Be advised that a regular camp fire would make a lousy fireball inclicting only 1d6-1 burning damage and once you throw it you'll have to grab another part quickly exhausting your camp fire.
Also, Shape Fire (even when working with Create Fire which needs no fuel) can move no faster than 5.

However, if you are on a real battlefield and troops in formation are coming towards you the ability to Create Fire and Shape Fire in large quantities becomes relevant. Most troops loaded for battle will have an Encumbrance that brings their Move down below 5 too.
