You just made that up. Nowhere in the book does it talk about how they are going to use a shorthand convention for something. Don't make things up.
Andur said:Notice it says HIT, you then have two targets, you can choose either target to apply the flaming weapon daily, since you HIT.
Yeah. It does say hit. And right after that is a colon. A colon is an amazing piece of punctuation. In this usage, it indicates a syntactical-deductive. This means that what comes after the colon is describing what comes before. It's defining HIT in this instance.
What it says is, if you hit, you can do these things, one of which is deal your STR damage to an adjacent enemy. It doesn't use the word target (not that it'd matter much if it did). You have still only hit the first opponent because, indeed, there is no process for "hitting" the adjacent enemy. You just deal the damage.
There is no other way to interpret the rules as written. Of course, you are allowed (and sometimes encouraged) to do what works at your table. But you are clearly not following the rules as written. You've interpreted something that is not expressed in the text and therefore, you are playing by your own rules.
Have fun.
