In the Masterwork mod, there are a variety of new weapons-grade metal materials.  This includes alternate industries for metals of quality similar to and better than iron and steel. Note that your enemies will have access to higher quality materials, too!

In the Masterwork mod, there are a variety of new weapons grade metal materials.  This includes alternate industries for metals of similar quality or even better than iron and steel. Note, that in general your enemies will have access to high quality materials too!

==Metal Industries==
  
The Dwarven [[Crucible]] is capable of creating metals that can't be extracted at a regular smelter. These include decorative chrome and titanium; weapons-grade cobalt; and high-end weapons-grade metals mithril and wolfram. The Dwarven Crucible can also create mithril from silver, and create obsidian from any 4 blocks. Dwarves can further process these metals into high-end alloys at the [[Metallurgist]]. 
+
This might be a nice place to talk about the new industries like the Boneyard, the Damascene powder process, Glassforge, Blast furnace, whatever.
 
 
Orcs can make a few specific weapons and crafts from un-smeltable ores at a [[Damasc Furnace]].
 
 
 
Dwarves have even more high-tech metallurgy available once they strike magma. The [[Great Magma Forge]] makes items of Volcanic metal by alloying mithril, steel and obsidian.
 
 
 
Both Dwarves and Orcs can use a [[Boneyard]] to create weapons-grade Ironbone and Bloodsteel from ash, bone, and blood.  Additionally The Orcish [[Tribal Warcrafter]] can efficiently make a selection of items directly from organic materials.
 
 
 
Orc tribes can obtain by trade blueprints for the [[Ashland Glassblower]], which makes cobalt and ruby stained glass, and can also process bars of metallic green glass and ebonglass. The Dwarven [[Glassforge]] and [[Gemforge]] can also make weapons from crystal glass and gems.
 
 
 
A few Orcish clans have been lucky enough to re-discover the secrets of the [[Ancient Foundry]]. Deep-bronze is a heavy alloy suited for superior armor and weapons that can crush steel. Orichalcum makes excellent weapons and armor, and is also prized for unique mystical properties.
 
 
 
All smelting produces slag, a waste product that can be processed at a [[slag pit]].
