[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
I added the artifact code. There will be a set number of artifacts in the game. Each one can be found only once. There is no way for an item to permanently disappear. Some will be found through randomness walking around and other found by being the first to achieve "hidden" combinations.
For example: The first player to build the maximum sized Arcaneum in the mountains may receive the "orb of sight".
Artifacts not only adjust player stats, but they also have the option of using scripts and hard coded functions. If the orb of sight has the function AF_Sight then the player has the ability to view enemy armies and some stats.
Artifacts can be sold on the market, given to other players, and also lost by being utterly defeated in battle.
As for the stat boost with the artifacts, players receive only the highest bonus of all possible stat gains.
For Example: You have the Water Mark Sigil which gives +2 wisdom and faster water movement. And you also have the Ember of Souls which gives +5 spirit and + 3 wisdom. Your total stat gain will only be +5 spirit and +3 wisdom.
