}} It damages all creatures on the battlefield, including the caster's own troops, except for immunities to fire spells or spells.

Creature specialities still apply, which means that for example [[black dragon]]s or [[efreet sultan]]s as well as [[Phoenix]]es do not suffer any damage. 

Damages all troops at once with a fixed amount of damage and can be used a first spell that has its casting phase before units - so if the spell power is of sufficient level and there are no immunes in the enemies stacks the enemy hero is easily vanquished and possible artifacts are transferred - better than [[shackles of war]]. 

Chaos cities have [[black dragon]]s and Inferno Cities have [[efreet sultan]]s, Conflux Cities have [[Firebird]]s all of which apart have either fire or magic immunity (and are thus immune to this spell and not hit by friendly fire that way), also have a good movement rate and less movement penalties on the travel map compared to an all level city group, making them feasible for the use of this spell and having no other, possibly damageable units (which is called the [[Dragogeddon]] tactic).

-* [[Conflux]]'s '''Armageddon squad''', consisting of 4-7 tier Conflux units.
-The highest possible damage for Armageddon cast by a player is 375154 points of damage. This requires Expert Fire Magic (or [[Fiery Fields]], or [[Magic plains]]), Expert [[Sorcery]], Sorcery as hero specialty (gives 5% bonus to Sorcery per level), maximum Power (99), maximum hero level (6424) and [[Orb of Tempestuous Fire]]. 370084 (ca. 98%) points are the bonus from Sorcery skill. Therefore this is the highest possible damage to deal to multiple units by one spell by a player. It is, however, possible for [[Faerie Dragon]] to cast spells of theoretically infinite strength. For highest possible damage to deal to one unit at once by one spell, see [[Implosion]].

-In [[Horn of the Abyss]], Armageddon damage is reduced from 50*SP + 30/30/60/120 to 40*SP + 30/30/60/120. Read more [[Horn_of_the_Abyss_(Changelog)#Version_1.5.2|here]].

+'''Units immune to its effects:'''
-Armageddon can cause even more damage to creatures than the [[Implosion]] if collateral damage is taken into account. Because Armageddon damages all creatures, it has become part of one of the most renowned tactics, often called [[Dragogeddon]]. The tactic requires fast creatures immune to Armageddon. In the original {{roe}}, [[Green Dragon and Gold Dragon|Gold Dragons]] and [[Red Dragon and Black Dragon|Black Dragons]] were the fastest creatures with immunity to Armageddon, and that is where the name of the tactic was probably derived. Later in {{ab}} and {{sod}}, the [[Phoenix]] became the fastest creature with immunity to Armageddon. In [[Inferno]], you may get Armageddon in the Mage Guild and use only [[Efreet and Efreet Sultan]]s who are immune to the spell. When the hero's army only consists of immune creatures, the hero may cast Armageddon without damaging his own creatures, in the process causing severe damage to the enemy. '''Note that Green and Red Dragons are not immune to Armageddon, thus they're useless for Dragogeddon.'''

-The town with the highest amount of creatures immune to Armageddon is [[Conflux]], with 4 out of 7 fully upgraded creatures being completely immune. On top of that, it's their highest-tier creatures. However, to balance that, Conflux can only learn Armageddon if they have the [[Aurora Borealis]]. This does not work in Horn of the Abyss. The only towns that can learn Armageddon are [[Inferno]], [[Dungeon]], and [[Necropolis]].
