Extended description

arrow

This +8 unarmed combat card is a more powerful version of Breath Weapon II [DR-95]. It also can force the opponent to discard a champion or ally. Breath Weapon III is more powerful in that you can choose to discard a champion of base level 5 or less. If you opt to not discard the champion, or it is too high a level, you can force any two opposing allies to be discarded, regardless of their level. The allies to be discarded are your choice, but this card will not affect allies that have a special power that prevents their removal from combat, like the Faerie Dragon [DR-83].

Even without this power, the +8 bonus makes this card worthwhile. Cards that reduce an opponent's base level are good combination choices with Breath Weapon III. Another card that works very well with this card is Time of Troubles [FR-99], because then only level 6 champions would not be affected by this Breath Weapon. This card can be countered with cards such as Evade [DR-98] or Block [RR-99] (though the though of picturing a block of a Breath Weapon is a funny sight).
