Why? Or is this you mentioning a logical interpretation of the literal rules that seems wrong to you too, but you're just dropping it on the forum with no explanation?

If it's a zap, then it seems to me both of the ways you've suggested handling it are backwards from how I'd do it. (That is, I'd have it able to accidentally hit others in the same hex, and be dodgeable but not defendable).

And if it's really meant to us the generic Special Spell mechanic as you suggested before, then it would seem to me that there would be no possible defense other than being immune to magic effects (e.g. Spell Shield).
