But the orcs knew that they were being pursued by 'manflesh,' and that's why they double-timed it across the plains of Rohan (instead of taking a more leasurely pace, stopping at times for picnics and croquet).

The wild men and orcs burn the village huts, and we'll see that the orcs will use the 'fire of Orthanc' to breach the wall at Helm's Deep, and later the siege of Gondor will have fire launched from catapults, but I don't think that the orcs use fire for less lethal purposes.
