=== Artifact Monopoly ===
A tactic for the turn's first human player of every month. Since all [[Artifact Merchants]] carry the same stock, the human player who is first in the turn order gets the first choice of artifacts to buy every month. This can be a huge advantage during multiplayer games, as the computers always act after the human players.

If playing with {{sod}} expansion, a solid use of the strategy is to buy every [[combination artifact]] piece they can afford at the first round of the month. After a few months, and with some luck in adventuring, the first player - using this tactic - may combine few of the easier combination artifacts like [[Bow of the Sharpshooter]],  [[Cloak of the Undead King]] or [[Wizard's Well]] - all quite powerful.
