As can be seen in the above image, I've selected the nearest Trog as a target for Arcing Spark, but cannot select the tree as a second, despite it being within three squares. Interestingly, I CAN select my Goo Priest, who is mechanically the same distance away. Not sure why this happened. It was the same no matter which wizard I used.

The reverse was also true - selecting the tree prevented me from selecting the trog, unless I selected my goo priest or wizard as an "intermediary". I don't know why the game thought that the two of them weren't in range of one another.
might have something to do with the current facing while targeting... http://forums.cardhunter.com/threads/bug-illusionary-barrier-refuses-a-square.8354/#post-104908 http://forums.cardhunter.com/threads/bug-illusionary-barrier-refuses-a-square.8354/#post-104926 http://forums.cardhunter.com/threads/bug-illusionary-barrier-refuses-a-square.8354/#post-104958 If so, then it is at least an inconsistency in the mechanics compared to other multitarget spells, gusts for example. IF gusts lets you target two targets of which one is not within the same facing as the other. But i think it does, never noticed any hick-ups there.
Doesn't quite make sense to me, as it was happening for the dwarf wizard too, who absolutely could have faced all enemy targets in his front arc. Unless that's not quite what you're saying. In fact, that image at top is of the dwarf wizard trying to target, and it seems pretty obvious that he could hit them all with a facing turned towards the trogs. That said, when I was fiddling, it didn't seem to matter how I selected targets, I couldn't get both the trees and the trogs without choosing my elf wizard or goo priest in addition to the closest trog and tree. That seems wonky.
