commit f4aae922b97d1882f415f429851104e5d8654113
Author: Neil Moore <ne...@s-...>
Date:   Sun Sep 29 12:32:02 2013 -0400

    Fix red devil hop attack order and messaging (#7573)
    
    Have them strike just before the hop, when they are adjacent to the foe
    and therefore guanteed to have line of effect.  Furthermore, print the
    "hops backward" message (which should only happen for successful hops)
    with the correct non-"it" noun whenever the monster was visible at
    *either* end of the hop, not just the destination.
