Drama Cards Changes

The Drama Cards (see here) have been a big hit. I just have one issue with the current mechanic. Currently and understandably only the more powerful cards are being used as the players can only use so many cards in a session and there is no downside from using a more powerful card over a lesser one.

So for now I'm making the following changes. Per session usage is no longer based on number of cards but on points. There are four categories of cards: copper, silver, gold, and platinum. To use a card costs a number of points based on the category: copper: 1, silver: 2, gold: 3, and platinum: 4. The number of points each PC has depends on his level.

I'm sure the players will be a little disappointed.
