Is It Warm In Here Achievement?

How do you get this? I've hacked their weapons room. There's fire in each square. I teleport 2 Rock men in and the enemy crew dies while in a fire space.

Yeah it seems like they sometimes die to the fire instead of the fists. I got it after I teleported a fire bomb into the room.

Easiest way is to in fact kill a Rockman which won't run away and takes no damage from fire.

Kill the crew of a ship with a fire on it. Make sure it has enough hull to survive a few systems breaking. Watch the world burn.

I think it didn't work since they are running from the fire, trying to break the door.

Exactly, aliens that are running cannot be targeted by melee.

I haven't seen a rock sector in so long this is like the hardest achievement.

Actually, they *can* be targetted, for the same reason the extra 2 of yours can *shoot* at the enemy crew in a 4-on-2 situation.
As long as your boarders are not engaged in melee, they can and will shoot [randomly] at any enemy crew in the same room with them, even ones trying to break down the door to escape. [This is a technique I have employed many many times, esp vs the flagship: if you hack the hack room and lure the enemy crew to the doors / cloak, the connecting corridor outside the hack room becomes an excellent kill-zone / bomb trap as they try to flee to the medbay when injured.]

The cheevie only pops if the lethal [kill-shot] damage was dealt by combat, not by the fire [hence it is much easier to get vs rock ships, as noted earlier].
