How many Hot Spots are kept in reserve, and what happens when the reserve runs out?
The rulebook gives the reserve counts and the rule for when the reserve is empty.

After step 11, six Hot Spot markers (12 on Heroic) go on the small yellow circles on the board as a reserve, and the rest go back in the box. A turn with a Flare Up adds one Hot Spot from the reserve. Once the reserve is empty, no new Hot Spots are placed, but an Advance Fire roll that lands on an existing Hot Spot still causes a Flare Up and the fire still advances.
