Missiles [by which he means arrows] were frightening tools back during my time spent in battle and even without flames let alone wind to guide them, they are already capable of sowing terror. And terror is something that is felt by every human, every creature on this world.
... How about a terror-guided missile? Ah, now such a thing would be inescapable! Terror is felt by all soldiers in war, after all. Anybody with something like that in her hands will return out of any battle victorious! Wait until the very climax of the battle when your enemies believe they are winning, but... their lingering anxieties will guide the missiles straight into their hearts.
Such a grand spectacle that would crush any and all hope in favor of abject despair... I feel that you can savor the results much more than with missiles guided by mere "heat".
