally got rid of the large sieging AI armies and stormed the castles they were almost empty of enemy troops.

That's already on the shortlist since a long time.

EA Abysia's income is affected by growth/death scale. According to the race description, They should immune to the bonus/penalty like MA abysia.

Widely known issue, but I suppose it has slipped being added to the shortlist.

A mage of mine cast shark attack underwater and around 60 sharks showed up and completely decimated the enemy.

I think this was caused because the enemy has gift of health up and thanks to dominion shifts all his units started in battle with a red bar indicating that they had been wounded.

Default Transformation Bug

I was going to post this last week, but I got distracted. (Did not check if this was posted earlier.)

One of the transformation results is very strange (and presumably a bug) ;

Hydra Hatchling (#719) (size 3) - With the sprite image of a large (size 6) hydra with two heads missing.

Edit:
Oh, quick followup question for KO, is transformation affected by any scales like luck?
