I'm not sure that Vanheim really needs that kind of a boost, since they already can build dwarven hammers very easily.

Perhaps, but the description of the Dwarven Smith is misleading, it gives the impression that there should be a forge bonus, even though my friend told me that it has never had it, which I didn't know. Doesn't mean that if the DS is given a forge bonus it must be as big as Ulm gets. I was thinking more along the lines of 10% or so, which would shave off a gem or two from most items but not enough to make a significant difference. Of course, I forgot to take into account the fact that the DS has native E3, which, as you say, makes it easy enough for Vanheim.

But another improvement that would be really welcome would be the possibility to lock down research bars for the diferent schools, because trying to optimize research for three or four schools at the same time is a real pain in the arse...

A number insertion would be better, since when you've high research you end up with odd numbers to reach the next level ... so if I can put XXX in Alteration and YYY in Blood by digit, it would be far better.

Yep, I also strongly vote for that! Cant be to difficult to have that!

Typing numbers isnt convenient either (I dont care much about 1-3 RP) and is too different from the existing implementation.
