Armageddon damage

The highest possible damage for Armageddon is 14,905 points per unit. This requires a level 108 hero with Expert Fire Magic, Expert Sorcery, Orb of Tempestuous Fire, maximum Power (99) and Sorcery as the hero's specialty (bonus 5% to Sorcery per level). The highest possible amount of unit stacks in battle is 20 per side + 3 War Machines per side. Therefore, the maximum possible damage to deal to all units on the battlefield, provided no spell immunity or resistance is in play, is 14,905 * 46 = 685,930 points of damage. However, if all creatures on the battlefield are Water Elementals, which are vulnerable to fire, highest possible damage is 14,905 * 2 * 40 + 14,905 * 6 = 1,281,830. However, because the maximum possible Power is 99, the most Water Elementals you can summon in a single stack is 396, which only has 11,880 health, which is 3,025 less than the 14,905 damage each stack takes (and that 14,905 is before the Water Elementals' "double damage" effect). This means that the most damage Armageddon can do in practice is 14 stacks of at least 994 Water Elementals + 26 stacks of 396 summoned Earth Elementals (as 396 summoned Water Elementals don't have enough health to take even 14,905 damage, let alone twice that much) + 1 Ballista (250 health), 2 Ammo Carts (100 health each) and First Aid Tents (75 health each), and a Catapult (1,000 health) = 14 * 2 * 14,905 + 26 * 14,905 + 250 + 200 + 150 + 1000 = 806,470 damage. As a comparison, Implosion's maximum damage is 22,711.
