Hi Guys, 
  Thank you for the quick replies.  I will reply inline below...

If the flame fiend is insubstantial and I use a fire extinguishing method like beating it with my jacket, or smothering it with a cloak, or pissing on it, what is the effect?

Good question. It would be unaffected, but if the fire goes 
out, it would stop regenerating.  I’ll revise my version to 
answer this.

An interesting form of fire demon, with some nice combat rules (though the 5-hex wants a facing diagram).

I don't follow what the last words "if it stays in its fire" refer to. The only fire hexes I noticed were randomly generated when doing a claw attack after having been attacked, and rolling a straight, or fire created with a 6-hex (?) fire spell?

Also, the claw attack says it does cutting and burning damage - does that mean the claws burn, or is it a reference to the fire hexes created when it rolls a  straight?

What can it do if engaged in HTH?

Hi Peter,
  It has 5 front hexes, 2 sides and 4 rear hexes.

  “Go Flame Like” spell was poorly worded.  I will change it 
to say that if it is in a fire (bonfire or hotter), it does regenerate.

  What I was trying to say that if you have immunity to fire 
the claws still do damage.  But it is fire damage, so if you are 
NOT immune to fire, it has the additional penalties of fire 
damage.  I’ll reword it.

  Very good question, a complete oversight on my part.  I’m 
going to say that if you are in HTH with it, it is as if you are in 
a magical fire hex.  Thanks!

How do you depict a "1.5 hex" figure?  How do you determine its exact location?

Hi Jeff,
  In TFT 1.5 hex figures are Reptilites, and Gargoyles.  They 
use a 1 hex counter, but are considered very big for for that 
hex.  Note that they have to pay more for armor.  A giant needs
two 1 hex figures to engage it, but a single 1.5 hex figure will 
engage it.

  1.5 hex figures are in TFT as written.

  I’ll send out a new version in a bit that incorporates these 
questions.  Thanks everyone!

  Warm regards, Rick.
