<p>For an orc firebomb to be crafted, you'd need a bucket filled with lava, which, Mordor is a great place for lava, but they can't exactly create firebombs without iron, which they only have Orc Steel. There would be two ways to solve this situation: 1. Make the "Bucket" recipe craftable from both Iron ingots and Orc Steel 2. Add the "Orc Steel Bucket", which can be crafted on the Dol Guldur, Angmar, and Morgul crafting tables. Yes yes, the suggestion may sound stupid, but Mordor really needs a way to get buckets to withdraw lava, craft a firebomb, or drain the Sea of Nurnen, without having to exit Mordor or it's sub-biomes.

<p>Kudos, although you are saying that orcs can figure out how to make steel but not iron (?). Perhaps buckets should be craftable using any faction metal (elven steel, draven steel, morgul steel, bronze, etc.).

<p>I'd definitely love a way to move water without depending on other biomes.
</p><p>While I also think that having the current bucket crafting recipe should just accept faction metals, the idea of a rusty, Orc steel-coloured bucket appeals to me way too much. Even more if they were placeable.

<p>I think this has been suggested before (perhaps by me?), but I can’t find the threads anywhere.
</p><p>There are a number of other appliances that should be craftable with other ingot types, including shears, swords of command, anvils, barrels, crossbow bolts, and cauldrons.
