There are over 70 artifacts in the game right now plus the Wands and scrolls. I think, the problem is right now, that on too many maps there are too many minor artifacts placed and not enough major ones because a lot of the artifacts are falling into the "major" category. So that means you'll get a plethora of the same dozen or so minor artifacts in the course of one game which leads to the belief that there are not enough artifacts. There are, definitely, but you don't get to see them, is the problem here.
I think one of the big problems is that when a game is created H5 doesn't do anything to minimize the number of duplicates in the game.Jolly Joker wrote:There are over 70 artifacts in the game right now plus the Wands and scrolls.

IIRC there are 26 minor artifacts in the game. Lets say that you're on a map with 6 factions and each faction has 4 random minor artifacts in it's area. This is a total of 24 minors on the map. When the game is created H5 should ensure that each of those minors are unique.
What happens now though is, by chance, you'll see a 3-5 of several artifacts and may not see half of the possibilities in the game.

We need more artifacts, but it can wait a bit until they take care of other things. #2.
