Thanks for the reply. So does that mean that I can target an enemy model with 12 inches, and if successful, nominate a number of wounds that the target model receives and then the enemy player discards that number of cards.
I am making the assumption that I can target an enemy model because it states that the target model's controller discards 1 card for each wound. So if I cast it on Som'er or a mosquito, I would then have to discard cards as I am the target model's controller.
