== Flamer ==

The Flamer is a very effective short-ranged weapon in that it not only damages enemy Mechs, it also increases enemy heat, making it difficult for the targeted unit to return fire.

== Tactical Analysis ==

* The Flamer generates more heat than transfers.
** Therefore it is completely useless when attempting to out-heat another heater.
* If forced first person view is enabled, then the flamer is reasonable ammo-less alternative to SRMs for the purpose of blinding other players with smoke.
