How many cards does the Morale Drop move, and does the minimum of three still apply when hands are empty?

Question

Accepted Answer

The Morale Drop moves as many cards as remain in players' hands, but never fewer than three, even when every hand is empty. The reading that it moves nothing when hands are empty misreads the rule.
