Empire Earth - Calamities
----------

In Empire Earth, Calamities can be invoked by any player with the Prophet unit.
Once a Prophet has enough power to unleash a Calamity, all the Prophet has to
do is to select a target within range. Calamities affect both friendly and enemy
units, except Hurricanes which do not harm allied ships. Calamities are devastating
in early Epochs, but become less destructive in later Epochs as units become better
armored and have more Hit Points. Temples provide protection against Calamities
and all units within their range are unaffected by Calamities. Cybers are unaffected
by all Calamities except Volcano.
