Fire

One pillar of flame

	Mark that pillar of fire. See how it illuminates the surrounding area?

Fire is a terrain obstacle similar to Plasma, that units can not move through. These tall pillars of flame illuminate a 5 square radius from Fog of War. The light from the fire, however only illuminates areas that are not capable of concealing units, and do not offer a visual indication of whether or not a property belongs to the enemy troops. The fires will be presently existing on the maps and players can not strategically place any new fires, nor extinguish any existing fires. This of course excepts the Design Room in which fire can be used to create new maps.

In Advance Wars Days of Ruin, fire first appears in campaign mission C8 A New Threat. And are included on other maps such as C16 Hope Rising and training map T37 Fire & Water.
