What it does

No ability.

No ability, just Power. Sometimes that's all a homepage needs.

It costs 4 RAM to play and brings 8 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.

The site, in 1999

A Russian entertainment and lifestyle magazine, whose name means 'poster', with a website that outlived the print edition.

The magazine ran from April 1999 to December 2015 in Moscow, Saint Petersburg and 12 other cities, reaching about 1.5 million readers at its peak. Its website is among Russia's most popular media brands.

Dot-com era, 1999 to 2002. Glossy buttons, big money and a bug called Y2K. Some of these companies were worth billions for about a fortnight.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
