So i think that solid fog is "solid" enough to detonate a fireball early BUT it is NOT solid enough to provide ANY cover (it provides CONCEALMENT as per the spell description but not cover; this problem can be sumed up: "does solid fog provide cover" and the answer is no)... But a Dm COULD say that solid fog is "solid" enough to detonate a fireball ealry (this is upto the DM really)... Another EXAMPLE: Web, is web spell "solid" enough to detonate a fireball early (assuming you hit the web as per fireball you can make a check to get through small openings and a web surely has small openings)? If a PC had a problem with the ruling that a fieball detonates early then I would say rule thgat it doesnt to make things easier BUT my first inclination is that it (bu "it" I mean solid fog) DOES detonate early and that it DOES NOT provide cover or any bonus to saves... Actually once I think about it fog wouldnt be able to detonate a fireball (after all its fog) so I would abujcate it normally)</p></blockquote><p></p>
