This is a prototype setup for the new forged weapons. The idea is that there would be one line listing a standardized material so that templates can be easily compared.

Then after that is a list of all the various different forms that can be achieved. I put hardness rather than material as there are many ways to hit the same hardness and density, none of which seem to make a difference. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi(talk) 06:26, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

That looks good to me. Depending on how complex we want to get, we may want to consider a simple two type set up (~ mid carbon and high carbon) . --Hithrael 15:50, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
Interesting. Are there any plans to add forger names? --Isharon 16:38, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
Why? -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi(talk) 19:17, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
Looks like a good start, but I would suggest adding Durability since it has an affect on the construction and there are generally multiple ways to reach the same hardness, but each might have a different durability. --Callahaan 16:39, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
I'm not sure we need to bother. As far as I can tell (and I have a huge amount of data that agrees), all weapon templates affect Durability to Construction in the exact same way. Might just be easier to have a chart somewhere for all weapons. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi(talk) 19:17, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
I've noted the same for armors. Maybe a large page with forged weapons then one for forged armors? List the generic traits at the top, then have the specifics in a separate chart? --Hithrael 19:33, 17 August 2011 (UTC)
Fair enough. I assumed something like this was going to be the case but I hadn't taken the time to verify the hypothesis. Perhaps then on the basic weapon forging page we put a table of what durability = what construction. --Callahaan 21:56, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

Steel

Not fully fleshed out, still missing the 4 stone high carbon steel data. Will add when I have time. -Moderator Caraamon Makdasi(talk) 02:34, 2 January 2012 (UTC)
