Balefire Cremation: When an ability tells you to cremate a fighter, remove that fighter from the battlefield and place a Pyre token at the centre of the space occupied by that fighter. At the end of the battle round, after determining control of objectives, allocate 3 damage to each enemy fighter within 1" of the centre of one or more Pyre tokens.
