Igniting

[LivingRaccoon]

I've never see a topic like this, so pardon me if somebody has already done this. An idea is that, if the unit is hit with a fire weapon or steps on fire and doesn't die, he has a 1-4 chance of getting lighted like a marshmallow over a warm kampfire. 1-2 means that nothing happens, and 2-4 means that they ignite. Igniting effects the unit by reducing there speed by 1 stud and there skill by 1 for one or two or however many burnings your twisted heart desires for that game. Suggestions? Feel free to use this in game. Thanks!

Brikwars 2010 has fire rules. Basically, fire comes in d4s as damage and whenever you make a fire attack, any d4 that comes up higher than the target's armor level (which is 1/2 for minifigs) ignites the target and adds a d4 of ongoing fire damage. This d4 is also taken as a penalty to armor and skill whenever they are used, and though fire doesn't cause anyone to move slower, they actually MUST use all of their movement points to run around screaming if they have any leftover.


You could probably get away with using a d6 if you don't have any d4s. I mean sure it's more damage, and if you wanna do d6-2 or something that's up to you, but
