What it does

Ongoing: If you're losing here, +4 Power to this card.

Ongoing is always on while the card is in play.

It costs 5 RAM to play and brings 8 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Institutions cards protect your side, and come back strong when you're losing.

The site, in 2008

Edinburgh Libraries' online image library, set up to open up some of the 100,000 images in its collections.

It launched in February 2008 with an exhibition, Edinburgh Past and Present, of pictures chosen by locals such as the swimmer Kirsty Balfour and the impressionist Rory Bremner.

Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.

The Establishment: Governments, universities, libraries and archives. Very official.
