As I said, just brainstorming.
OK, lets start with the weapons. Which ones specifically ? Give me a couple of examples. There are at least three ways a flame weapon could be modeled in the game so I need specifics not generalities

Don
OOB 13 USMC (of course!)

Weapon #30 - 40mm TB Grenade (Wpn Cls 8 - Inf Flame)
Seems a bit odd that a 40mm round sets a 50m hex on fire.

Weapon #162 - SMAW-NE (Wpn Cls 18 - Napalm)
I can see the larger SMAW round starting a fire in a hex - but...

Weapon #185 - CBU Incendiary (Wpn Cls 18 - Napalm)
Thinking this might be "better" (better being of course subjective and relative) modeled more like Weapon #203 - 1000lb Airburst.
