Phoenix Logs/UNSC Units/Hellbringers

Anti-infantry Marines armed with flamethrowers.

Each Hellbringer carries a heavy flamethrower which deals area of effect damage

against close range targets. The flamethrower is very effective against

infantry - even those garrisoned in structures - but is of limited use against

armored vehicles. The flamethrower can be upgraded with dispersion nozzles

that increase damage and size of the flame sheets.

Marines willing to strap a tank of volatile chemicals to their back to fire a jet of

superheated flame at enemies are braver [and crazier] than most. Though the

UNSC adopted thermobaric munitions for deploying most incendiaries, the liquid

projector flamethrower proved its worth to the Spirit of Fire's combat teams by

burning out dug-in Covenant infantry, sterilizing Flood infestations, and heating

up decades-old MREs.
