What it does
On reveal: Your opponent can't play here next round.
On reveal happens once, when the card flips.
A locked lane takes no cards next round.
It costs 3 RAM to play and brings 5 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
Microsoft's free web email service. It began as Hotmail and took the Outlook name in 2013.
Hotmail was one of the first webmail services. Microsoft bought it in 1997 for a reported $400 million, and by February 1999 it was the world's largest, with over 30 million active members.
In 1996: Launched commercially as HoTMaiL on 4 July, with 2 MB of free storage, nine staff and about $310,000 of venture funding behind it.
Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.
Megacorps: The giants. You've used most of them today.
