Artifacts made of mithril can be melted down at a forge, giving you mithril to forge into something else. I don't think you can deliberately destroy artifacts like you can normal objects though.

What is the actual deal with guaranteed forges?

What I know:

They are absolutely a thing in Sil-Q, with guaranteed forges at 100', 300' and 500'.
I can find no evidence for them in the Sil 1.3.0 code, with the only "guarantee" (that I can find) being that if you have gone 5000 turns with no forge, the game will generate one on the next level.

Am I correct? Are there, or were there ever, Sil-Q-style guaranteed forges in Sil? I particular, is or was there a guaranteed forge at 100'?

There was 1 guaranteed at 100' (50' if you took the up stairs on 1st level) and a probability counter that eventually hit 100%

OK, I've found it.

Both of these are news to me!
