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 4 RAM to play and brings 8 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 2008
A French online investigative newspaper, created by Edwy Plenel, a former editor-in-chief of Le Monde.
It launched on 16 March 2008, funded by subscriptions alone, with no advertising. By January 2025 it had more than 245,000 paying subscribers, and a non-profit trust, Le Fonds pour une Presse Libre, now owns it.
Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
