So I tested this out, and it works as you said (I did a dragon head come down from above and breathe on the combat like Golden Axe, only thing was this dis-embobied head showed that there should have been a body attached

). Just to recap, you can have as big a "coverage sprite" as you want (altho you prolly wanna stay within the combat frame...). Too bad my artwork is so-so
