This article is about an older version of DF.

Bismuth bronze has the exact same weapon and armor properties as regular Template:L. It can be used to make all Template:L and other objects. Bismuth bronze is 20% more Template:L than Template:L, three times more Template:L than its component parts, and has a unique color.

Bismuth bronze is made with the following recipe:

Because of these proportions, bismuth bronze is produced in lots of four bars at a time. While the ores must be smelted normally, only one additional Template:L is needed to produce those four bars of bismuth bronze from the four bars noted above at a regular Template:L. At a Template:L, fuel isn't an issue.

Bismuth bronze also provides more weapons-grade metal per tin bar than regular bronze, which may be a consideration if Template:L is rare on your map.

It is also the best material for making crossbows. While crossbow firing damage does not depend on the material (only on quality), they are used as hammers in close combat and bismuth bronze is the densest of the materials you can make crossbows of.
