You must have a Cathedral to call down Acts of God. If you have completed the relevant upgrades, Acts of God will be available at the Cathedral. Acts of God require 'Piety' to use. Piety slowly builds up as a Charge Bar at the Cathedral. Each Act of God has a cost. When there is enough piety to launch an act of god, its icon will become active (ie will no longer be greyed out). To call down the more expensive Acts of God, you will have to hold off from using the cheaper ones, until you have built up enough Piety to activate the more powerful and expensive Acts. When it is complete, simply select the icon (left click), and then right-click on the area of the map upon which you wish to inflict an Act of God. Priests, Bishops and Inquisitors who have been assigned to pray at the Cathedral will speed up the generation of Piety. Acts of God can be called down anywhere, and have no range restrictions.

Vision

When you have activated the Vision Act of God, right click on an enemy unit or building. This will briefly reveal all enemy units of that player on the map!

>>> Top

Plague

The Plague infects a single unit - however, that unit becomes a Plague carrier, and will infect other nearby units. Affected units will take damage slowly over time, until they die or the plague wears off. If you are hit by the Plague, try and quarantine the effected unit as quickly as possible! A unit infected by the plague will have a small noxious, green cloud over it's head.

Fimbulwinter

The target is an enemy Village. Fimbulwinter freezes over the village and surrounding workers, slowing them down massively, effectively shutting the village down as a resource gathering centre for a short period of time.

>>> Top

Lightning

This calls down bolts of lightning is a small area of effect damaging any units found there. It is not very effective against buildings.

>>> Top

Wrath of God

This calls down fire from the heavens. This is more effective against buildings, than units, as fire can spread from building to building if not put out rapidly.

>>> Top

Earthquake

This severely damages buildings within its area of effect.

>>> Top

Wormwood

This calls down a terrible, destructive meteor from the heavens. It's target must be a single building, which it will probably destroy completely. Nearby buildings will also take damage from the explosion.
