Since i also played today for the first time the game -solo-, and severed a loss in the first campaing, too, (but i think i might have done something terribly wrong since i opened 14 tiles and after being defeated, i saw that i had 6 more to find the...stairway to heaven) i have two questions for most experienced players:
1) I had two at-will cards with which i could attack 1 monster (each card). It is valid that i attack one monster with one of them and another monster with the other one or these are considered two different attacks (and therefore not allowed by the rules)?
2) Most monster cards, try to attack to you and if they cannot, they "move to a tile closer to the nearest hero". How is the move resolved? They go to the first square of the tile that they move on to? Next to the hero? On a straight line?
Any help would be welcome!

Bit late but here goes:

1) From how i read it, you can only do one attack per hero phase.
You can: make 2 moves OR move and attack OR attack and move (like written in the rules under 'the hero phase'

2) when they move to a new tile without a hero, they move to that tile's bone pile.When there is a hero on the tile, i read the monsters tactic section , sometimes it says 'the monster moves adjacent to...' in wich case i use the shortest route towards the hero and place it there.
Sometimes the monster tactic tells you to put it on a tile and attack all heroes there (like rat swarm or gargoyle) in wich case i plunk him down on the pone pile, right in the middle to attack everywhone!
