Baalz,
I really like that idea!

Actually that might be a way to have an option against many of the "what do I do against" complaints.
Destroy all Maenads
Destroy all Illithids
Destroy all Black Hearts
Destroy all Crystal Matrix

If you are willing to invest in a wish, then get rid of them in a sweep. If you time it just right to suddenly make a rush into the void created then it can be strategic.

Nahh probably too huge a change possible. Even if the people started working to immeadiately get them back it would really swing the balance of power. Maybe, if it was a different version of wish that was more expensive and later-game

How about a worldwide leprosy? I think a worldwide flames from the sky or murdering winter would be too powerful, but a worldwide leprosy would at least give the effected nations time to react.

For something like these, create a new spell: Pact with the Void/Devil/Force, whatever. So it costs xxx astral to cast, then costs an additional xxx of the appropriate gem to cast the secondary affect.

100 astral to cast Pact, then another 200 death to cast Plaguemoon (mass leprosy), 200N Nature's Call (mass beckoning with MR resistance), 150S clamshatter, 200F Crusade (mass 1 time affect of purgatory on all undead), 400B Hellish Desire (mass 1 affect looming hell on every commander with troops) and appropriate earth (blight?), air (?), water (?)

Essentially have a set of worldwide unit damagers (MR or take 5-10 damage), or sporadic removers (beckoning, lure), disease, etc. Find some level of affect that would really annoy most nations, including the casters. Have domes protect against them, and have them be extremely high cost yet game changing.

Quite a few of the high level enchants are game changing, just give them one time big affects and change the vector for them. Lasting effects of utterdark seem more game changing then the above, and the above affect everyone and should be recoverable.

Not that current mechanics would allow it I guess, but I liked the idea.

I second this notion -- the game immediately ends, everyone loses!

It would be a funny way for a player in a bad position to force a tie!
