Artifacts in WOG: discussion, questions, and answers.

Regarding the wand – it’s true, you can exchange it for various items for good artifacts. I tested it out of curiosity, and the Sign of Valor turned into a Tome of Water. Although I don’t really like Water, it’s still interesting...
Maybe you can suggest something to diversify the game. Right now, I’m playing with a friend at 200% intensity. In the editor, we put ourselves on the same team, and all the computers (4-6) are on the opposing team. We win 80% of the maps :)
How do you guys play? What’s with all the skeletons? I don’t know. You can get 500, but in the first serious castle siege or battle, they die. At most, 200 skeletons appear after a battle due to Necromancy. And even 500 is a lot; usually, it’s a maximum of 300 because either the computer comes early, or I arrive early :) And the main condition for victory is the Town Portal; with it, victory is 99% guaranteed :) But for that, you usually have to build/manage a Guild in four castles :)
