What it does

Ongoing: If you're losing here, +4 Power to this card.

Ongoing is always on while the card is in play.

It costs 4 RAM to play and brings 5 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 2013

A Dutch open-source intelligence site analysing defence and warfare, started by Stijn Mitzer and Joost Oliemans.

The full name, Oryxspioenkop, ends in Afrikaans for 'spy hill'. The founders also wrote books on the Korean People's Army, and Oliemans had worked at Janes. Jakub Janovsky took over as administrator after they retired.

Modern era, 2009 on. Phones, feeds and cookie banners. The web got fast, flat and very sure about notifications.

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