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 Moscow-based Russian news site that Anton Nossik launched in 2000.

Nossik was an early figure of the Russian internet. The site closed in 2021 after difficulty attracting advertisers. Its Israeli sister service, Newsru.co.il, still runs.

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.
