What it does

Arrives with a shield. Ongoing: While this card keeps its shield, +2 Power to this card.

Ongoing is always on while the card is in play.

It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 3 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 1993

The first website ever made, at CERN, the research centre where Tim Berners-Lee built the World Wide Web.

Berners-Lee wrote the first web server and browser at CERN. The address went online in 1991, and in 2013 CERN restored the page. It is plain text, held together by hyperlinks.

Pioneer era, up to 1994. Grey pages, blue links and a browser called Mosaic. Images were optional. So was colour.

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