THE POPULOUS BIBLE
C.36 Armageddon
The Armageddon spell makes an arena out of the land in game, deleting all huts and all trees that may be in the arena. The four shamans and a percentage of each follower is transported later, one by one. The shamans, for the only time in the game, have Magical Shield around them and occasionaly cast blast on each other while the followers are fighting to the death. The remaining tribe wins. When a tribe dies in this process, their shaman loses the magical shield and gets lighted.
This spell boasts perhaps one of the most spectacular, bloodiest and certainly the most final fight scenes you'll ever see in the game.
While they do tend to be rare because many people choose not to have their fate determined by chance, there are ways to obtain victory in Armageddon.
One of the best strategies to make use of in Armageddon is to convert your entire Population to Warriors and Firewarriors; have as little of any other follower as possible.
The best way to do this effectively is to build several Training Huts and then start training as soon as possible. In this particular scenario, it would behoove you to have two or maybe even three warrior and firewarrior training huts each. Remember to keep spells handy as training soldiers will only use up an allocated 50% of your total mana, which is then divided among all the troops currently being trained. In Armageddon, any time you are not making troops, (this includes the time of when one trained troop leaves the training hut and the next follower walks in to receive training) you are wasting mana.
Since the number of completed Huts in your base adds one brave to your population in the Armageddon arena, and only 199 followers may fight in the arena (plus your shaman) at once, any hut you have will result in one less soldier being available and one more brave to weaken your army. As a result, it is imperative that you dismantle your huts before going into Armageddon. This will ensure that you have the maximum number of troops available to fight for your cause.
