Wheeeee, I also just got this one! While killing a unit right in front
of the one that refuses to die even though it has 0 hp. I've been
using this attack for over a month, and I haven't modified it at all
since I made it, and it's never given me an error before so I don't
think that's what the problem is.

success_message {0} closes their eyes and chants a long incantation
and throws their hands upwards. A bolt of lightning erupts into the
sky from one palm and seems to split into many smaller bolts, while an
orb of energy erupts from the other. The wind picks up and heavy rain
starts to fall. With a shout, {0} brings their hand down, pointing at
{1}. At that, the full force of the storm crashes down upon {1}.
critical_hit_chance 85%
critical_hit_effect death
critical_hit_message The wrath of {0}'s storm was too great. {1} falls
to the ground, writhing in agony for a moment, before laying still.
