What it does

On reveal: If an enemy card was revealed here earlier this round, +2 Power to this card.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 4 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 2002

A French cinema website with showtimes, news and film information, often called the French answer to IMDb.

It began as a phone line for Paris cinema times, with the easy number 40 30 20 10. The voice on the line, Patrice Baudrier, was parodied by the comedian Gad Elmaleh. Its website opened in 1997.

In 2002: Taken into Vivendi Universal's internet arm. On 26 April its television channel merged with a rival, Ciné Info.

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.
