If you are allowed to craft epic alchemy items without the lame feat (or I suppose you could cheat it in with rogue 10), you can improve an alchemist's fire 148 times (if you could afford the one-third of 14,820 gp of materials = 4,940 gp), for a 149d6 grenade that splashes 149 squares (745 feet). Given the HP of rock, you could probably use one of these things to destroy a good portion of a castle. It's over a quarter-mile diameter that will basically be vaporized, after all.
Using [[Masterwork Variant (3.5e Variant Rule)|GW's masterwork rules]] (which, incidentally is one of the lame reasons I played with these numbers), you can make a tier 986 masterwork. Of course, the cost would be absurd (approximately 3 digits per 10 tiers ==> 1 followed by 99 0s, which is just under a Googol [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Googol]).
But with that Googol worth of gold, you could have an item that has its weight reduced by 24,650%. So Mithril Mountain Plate with armor spikes normally weighs 235 lbs, instead would weigh -57,810 lbs.
Okay, that is dumb. But this was fun to figure out.
If the main orc character takes 10 rogue levels and gets Legendary Commander, he'd have:
* 9780 followers = +29340 craft
* I'm sure +50 for the Kenku is reasonable at level 18, so total craft = 29400 when taking 10
* With a DC 29400 craft: 864360000 sp per week
* = 86436000 gp per week
* = 12348000 gp per day
* = 514500 gp per hour
* = 8575 gp per min
* = 142.91 gp per sec
* 7 alchemist's fires every second
He'd be able to make a nuclear warhead: 1470d6 alchemist fire over 1470 square splash radius (7350 ft. or 1.39 miles). Or create an 8.35 mile wide sunrod effect that lasts just over a year (367.5 days).
