I assume it is a error. Volcano don't deal a burning effect

Why do you think it is an error? I don't understand. Why would a volcano be able to 'nurn' someone? I feel like if it got a 'nurn' affect to it's attack it would become to powerful. What ent,elf,corpse, or man could be nurned and live? I'm not sure if you were joking around or something but when i came into this thread i expected a reasonable issue, not something as preposterous as adding a 'nurning' affect to volcano attacks. At length, though, i would deem it appropriate for the volcano to be issued a 'burning' affect. To explain my reasoning, volcanic eruptions typically involve molten lava, which happens to be fairly warm at the time of eruption. Furthermore, i think that a volcano should have the affect of 'ashes'. This would involve the entire map in its affect, within 3 turns of using the ability, every flesh and blood unit on the map (friend or foe) would die, and all unit Productions should be halted for about 45 turns. This should help work towards balancing out the orc race, as i have heard that it is the least powerful race.

I still think that a nunrning effect would be appropriato too U_U

Hahauhuahhuahu

Btw, Volcano deal area damage, but it is really a low one (better throwing more attacks on a single target, at least you might able to kill a caster or a strong unit). The Burning effect would, at leat, help against ents and wooden units in general. Considering how is it now it really need a strong powerup...

Also orcs are the weakest race for their lack of options. They haven't any way to deal with a strong enemy or to dispose from a distance of casters, also their strongest units are easily converted, they have no way to deal with dragons (goblin archer is the only unit but you can't make an army of those because are useless against anything else) they are the only race with no effect for towers and their melee units aren't really nothing special (they might seem slightly better than human units but they lack the smiths bonuses, also they have no way to deal with ents), also they are totally armless against ships and wooden units in general...
