The strongest damage spell in the game, the [[Earth Magic]] spell [[Implosion]] (oh the gravity), has 75 dmg each power point and 25 dmg per point more than [[Armageddon]], and base boni of +100/+200/+300 compared to [[Armageddon]]s +30/+60/+120, [[Armageddon]] on the other hand damages any unit on the battlefield that is not immune to it.
'''Units immune to Armageddon:'''
* {{Cn|Efreet|noname=}}{{Cn|Efreet Sultan|name=Efreet and Efreet Sultan}}
* {{Cn|Fire Elemental|noname=}}{{Cn|Energy Elemental|name=Fire and Energy Elementals}}
* {{Cn|Earth Elemental|noname=}}{{Cn|Magma Elemental|name=Earth and Magma Elementals}}
* {{Cn|Firebird|noname=}}{{Cn|Phoenix|name=Firebird and Phoenix}}
* {{Cn|Magic Elemental}}
* {{Cn|Gold Dragon}}
* {{Cn|Black Dragon}}


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.

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]].
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).

*[[Efreet]]i/[[Efreet Sultan]]s
