Attacks that give a choice to opponent

Since Torturer is out I think a card where you have to choose between get the attack or give a bonus to opponent could be interesting. Like that for example :

5$ - Action - Attack
+1 card
+ 1 action

All other players may discard down to 3 cards in his hand.
If at least one don't : +2$



That could be interesting because once everyone has discarded, you cannot have +2$ anymore. But if they don't want to discard their cards and you have another in hand, you can win another 2$ or make them think twice.


I also thought of the same card with stronger attack but as a terminal to make it less easily spammable :

5$ - Action - Attack
+2$
All other players may gain a curse (or a copper if no curse available)
If at least one don't : +2$


I add the copper requirement to make the card not useless if there is no curse available anymore. I haven't tested those cards so far, just an idea I wanted to see in Dark Ages. Maybe there is a good reason no card of this type has been done and I don't see it.

What do you think ?

They fall apart in multiplayer. Too much politics for DXV's taste. "Well, I will say that the player should my right should discard and then not do it myself." "Should we discard, guys? She is ahead."

Of course, that makes sense. Maybe there would be a way to avoid that ? but I don't see what... except playing only VS games.
