Editing Gog and Magog (section)

== Special Ability: Fireball Attack ==
In addition to the target, [[Magog]]s' fireball attack damages all units standing in hexes surrounding the target. In the original game, this can sometimes be seen as more of a hindrance than help, due to the fact that it can hit allied troops next to the target. However, in {{hota}}{{-wh}} the area of effect around the target does not damage units normally immune to [[Fire Magic]], and players can target any non-adjacent hex to be the target of the attack including empty cells, greatly increasing the versatility to the level of the [[Fireball]] spell. Most notably, the area of effect does not damage the [[Efreeti]]. However, they can still be damaged if they are the primary target in the central hex of the shot.

Fireball Attack is similar to [[Lich and Power Lich|Liches']] [[Lich and Power Lich#Special ability|Death Cloud]] attack. As Fireball Attack and Death Cloud are considered as AoE ranged attacks, they can't be affected by [[Preemptive Shot]]s {{withhota}}, even if these attacks target Gunslingers or Bounty Hunters as a central hex.

In the case Magog decides to use the AOE damage to shoot himself, the damage will be calculated for each hex one by one, starting from the top right hex. If the number of shooting Magogs is reduced before a calculation of a next hex is resolved, next hexes will receive reduced damage.
