Siege + The False Prophet would be funny.

Wouldn't: "Opponent must discard X cards from hand..." accomplish effectively the same thing, in fewer words? I suppose you could theoretically want to choose a lower number, but I can't think of why.

Actually, that wouldn't be quite the same if you look at it, but I don't know why anyone would want to make their opponent discard any fewer cards from their hand than possible. I would just say, "Opponent must d/c x cards from hand. CBN."

If you said, "discard X," then it would have to be that number or none.  If they don't have that number then it would be none.  I say this because of how Assyria Conquers Israel is played.  If they don't have 5 cards in deck then they cannot do the instead.

If you just say, "up to X," then it becomes the opponent's choice and they would naturally choose 0.
May you prosper greatly!

First card is WAY too overpowered... true they need a lot of heroes in battle but I just don't see that card ever coming into play... they do a captain band and you get SIX or SEVEN cards off of their deck? No way.

but I don't know why anyone would want to make their opponent discard any fewer cards from their hand than possible.

Is there an echo in here?  ;)

If you said, "discard X," then it would have to be that number or none.

Since when? AFAIK you can still discard 1 character with Zeal if all EC's in play are of the same brigade, and you can discard one single color site with Vengeance of Eternal Fire if that's all that is in a territory. If that's been changed, I would be happy to hear that, but I don't remember it ever being changed.
