Artifacts in WOG ?
Does anyone know about new combo artifacts in WOG ?
Maybe someone has a list of all new artifacts and
their properties.
thanks.

There aren't any new combo artifacts in WoG yet. Maybe one day but no combos are currently planned for 3.58. (Maybe we'll do a Commander Combo sometime though.)
The new WoG artifacts are:
1. Magic Wand - when equipped, this changes other equipped artifacts randomly each day. The type of artifacts changed depends on which misc. slot the Magic Wand is equipped to.
2. Gold Tower Arrow - this gives arrow turret bonuses to a hero defending hero in a castle and arrow turret protection to a hero attacking a castle.
3. Monster's Power - this gives bonuses to all monster's of a particular type. I think the monster type changes each week.
There's also about 10 Commander artifacts that give Commanders various bonuses if you give them the artifact. Many of the artifacts give increasing bonuses based on the number of battles won, but you lose all bonuses (and must start over) if the Commander dies or if you unequip the Commander artifact.
There may be a few new artifacts in 3.58 if time allows.

In the case you need ideas for combo artifacts you may make in future releases, here is one:
Some artifact opposite of shield of the damned, casting, for example, bless, stone skin, shield, mirth and fortune etc. for all allied troops at the beginning of combat.

Actually, I don't know if Slava will be able to code new combined artifacts, but if yes...
...What do you think about that three artifacts that weren't included in SoD? I mean:
*Diplomat's Suit
*Mire of Neutrality
*Ironfist of the Ogre
I don't have to explain, what artifacts should they consist of 
Other combined artifacts... we would have to look for groups of artifacts, that give similar bonuses. Luck/morale artifacts don't count in because one pendant gives 3 luck/morale. That would simply be useless. What do you think about combining all 4 magic element orbs into a powerful orb which increases magic damage by 100% or even more?

I did some browsing through HoMM3 arifacts and here's what I found.
Artifacts that would create a combined artifact:
-3 artifacts that increase Eagle Eye skill
-Artifacts that negate luck and morale bonuses (maybe)
-All 4 Magic Tomes (actually, I don't know, what artifact could be created when combining them, they're powerful enough)
-2 artifacts that increase Hero's field of view on a map
-3 artifacts that increase creature speed during battle
That's all, I guess

4 magic tomes
If you should get all 4 tomes, why not have the ability to cast all spells at the expert level?
And as for the "Iron fist of the ogre", would that negate the rampaging ogre demanding his targ back at the first of every week?

Hmmmm, that property is too weak. You won't find all the tomes at the beginning of the game, thus when you find all the tomes there's a big chance that you'll have at least one magic school with expert spells. What do you think about casting 2 (or even more) spells during ine turn, or giving 25 points of Magic Power and Knowledge?

Hmmm, the Iron fist idea was created before WoG. It might negate demanding the targ, but that's not very useful. I understand, that you'll have a strong army when finding the last artifact and combining all of them into the Iron Fist. I actually don't have an idea, what bonuses would the Iron fist have.

1 new combo-artifact idea:
-sword of hellfire + hellstorm helmet + shield of the damned + breastplate of brimstone = "unholy alliance??"
It would be much like angelic alliance, allowing player to mix undead and inferno (+dungeon?) troops without any morale penalty. It could also cast something like fire shield to all allied troops as AA casts prayer.
That because itīs very annoying to watch "tough" devils or efreeti freeze in panic just because there are few skeletons in their army!
Please comment!

Sure, the unholy alliance sounds good, but since AA negates morale penalties from mixing good and neutral towns, why not make the UA negate penalties from mixing neutral and evil as well as undeads?

Some of my ideas.
Eyglass of All-Seeing: Combo of the Spyglass and the Telescope. Casts the Visions spell every turn free of cost.
Magician's Dream Orb: Combo of Orb of Vulnerability and Orb of Negation. Makes friendly units immune to hostile spells, and hostile units to beneficial spells.

Could someone give me any hints on how to make my own combo artifact?
While waiting further instructions, I shall release another combo artifact idea of mine: Tazarīs Ultimate Shield Of Defense (Okay, okay, you can change the name if you want...)
Class: Relic or combination of lesser (defense based) artifacts (if combo, the Crimson shield of Retribution could be a part of it)
What it does: +X to defense skill, casts following mass spells: shield, stone skin, airshield, counterstrike, (mass magic mirror)
How do ya like it?

Sounds cool if unbalanced... Then again, WoG has never been about balance!

Ummm... weren't those supposed to be parts of the Armageddon's Blade, at least according to the story?
