I've been playing Angband a fair old while, but I've never really understood how breaths work.
I was playing earlier with ESP and I caught sight of an ancient multi-hued dragon in a corridor around 20 odd squares away, with around 10 monsters between me and him. Anyway he breathes and I die copping around 400-500 worth of damage (I think).
Do breaths not falloff with range? And do monsters not absorb some of the damage? And finally, can monsters see through other monsters to get a clear line of sight?
