I just got an interesting result from doing this..
1.Casting Armageddon 2x in Britain
2.Waking up LB via the Linear awaken spell
3.Fragging him with Arcadion
That was fine, but the minute he hit the floor everyone else that was in the castle suddenly awoke... Talk about unexpected..
You couldn't click on them or communicate with them in any way, save for telling Arcadion to dispatch them; which he would reluctantly do since most of them are beneath him..
A bug?

Re: Armageddon and Arcadion
Actually, I did some more testing on this.. Anyone who Arcadion deems worthy of killing after casting Armageddon will temporarily rise up from Armageddon Sleep and wait for the black sword to slay them, after which the re-slain body vanishes completely..
Interesting....

Re: Armageddon and Arcadion
I can't remember how Exult does the armageddon spell, but I remember in the original everyone would fall asleep and just have their dead flag set. Arcadion scripts both npcs I believe, but that is still hilarious.
When the people in the castle awoke, did they attack the Avatar as undead zombies? Or did they just wake up?

Re: Armageddon and Arcadion
It is kinda funny actually..
Well, it wasn't exactly the Zombie Apocalypse per se; but close enough for my purposes.
After LB's demise they woke up and just stood there.. Only the people in the castle though, (Minus Batlin of course).. I killed Nystul (again); with Arcadion, the others he refused to re-kill just stayed standing there. Even in regular combat mode I couldn't attack them, or cast any spells on them..
Only in that particular circumstance did this happen.
Always looking for new ways to break the game engine appeals to me..

Re: Armageddon and Arcadion
Hahaha yeah. Although sometimes I'd get disappointed when I'd inadvertently break the game engine by cheating at the House of Games in Bucs Den and getting an unholy sum of gold only to have Britain completely obliterated.
sometimes i'd encounter random glitches... such as a fellowship member in the poor house in Paws being randomly afflicted with poison. Now, I would remember if I stabbed them with a poisoned dagger, but in those cases, I did not. Another one I can recall was giving the invisibility potion to Kreg in Empath Abbey and he'd disappear.....only to re-appear in the game several days later as if nothing happened.. and then I'd proceed to get my revenge on him for swindling me.
