So does this basically mean if I already have Armageddon, I'm p. much guaranteed to get Fire Rain? There's no visible tier/level descriptions of spells and that's probably why people like me keep getting for example the book of fail instead of ice snake because they're somehow ridiculously
considered the same tier.. Armageddon sounds like the "best" one even though I agree Fire Rain is superior.

This is insane, and I don't think any other unit in the game can do damage like this. Can it?

And because sprites are one of your default starter units along with the peasants and the lake dragonflies, as soon as you get anga's ring after the cursed pirate quest you can garrison all your troops in castles and lose/retreat a battle with no army and after ya get the default sprites you can just create a full stack out of them using sacrifice. Seems like a nice way of getting the buffed up sprites of doom earlier before getting them in Ellinia. I think I should try that now.

There was even an item for sale in the 'isles in my game which gave all elves +1 initiative. That way with the sprites I'll have a unit with an extremely high initiative which is vital for a mage to nuke everything before anyone starts movin'/shootin' !!! The best I got before was the horsemen.
