On one side the flamer part of the rulebook says no one can enter a flamed section of the map.

On the other side, in the "killing the broodlord" is says your flamer is not usefull in killing the monster.

Therefore, can the Broodlord enter and go throught a flamed section?

I'm FREEeeee..ee..e..e...

I believe the brood lord can't enter. The flamer is not useful because the broodlord ~~can take multiple points of damage~~ needs multiple hits to take damage. I'll have to double check this though.

Edit: I can see how this is ambiguous... If it were in a flamed section clearly it could move out and suffer no Ill effects. By the rules though I'd say it still blocks movement for the broodlord.

Yes, I believe Charles is right.

~~The bad part is that it doen't make much sense.~~

The good part is that it makes the flamer being of any use against the Broodlord, which I prefer. Perhaps the Broodlord is immune, but it still fears the flames, as the beast that it is...

Edit: Yes, it makes sense.

I'd say that it makes a fair amount of sense. Effective immunity to fire and a preparedness to stroll through it are two completely different things.

Good to see a small consensus.

This is also how we played it.
