== 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 {{hota}}, Magogs can shoot fireball at any hex of the battlefield except for its own hex and adjacent ones (unless [[Bow of the Sharpshooter]] is present). Targeting dialogue is called by pressing G. Note that this Fireball does friendly fire. However, creatures immune to fire can be damaged only by a central hex:
