Among the troops sent by Oprak's Ironfang Legion to aid Nirmathas against the Molthuni invasion are its dreaded firestorm battalions, units with special training in the tactical use of bombs and explosives. Each of these battalions carries enough alchemical ordnance to bathe an entire battlefield in flame several times over.
