The metalsmith's forge turns metal bars into various weapons, armors, furniture, siege ammunition, trap components, and other objects. To build a forge, you must have one block and an anvil. If you embark without preparing carefully, you will start with one iron anvil. If you lose it or start without an anvil, you can often trade for one.

It takes one unit of charcoal or coke to produce items on a forge, unless you use a magma forge.

Weapons

Weapons can be forged from copper, iron, bronze, bismuth bronze, steel, silver and adamantine, for one metal bar each. The weapons that can be forged are:

However, note that crossbows and picks cannot be forged out of silver.

Armor

Armor can be forged from copper, iron, bronze, bismuth bronze, steel and adamantine. Available armor types include:

Each piece of armor requires one metal bar to forge, except where noted.

Furniture

Furniture can forged from any non brittle metal -- in short, all metals except for pig iron and Bismuth. You can forge:

All metal furniture requires 3 bars to forge except for chains, animal traps, buckets and blocks.

Siege Equipment

Siege Equipment can be forged from copper, iron, bronze, and steel. Only one piece of siege equipment can be forged: the ballista arrowhead, which requires 3 metal bars. These arrowheads must then be mated with a wooden log at a siege workshop to form a complete ballista bolt. It is also possible to make pure wooden ballista bolts at the siege workshop, which are assumed to do less damage. The siege engines themselves are also built at the siege workshop, out of three siege engine parts made of wood.

Trap Components

Trap Components can be forged from copper, iron, bronze, and steel. They are:

Note that each requires 2 bars of metal to forge.

Corkscrews, Menacing Spikes and spiked balls can also be made from wood at a carpenter's shop, requiring 1 log each.

Other Objects

Other objects can be forged from all metals except pig iron. They are:

Each of the above objects requires one bar of metal to make, including studding. Like other decorations (such as encrusting with gems, decorating with bone or decorating with shell), you cannot specify which object to stud: the smithy will generally take the nearest available object and stud it.

In addition, 3 bars of either iron or steel can be used to forge anvils, which are used in the construction of additional forges.
