Damascus Steel[edit]

Based on the Wikipedia entries for Damascus steel and Wootz steel.

Details[edit]

  • Adds a new ore, black hematite, which is only found in small clusters in veins of regular hematite. By itself, it can only be smelted for iron.
  • Adds damascus nuggets, which can only be made.
  • Adds the metal damascus, which is as valuable as platinum and aluminum, but can be used to craft better weapons and armor than ordinary steel.
  • Damascus nuggets can be produces by combining 1 black hematite, 3 other iron ores, 1 raw green glass and 1 charcoal in the smelter. These must then be smelted to produce damascus bars.

Issues[edit]

  • Damascus may be too easy to obtain, even though black hematite is rare.
  • 167% block and damage may be too strong. If so, 150% should be appropriate.
  • May need to add the [DEEP] tag to the metal to prevent it from replacing equipment during embark. Because of the value, this raises the price of an axe, for example, by 100 points. This would prevent other civs from bring damascene goods to trade though.
