| + | |||
| + | Flame attacks are carried out in phase eight of the | ||
| + | game turn and occur simultaneously with all other | ||
| + | firing. Flame attacks are not subject to any move and | ||
| + | fire restrictions. Casualties from flame attacks are | ||
| + | not resolved by the method used for other missile | ||
| + | attacks. | ||
| + | |||
| + | When on the ground, creatures that possess flame | ||
| + | attacks may only fire at targets on the ground or at | ||
| + | Combat Height. When flying at Combat Height, | ||
| + | demi-dragons and other creatures that breathe fire, | ||
| + | may only engage in flame attacks on targets on the | ||
| + | ground, or at Combat Height. They cannot make | ||
| + | flame attacks on creatures at Flight Height. When at | ||
| + | Flight Height fire breathing creatures can only | ||
| + | make flame attacks on other creatures at the same | ||
| + | height or at Combat Height. | ||
| + | |||
| + | When a monster breathes fire in phase eight, the | ||
| + | appropriate template (i.e. the Flame Template), is | ||
| + | placed with its narrowest end touching the front | ||
| + | edge of the creature' | ||
| + | angle to maximise effect. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Any infantry or cavalry figure whose base is either | ||
| + | partially or totally covered by the template is liable to | ||
| + | become a casualty. Roll one D100 for each figure | ||
| + | involved and if the result is below or equal to 60% | ||
| + | that figure has been killed. | ||
| + | |||
| + | In the case of a monster or character whose base | ||
| + | falls partially or totally under the template, roll one | ||
| + | D100 to see if the flame hits the target. If it does the | ||
| + | target will suffer one wound and must refer this to | ||
| + | the relevant Character or Monster Hit Table. | ||
| + | The only exception to this rule occurs when a | ||
| + | character, unit or monster is magically protected | ||
| + | from flame attack. The protection will never be | ||
| + | 100% but whatever the protection factor is, it is | ||
| + | taken off the flame attacks usual percentage chance | ||
| + | of hitting before the D100 is rolled. All fire breathing | ||
| + | monsters are protected from flame attack as if they | ||
| + | were wearing Armour of Fire Repulsion. | ||
