Potential info to add.

Nowhere in the article does it mention what affects placing an item in the display case actually has, such as maybe producing a better thought or increasing the value of the room. I don't actually have the answers to this myself, would be appreciated if someone more knowledgeable could add to the article.

I would imagine pedestals and display cases function the same, and I just tried putting some artifacts on pedestals in the throne room of my queen. It's still only rated as a "throne room", while the value should be above 50k. I looks like this is a bug (documented here), although Loci didn't have the issue. I got the Lazy Newb Pack installed, so maybe that's it? -- Danarca (talk)
