What it does
On reveal: +1 Power to your cards in other lanes.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 3 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 2000
A home for films made with video game engines, with news, tutorials and releases, which later grew into a big gaming video network on YouTube.
Hugh Hancock started it in January 2000; the word came from a misspelling of 'machinema' that he and Anthony Bailey kept for its echo of anime. Its YouTube channel had over 5 million subscribers by 2012, and it shut down in February 2019.
In 2000: Opened in January with articles, interviews and tutorials; the Quake III film Quad God, released there, helped bring it a wider audience.
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.
Dead Links: Gone, but not forgotten. Mostly forgotten.
