Subject: Where did the monsters go?

Stuck again. My random monster-fight generator works, but it's so BASIC.
How can I do this without the if-statements? Is it a bad thing to stick
class objects into an array?

Also, I know Moblist[0].fight works, but why not Moblist[0..2].fight ?


##############################################
class Mob
  def fight
    "THIS IS A FIGHT METHOD"
  end
end

GOBO = Mob.new
DRAGON = Mob.new
SLIME= Mob.new

Moblist = [GOBO, DRAGON, SLIME]

def rand_fight
  a =  rand(Moblist.length)#<-----------Has to be a better way|
    if a ==0 then GOBO.fight
      elsif a==1 then DRAGON.fight
      elsif a==2 then SLIME.fight
    end#------------------------------------------------------|

end

p rand_fight
