What it does

On reveal: -2 Power to the strongest enemy card here.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 4 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Tech cards bend the rules: more RAM, cheaper cards and patches that weaken the other side.

The site, in 1996

A Norwegian website that published criticism of the Church of Scientology, run by Andreas Heldal-Lund. Its other address was xenu.net.

Launched in 1996, it was one of the first places online to host the secret Xenu documents. After a DMCA notice, Google dropped many of its pages from its index, then put them back after users complained.

Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
