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

One of the first big free webmail services, made by Four11 Corporation.

For a while it battled Hotmail for the top spot. Yahoo! bought Four11 for $92 million in 1997 and built Yahoo! Mail on the RocketMail system.

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

Dead Links: Gone, but not forgotten. Mostly forgotten.
