Re: (TFT) One-Hex Fire - how much light?

["Ed Thorn" <prophesor@yahoo.com>]

DMG, You know I have tremendous respect for your work.

But a magical Fire spell that yields no light?  I rather think such contrary
behavior would have been reported in the literature before now.

I will point out that killing a 10-ST creature in three turns is not
automatically the same as destroying them utterly, or as reducing them to
ash.  And that such a tremendous heat would be far more effective as a seige
weapon than the canon suggests.

Please revisit this issue, with an eye toward considering these issues, and
a thought toward the possibility that much of the damage of a Fire spell may
be from surface damage and trying to breathe in a hex 'filled' with flame.
