   I have it, but I've never actually used it as a GM.  Thanks for reminding
me of it -- I'll have to break it out again and use many of those
interesting characters in my Sunday game . . .  but not all in the same
encounter!  8^)

   This spell breaks at least one TFT spell convention (i.e. requiring
material components for spellcasting) but it does look interesting enough to
play with.  I'll probably use it for my own campaign.  Thanks for the spell.

   Here's another fire spell . . .

IQ 15 SPELLS
EXPLOSIVE FIREBALL (M): Like the Fireball spell, but
   the fireball explodes upon hitting the target, doing fire
   damage to nearby figures as well ? subtract 1 ?die? (i.e.
   1-1) for every hex away from the target.  Figures behind
   hard cover (like a wall) or anyone protected from fire
   (such as with a Fireproofing spell) only take half damage.
   Cost: 2 ST per (1-1) of damage.
