Non-wooden ships do not bum as readily a: other types, and will have only rigging or sail: burnt by a casting of this spell, not both. External weapons will also be damaged, with a 1 in 6 chance that any such weapon is destroyed Wooden ships may also burst into flame. On a roll of 1 or 2 on 1d6, the ship's hull and deck having caught fire and will suffer 1 Hull Point of damage per round, and will suffer the appropriate deterioration of its air quality. The spell itself causes 1d4 points of Hull Damage. Creatures within the area of effect take 5d6 points of fire damage, with a saving throw vs. spell allowed for half damage. No normal or magical effects (other than wishes) will reduce the amount of fire damage. Creatures are stunned for 1d4 rounds by the sudden combustion of the air and all flammable materials. The helmsman is allowed a saving throw for the ship and its inanimate contents. If successful, the ship will not lose its rigging or catch fire, but will still suffer 2 points of Hull Damage.
