[QUOTE="Hriston, post: 6880862, member: 6787503"] I think you've missed my point entirely. I don't care how anyone defines house-rule, and I don't believe I've argued with anyone over what one is. I've accepted the definitions used by those I've been conversing with and made my arguments on their terms. I'm not worried about any value judgement implied by the use of such terms. What I object to is the idea that the wording of the spells in question excludes flammable objects that are worn or carried within the spells' area of effect from being ignited by the flames which the spells produce. My reading of those rules tells me that is not the case. You can call it a ruling or a house-rule if you want. It makes no difference to me, but for the DM to determine that such an item catches fire due to one of these spells requires no change to the rules or the spell descriptions as they are written. As I've said above, there's plenty of room within the adjudication space defined by the rules for the DM to apply his or her judgement and imagination. [/QUOTE]
