But it's a game, not a simulation. And a game where there is no line-of-sight rule and arrows move around walls is obviously not too concerned about real physics.

That's right. And by that acknowledgement, the Wizard is STILL the closest hero because it's actually only TWO squares away.

It was a general statement. I didn't even analyze the example.

Implied doesn't mean truth. Monsters are explicitly NOT given a speed.

I suppose you mean "monsters are not explicitly given a speed." Either that or you don't know what "explicit" means. If they are not given a speed, there is nothing explicit about it. And if there is nothing explicit, we can only make assumptions based on what is implied.

That's fine. Just be aware that your interpretation goes against the general consensus.

Is it? You've polled everyone on this issue have you?

No, but this has been discussed many times before and that seems to be the case.
