An error occurred while saving the comment Ziv Wities commentedAbsolutely. Adding cards throughout the game seems like a great way to gradually build up a terrific deck, well suited to the game setting and style. This would be particularly effective if combined with the requested feature of having existing Strength/Weakness cards available for selection as wild cards: https://storium.uservoice.com/forums/211322-general/suggestions/5802547-allow-existing-strengths-weaknesses-as-wild-cards

I share your frustration with this, but I think this is baked in pretty fundamentally in the Storium mechanism. If the narrator had to write sections half a dozen gradients of success and failure, it'd never end.
Personally, I'd trust the players and the narrator to factor this in "fairly." Remember, everybody's narrating and storytelling all along, explaining what the strengths contribute and how the weaknesses make things worse. So you're *already* adjusting the story according to the precise number (and sequence!) of the strength vs. weakness cards played.
Storium is certainly extremely susceptible to meta-gaming the conflict resolutions, but I don't think this suggestion would be a helpful improvement.
