Cast Calamity
Prophets can cast Calamities, such as earthquakes and plagues, when they have accumulated
enough Faith (power) to do so. To have a Prophet invoke a calamity, select the Prophet and
click on the square Calamity button of your choice (e.g., earthquake). Then, left or right-click
on the Main Map where you want the Calamity to occur (for some Calamities, such as
Plague, this must be a specific unit). If you cannot cause a Calamity in a particular area –
near a Temple, for example – the mouse pointer will indicate this. Click the Cancel Action
button or press the Esc key to cancel the Calamity invocation.

The Ultra-Cybers in Empire Earth have special weapons and abilities. To have an Ultra-
Cyber perform one of its special attacks or actions, select the Cyber and then click on the

the Poseidon Cyber attempt to take over an enemy Cyber, select the Poseidon, click the

Grouping Units Together
You can group your units together in order to issue a command to all the units in the group
simultaneously. To group units together, select the units you want in the group using any
appropriate selection method (e.g., a dragging a lasso around them). This kind of grouping is
only temporary – once you select something else, the units are no longer grouped together.
