What it does

No ability.

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

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 1996

A Canadian portal and website network, with Canadian Online Explorer in its header, now a subsidiary of Postmedia Network.

Sun Media and Rogers launched it together, but Rogers sold its share to BCE within the first year. In May 2008 comScore counted over 7.7 million unique visitors a month in Canada.

Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.

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