An uncontrollable firestorm is blowing across the island destroying resources! Can you construct a fire brigade large enough to save your smoldering settlements?

When a 7 is rolled, the firestorm ignites and begins its path of destruction. The player that rolled the 7 will place the Fire Meeple on a land hex of their choice. Any hex with a Fire Meeple no longer produces resources and players built on that hex lose 1 resource to the firestorm—returning 1 resource of their choice to the bank. Once the meeple is placed, the firestorm immediately begins spreading across connected roads and ships, even if no settlement or city is present.

For each settlement or city connected to the original hex by either roads or ships (or a combination of), one additional resource is lost uless the path is protected by a Fire Station.
